Movie Review: Your Highness

Your Highness


Starring Danny McBride, James Franco, Natalie Portman, Zooey Deschanel, Justin Theroux
Written by Danny McBride and Ben Best
Directed by David Gordon Green

Story: In a fairytale kingdom, two princes, one a dashing hero, the other a cowardly screwup must quest to win back the oldest brother's bride to be.

Review: I was unsure of what to expect going in, so I was hesitantly hopeful it would be good movie. While it has it's moments Your Highness is pretty bad. My guess is the premise sounded funnier than the results. No character stands out, and it is so crass that it could never be confused with The Princess Bride.

Comparable Movies: Take any stoner comedy and put it in medieval times.

Rating: ** out of 5

Had a few el oh el moments, but not enough to recommend to anybody.

May the Force be with you,
CHUD
