    Apparently this was filmed in 2014… I’m so sad it didn’t get its MOMENT in 2015 cause it definitely feels of that time with its pop music and dresses that were taken right off the racks at Macy’s. It’s perfectly homoerotic and the actual love interest is as boring as I…

    "Die Tochter des Königs" wurde bereits 2014 gedreht und kam erst 2022 in die Kinos. Wie wir wissen, erblicken immer wieder mal Filme NICHT das Licht der Kinoleinwände und verschwinden in irgendwelchen "Giftschränken" der Filmstudios. Dieser Film hier ist ein…

Only Kaya Scodelario rises above the mess, working hard to try and craft an earnest and accomplished heroine that is by far too interesting for the rest of the boring dolts in the story.

January is often where bad films are stashed, but “The King’s Daughter” isn’t just bad, it’s a cloying, cliched mess that’s not worth even the slightest risk of contacting COVID-19 to see in theaters.
