The King's Daughter Ratings & Reviews
Variety
Peter Debruge
The movie looks (and sounds) just terrific, even as it lurches rather inelegantly in pursuit of the magic the characters so clearly seek.
Film Frenzy
Matt Brunson
Its not nearly as rancid as its seven-year delay would indicate, especially considering all the truly dreadful movies that hit the multiplex seemingly nanoseconds after filming has completed.
FlickDirect
Allison Rose
For a sci-fi, fantasy movie, The Kings Daughter has some good moments but not enough to make it an excellent film.
Spectrum Culture
Joel Copling
Two stories are being told in this historical drama, and only one of them kind of works.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
It took eight years to make such a dud, I can only imagine how bad it was then.
Screen Zealots
Louisa Moore
If you're a fan of fantasy fables that belong in a RedBox kiosk, you may find it comforting to know that you could do only slightly worse than iThe King's Daughter/i.
The Movie Cricket
Sean P. Means
A slapdash mix of poorly conceived drama, cliched dialogue, hammy acting, shoddy special effects and the scars of too many attempts to salvage something in post-production. On the bright side, the filmmakers didnt let Pierce Brosnan sing.
Webster-Kirkwood Times
Lynn Venhaus
This Harlequin Romance meets fantasy fiction is given the glossy Hallmark treatment in a film that cant easily be described. Part legend, part adventure and all preposterous, this does the good people connected with it no favors.
Fox19 (Cincinnati, OH)

The idea that it sat this long...I wish it just sat on the shelf a bit longer.
The News-Herald (Willoughby, OH)
Mark Meszoros
The King's Daughter - even with all the zig-zagginess that gets us to its predictable climactic moment - is pretty forgettable.
FilmWeek (LAist)
Claudia Puig
A very colorful French bonbon with no substance, and it might just give you indigestion.
Chicago Sun-Times
Richard Roeper
The King's Daughter might be more fascinating than the movie itself, which has its moments of campy delights but is eventually sunk by the meandering story, some over-the-top performances and underwhelming special effects.
Associated Press
Mark Kennedy
January is often where bad films are stashed, but The King's Daughter isn't just bad, it's a cloying, cliched mess that's not worth even the slightest risk of contacting COVID-19 to see in theaters.
RogerEbert.com
Sheila O'Malley
It's a vast understatement to say that Vonda McIntyre's book deserved way better treatment than this.
AV Club
Charles Bramesco
Even the worst moments aren't flamboyantly awful enough to earn a full gawk; they play closer to off-key, the clear result of post-production tinkering.
Newsday
Rafer Guzman
A generic combination of royal-themed fairy tale and magical fantasy.
Tribune News Service
Katie Walsh
What is obvious is that no amount of time on the shelf or tinkering with the special effects that would have been enough to salvage the hot, chaotic and just plain kooky mess that is "The King's Daughter."
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
Even as we know it's dumb, they make us genuinely care.
Wall Street Journal
Joe Morgenstern
Instead of The Shape of Water this is a stream of drivel.
New York Times
Natalia Winkelman
Once upon a time, an action-adventure drama began production. Nearly eight years, a title change and a new distribution plan later, the movie finally sees the light of day. Nothing about it feels worth the wait.
