This films is sooooo nice.
Daphne Reynolds (Amanda Bynes) lives in Chinatown New York with her mum Libby (Kelly Preston). She has never seen her father.
One day she leaves her mum to go find her father. He is a british politican who is running for office.
She finds him, Henry (Colin Firth) is shocked to know he has a daughter.
Daphne has to try and fit in and be ladylike so that her father doesnt lose his votes.
But she stills has to be herself.
A very good film, girly film. At the end, it's a very touching scene with daphne and her father.
A good watch

A charming film. A simple story, well-crafted with strong performances from Colin Firth and Amanda Bynes. It's nothing deep but it doesn't pretend to be. It's definitely one for the ladies what with not one but two attractive guys. Of course the picture it presents of this country and the British is completely stereotypical but it doesn't spoil the film. It's so nice to see a film which doesn't rely on bad language or crude comedy to attract the teenage market. For me it ticks all the boxes.

I did find the sterotypes histreically inaccurate of us english -you can just see that an American made this one, and am also a little disapointed that Colin Firth allowed himself to be casted a such an amercian invented character! but is a light airy reasonably funny film that would suit teenage girls, although i guess this film was aimed at the American market due to the puns against English poeple with money and big house that work in goverment, plot line is typlical, girl goes to find estaranged father in another country who happens to be mega rich and posh, so she has to fit into his society - and does it badly, then deciedes thats shes has her own ways and tells him to like it or lump and then he of course follows her back to the USA and falls back in love with her mother and everyone lives happily ever after!. I found myself watching this with a blanket when i had flu, it's that kind of film. And of course it has Colin Firth in it!

Good teen movie
Bought it for my 13 year old daughter and we sat and enjoyed it together. Some good English actors and views of London. Pleasant, harmless, simple story- suitable for a young teen.

Feel-good film
Good film held together by the wonderful Colin Firth.An old theme of father meets long lost daughter but familiar places around London also attract.
