Your Highness
 

Funniest movie I've seen in a long time. The comedy is right up my alley, and it's set in a fantasy/medieval realm, which is a favorite setting of mine. Honestly, the plot really wasn't bad, and if the directors weren't out to make a hilarious movie they could have created some in depth Magic-esque sort of film or graphic novel. "Your Highness" borrowed off of a ton of different sci-fi/fantasy films. James Franco is cool, and Natalie Portman is great as usual. And not to be "dirty" per se, but as a supporter of ladies of the natural variety (if you follow me) you will *not* be disappointed.

So, go see it!

Saw this movie. Enjoyed it from beginning to finish. I laughed myself all the way through it. The accents are hilarious and the actors blend current slang and profanity in with them which is funny in itself.

Though there is nothing inherently funny about rape, Danny McBride approaches the subject in a way that is so damn hilarious. There is a scene where McBride's character is asking his brother (Franco's character) what Franco would do if his fiance were raped. So funny.

Plot always matters. That being said, it would not have mattered to me what the plot of this movie was. The jokes carried the movie for me. It was just fun.

I love David Gordon Green, but after reading all of the absolutely abysmal reviews this film is getting, I'll wait to Netflix it. And considering how much it bombed this weekend, that shouldn't be too long.

Understandable. Dumb and dumber got mixed reviews as well when it opened. Personally, I love dumb and dumber. It is exactly that, dumb, but hilarious no matter how many times I watch it.
Your Highness is not a great movie by any means. It is just funny as sh*t

So how does it rank with Dumb and Dumber?

Dumb and dumber is one of my all time favorites. Seen it more times than I can count and it is always great. It was probably premature to compare D&D with Your Highness at this point though. I think Dumb and Dumber is better but the point is, make your own judgment whether you like it or not. Don't let reviews from other people shape your opinions.

Your Highness is currently sitting at a 25% on rotten tomatoes. Nowhere near "mixed" reviews. I also never really got into Dumb and Dumber. Not my kind of humor (same with 90% of everything Jim Carey does...).

I too love "Dumb and Dumber" and think it is way better than the overrated "The Hangover." I've been wanting to see "Your Highness" and it seems we may have similar tastes here. I'll check it out and see how it fares with me.
