Movie Review: Your Highness

damn you Portman, damn you...

I like stupid/raunchy/stoner comedies as much as the next guy. I didn't like Your Highness however. Why? Why didn't I like this movie? Glad you asked. The problem has to do with this trailer I saw last year:



Pretty funny stuff right? Yeah, too bad those were all the funny lines from the entire movie. Seriously, that same trailer than initially sparked my interest in Your Highness ultimately RUINED the film for me. Once you've seen that Red Band trailer, you've basically already seen the movie. As much as I like viewing Natalie Portman's bare cheeks on the big screen, I seriously wish I had passed on this flick. Had I not been privy to to all the best gags beforehand, I might have given Your Highness a B- (what, I grade films now?!) instead of a D+. The special effects were pretty cool though in case that counts....oh wait, it's supposed to be a comedy. Nevermind.
