Critic Reviews

Despite its faltering touch with the story's darker, more melodramatic threads, Her Majesty nonetheless proves winning overall thanks to a predominant emphasis on nostalgia, whimsy (heroine's royal audience fantasies include one full-on production number) and droll-to-broad humor.Full Review

Her Majesty is the kind of movie where you start out smiling, and then smile more broadly, and then really smile, and then realize with a sinking heart that the filmmakers are losing it.Full Review

Roger Ebert
Chicago Sun-Times

To earnest for its own good. Sincere and heartfelt, it's the kind of family film that might be at home on cable.Full Review

Carla Meyer
San Francisco Chronicle

It's as if Gordon feared his film's none-too-subtle suggestion that kids should ask questions and decided to provide answers instead, tying up his story with a phony happy ending.Full Review

Keith Phipps
The Onion A.V. Club

Unimaginative, exasperating film, hopefully but fruitlessly recycled after the success of 2002's ebullient Whale Rider.Full Review
