Grace of Monaco (2014)

It's no definitive masterpiece but it's damn close.

Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.

Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

This movie has sucked me into watching it twice now and, you guys, I'm mad as hell. The trailer leads you to believe that it will be this dramatic re-telling, albeit largely fictional, of Grace Kelly's life when all it really depicts is one or two inconvenient situations that she was faced with. The first time I watched it I was so disappointed and bored by the end but I decided not to review it because I am a Nicole Kidman fan. But then the unthinkable happened. This movie is so boring that I forgot I'd already seen it before and watched it again only to fall victim to the same torturous boredom AGAIN! Do you see what I'm saying, it's that boring I forgot about it. This movie is 1 hour and 43 minutes of stifling yawns and trying to stay awake all while just waiting patiently for it to get even remotely more interesting. What a let down.

it is too easy to criticize it. because it is only glamorous homage to a legend of Hollywood. nothing more. the costumes, the lights, Nicole Kidman herself as inspired choice for remind Grace Kelly, Tim Roth as an ambiguous leader looking the better manner for solve the crisis and drive his marriage, the naive crumbs of conspiracy and the characters as sketches are proofs for accept the film only as nice exercise for remind an old fairy tale in its dramatic aspect. it is not a great film. but it is useful trip in atmosphere of a small European state who remains almost a mystery under the sparkles of a lot of seductive activities.

"At some point every fairy tale must end." Grace Kelly (Kidman) gave up Hollywood in exchange for marriage to Prince Rainier (Roth). Years later she is unhappy and contemplating a return to acting when Alfred Hitchcock offers her a great role. While she is thinking about the movie Charles De Gaulle is making moves to invade and take Monoco for the french. She must now decide if she should return to acting to make herself happy, or help her husband and country fight off the inevitable invasion. I knew nothing about the real story of Grace Kelly and what happened after she left Hollywood so I'm not sure how much of this is accurate so I can't speak to that. Much like the Diana movie with Naomi Watts the movie is good but nothing amazing and not one of the best biopics ever made. The best part of the film is Kidman's performance. The most interesting part to me was the historical events portrayed in this. The french planning an invasion and what Monoco did to try and prevent it. Being a history buff I really liked that aspect and as for the rest of the movie, I thought it was good but not really anything to watch more than once. Overall, a very OK movie with a great performance by Kidman. I give it a B.

Sorry Daily News Critic, your review was all wet. I found this to be a very good film centering around political intrigue and how Grace Kelly rose to distinction by aiding her husband during a dispute with France that could have invariably led to the invasion of the principality.Kelly rose to the situation in finally realizing that her years as a Hollywood Oscar-winning glamor queen were over when she wed Prince Rainier and that it was certainly the time to fulfill her responsibilities as his princess.Nicole Kidman was absolutely mesmerizing in the title role. Her final speech before an audience honoring the Red Cross was terrific and led to a less tension between the two nations.
