-My comments
Because I love Anne Hathaway, I choose this movie. It’s a one of best Disney movie for me. Mia is so cheerful girl and makes others around her happy. And I like specially friendship between Mia and Lilly.
This movie is based the novel whose title of the first volume published in 2000. But it is different from the movie. So I want to try it.
I watched also “The Princess Diaries 2: Royal Engagement”. Its ending isn’t same as I thought, but I like it so much!! If you like the first Princess Diaries, you will like it.



And Chris Pine is appearing in this movie. I didn’t know about him before I watched it, but “Chris Pine as Nicholas” is very cool and handsome!
