In many ways this is aTaylor Zakhar Perez plays the son of an American president (Uma Thurman) while Nicholas Galitzine is cast as an English prince. Their initial awkward incident marks the beginning of their attraction to each other. In many ways this is a traditional love story with lots of longing, much kissing and even some sex. What makes this one special is the compelling chemistry between the 2 these actors, who both prove handsome and utterly charming. It's interesting that this duo must confront their coming out, when they live in such a woke world (female president and Latinx husband). The romantic tone goes from bright to dramatic as they cope with their situation, but despite the absurdity of the whole situation, it's still a sweet gay romance. NOTE: Fast forward thru the credits for one final joke.… Expand

Romantic comedies should be just that; romantic and funny. Red, White & Royal Blue possesses these elements.

Red, White & Royal Blue possesses these elements. However, it also bears an overly sugarcoated quality that, at several points, renders much of the onscreen developments to feel artificial instead of genuinely emotional.

This leads to a situation where what should naturally flow – especially given its predictable premise involving two individuals initially at odds and later falling in love – comes across as an overly preplanned sequence of events.
Unfortunately, this results in moments where the entire narrative seems quite implausible and a bit ridiculous.

While the film's intentions are laudable, the execution follows a weathered recipe that has been exhausted over time.… Expand

This is a silly (rather contrived but most romantic comedies are) romance story no worse then Notting Hill, Pretty Woman, Failure to Launch, etc. Only with a gay theme; no real message pushed.

Wouldnt have watched but Im a huge fan of Uma Thurman and she does well with it all; and (I hate to admit this but) Nicholas Galitzine is rather cute and that roped me in... Hes a decent actor and hope to see him in more things.

Im not into romantic comedies but if you are, give this a watch. It doesnt do anything new but it does do what it needs to right.… Expand

A predictable but very charismatic sugar water cliché. The film has a typical construction of films of this genre, it is a story with a very predictable outcome.

The film has a typical construction of films of this genre, it is a story with a very predictable outcome. The cinematography of the film is very good and the photography is quite sophisticated, sometimes even evocative, matching the lives of the characters. The main plot involving the novel is well constructed. The performances of the two main actors are good and their characters, despite being different from each other, end up complementing each other, and they also have a lot of chemistry. In general, the supporting characters are good even though they don't have focus. The other parallel plots are well developed and everything there has motivation, they are not matters thrown in just to complement. It's a little film that's nothing different but well produced and very enjoyable to watch.… Expand
