ThedevilChoose When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

TrueHello Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

Robert Joyner The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

Kinley This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

m-ozfirat This series explores the possibility of what the Royal family could be like dominated by a youthful dynasty in the present. It examines the possibility of a clash with the traditional protocol and the modern standards of the Post Millennium and the challenges this can bring to a traditional elite. The Characters are well developed and suited for the series to fit in to this paradigm whilst being genuinely funny and not serious. Their is the Queen Mother played by Jane Asher who is loving but stern to keep the family in order to live up to responsibility. The King who does his duties sincerely but likes to live like a playboy along with his Mischievous little brother and Frivolous little sister. Then their is the astute but scheming older sister who was more suited and had a claim but was unlucky. The staff and cabinet are just as colourful and full of strife in comical situations with their duties. The show should of gone for another 2 seasons as there could of been more potential. The first series was good as it showed a modern minded and energetic monarch settle in with his own character to his role and the political challenges and demands of that role in a changing time alongside historical tradition. Apart form the young Kings personal experiences it could of covered European and Global politics such as America, Arabia and the emerging nations. The changes in Britain today and relatives that were ex-monarchs. It was cancelled due to low ratings. They probably think reality TV is more entertaining and thats what gets higher ratings. Humour has lost its intelligence and the early cancellation of this is an example.

jackfertig "The Palace" looks like one of those American post-adolescent dramas where beautiful young 20-somethings are scheming and screwing at every opportunity. Even the role of the queen, recently widowed, seems to have been written for Joan Collins.Cheap, tawdry, and ridiculous though it is it makes amusing fluff, a pleasant diversion. If you want to laugh at young actors struggling a little too hard to look like they're taking themselves seriously and roll your eyes at the absurdity this could be a lot of fun. In fact, one has to wonder how much the creative staff for this silliness just saw the whole thing as a spoof. If anyone meant this show to be taken seriously it's an epic fail, but as a take-off on American dramas, it's really quite funny.

Kaya7 I caught this, a couple of nights ago, and I thought it was great fun. It is kitsch, fluffy and seemingly unrealistic: just what you need after a hard day. There is the young King, who is basically a nice guy trying to do the right thing (but is a duck out of water really). There is the party hard brother, who is a scream; the pantomine villain older sister, who is determined to usurp little bro; and the gin swilling mother. That's just the family, the staff are even more bonkers, from the maids, to the king's assistant, who is supposedly colluding with a journalist to write a 'tell all book'; but you can tell she is developing one hell of a soft spot for HM. This is just good fluffy fun: you can see where the plot is going, but I didn't care because it was perfect glitzy escapism.

ciancaitlin From the pre-title sequence to the opening titles themselves, one's first impression of "The Palace" is that it is a series modelled on "The West Wing".Like the aforementioned US political drama, "The Palace" follows the day-to-day lives of a fictional head of state and his staff, but while The West Wing gives almost equal status to each member of its ensemble cast, The Palace is focused, primarily on the show's main character, King Richard and the exploits of his close family.The first episode has clearly set the benchmark for the rest of the series; a series which promises to afford us all a glimpse at an alternative monarchy, which in the case of "The Palace" is personified by a young, charismatic and lad-about-town King, who has been thrust into the glare of the world's press, without warning.ITV1 certainly has the pedigree to produce a series of this calibre, if its recent success with "The Queen" (2006) is anything to judge by and while the series does not allude to portraying real events, certainly promises to be as equally gripping.
