Who didn't want to be a princess when they were younger? Very stereotypical but funny and great nonetheless!

I haven’t watched since I was 11 but I still remember the plot and characters vividly. That has to mean something, right? Love this movie!

Some questionable themes of beauty & femininity, but loved it growing up & overall a good, nostalgic coming of age movie. Perfectly casted!

A heartwarming story with funny moments throughout. Maybe it's the nostalgia, but I adore this film as an adult as much as I did as a child.
