Movie Review: Once Upon a Holiday – 7 Points
When a Princess escapes her entourage to explore New York City over Christmas, she meets a young man who shows the beautiful stranger his side of the city.
Art is rubbish – you’re not allowed.
Aha, the love interest appears
Is harry a kid??
How old is this dude? How did he know her mother when she was a kid!?
Monterrey!?!?
Whingey much?!
Ding! Dead parent
Ding ding! Dead parent who loves christmas
I mean, I do get it. One hour isn’t that much to ask.
Oh! Harry is an old man…
What was that dust thing? Is he santa?
Old dude has a death wish to go out in a puff of smoke
Aww, Jack’s a good boy isn’t he?
Go on girl, do a sneak
Monserrai?
Did she steal clothes from a donation box?Q
Who’s Harry, an adoptive granddad?
Aha, he’s cupid and a magician and a santa
Who is everyone?
I like his style, eating chocolate coins, good chap
And she’s on the move. Uhm, no, it takes more of a pause than that to take a photo
Or they’ll all be blurred, come on
Why is everyone wearing blue and grey!?
Oh no, they stole her camera
Go go Jack!
Don’t stop to say sorry, just go!
You barely bumped the guy
Oh hey, you’re a pretty girl
Is she being braindead, oh, she is
Why is she being weird? Where did her phone go? What’s wrong with her.
He’s just a helpful dude.
Did they take all her stuff?!
Oh, OK, but still, why was she being weird
Oh man, imagine being, presumably sister to the king, but also being just the PR lady
You go George!
Yes…who *is* Simon, is he this tiny dude?
A tiny man of a family of bodyguards, what!?
I mean, if she went to college does she not know these things? Or did they bring teachers to her?
Who is Jack grumpy about? Why does he hate his sister’s boyfriend?
Is it because he’s a dweeb?
Aha, the boyfriend is a journalist, he’s gonna ruin the secret of Katie being in the city, I can sense the perceived Grand Betrayal/Tragic Misunderstanding
“Why is everyone interested in my personal life?” because it’s christmas in a romance movie
Poor Ross, poor dweeb
Come on girl, he is legit going somewhere, don’t make your bf feel worse
Is this the Santacon I’ve heard so much about?
What the fuck is wrong with her?
It’s a con of actual Santas, I love it
Katie Holiday!?!?
Aha, he is a magician, OK, that’s fun
Oh…she ditched the phone, that was stupid
Worst journalist ever…
Dude, you are so close to her face
“I don’t know what I would have done without you” You did nothing *with* him!?
She is so useless oh my god
Just let him help, you have no idea what you’re doing you useless woman
Aha, the stalkers are there
Ross, you have no chill…
HOT DOGS FOR BREAKFAST!?!
That is the second time he’s said “you’re kidding me” to Freddie
Ross…chill th efuck out
…yellow?
“You like photography” well done…
Hmmm, Jack, you’re intriguing
‘Cos you’re pretttttty
Good lad, well done concierge dude
Uh oh, the sister is here
Dude, you should have made him leave
Normally the transformation sequence happens when she puts on a dress, not casual clothes
Dude, it’s trousers
Ross, what are you doing?
Nothing more romantic than carrying a massive tree
Also, Katie, I’m sorry, I get it but still, you should check in, you’re being kind of a dick
Oh shit, they’re both dead
What!?
Also, don’t give him a coloured in book, what use is that?
Wow gretchen, you were a bitch
“A contact in the city” lulz
OK, so why was it the afternoon by the time they got to the gallery, when did she get up!?!
Also, why is she so unbothered by the loss of her camera!?
Oh man, Ross, what’s wrong with you, Tony, why aren’t you following her
Another day in New York, but who knows what time!?
Legit magic!?
“Stop those santas” Good idea mate
Also, her voice is so damn husky
He didn’t even find her!?
Worst bodyguards ever…
I wonder if the Princess Diaries writer Meg Cabot knows what she did when she wrote those books
“So I got a plane all the way here at short notice” I hope Monserrai paid for his flight…
A new lowest score! Wowee, this movie was pretty rubbish from what I recall. The princess was pretty dumb and not much made any sense. Just poorly thought through over all.
Love,
