电影《公主日记》读后感(英文版)

The Book Report Of The Princess Diaries

This week I watched a movie named The Princess Diaries in our spoken English class. The movie is about a 16-year-old girl named Mia. She lives with her divorced mother who once married to a prince，who was Mia’s fathe r. Mia did not know she was a princess until one day her grandmother, Genovia’s Queen visited her mother and her. Mia is lost when she is faced with such a huge responsibility to run a country. She is the kind of girl who can not even fit in. In fact if people are not being polite, she could be called a nerd. Only a very ‘special’ girl is her good friend who criticizes Mia all the time especially after she knew Mia was a princess. Mia at first refuses to be a princess because she is not confident. She is really not good at speech .She always gets nervous that she even faints or runs away when speaking in public. However, Mia has to take the " princess lessons" and she needs to be a good princess in three weeks. At first, she feels embarrassed to admit that she is a princess. One day she finds out the dairy her father gave her as a birthday present, which said" The brave may not live forever, but the cautious do not live at all." She feels encouraged and attempts to be a princess; however, good things never go smoothly and she’s caught with a bunch of guys and newspapers exaggerate everything. She finds it hard to deal with the life of being a princess. On the day that her grandma is to announce the heir to the throne, Mia retreats and wants to flee away from becoming the queen of the country. However, that is a real rainy day and finally the

pour-down wakes her up and she hurries to the palace and makes a great speech that she is the one for the throne. Then things are getting better, the princess and prince live happily ever after.

Anne Hathaway plays the role of Mia. Anne is good, but she acts so corny or cheesy in this one. It’s such a girly movie and doesn't have any deep values that movies are supposed to have. Well, it's just one of those girly movies, meaningless and only good for a few laughs. The whole movie was so unreal and of course movies are never real, but it’s just… not good. Some of the movie parts annoy me a lot. How can the movie be so corny?

I really don’t like it.

Although I do not like thi s movie very much, but if I see it rationally, it’s still watchable and tolerable. It's also so predictable that if you snooze in the middle of it, you won't miss anything when you wake up. This is one of the few "kid's movies" that I wouldn't hesitate to watch with a kid, because it’s about how an ugly duckling becomes a swan. When we were kids it’s always great to know that every ordinary girl can become someone special. Girls will never lose hopes and try to be as amazing as possible .To some extent, that’s still an okay movie anyway.
