Ratings
Once Upon a Prince is a Hallmark Channel Original Movie. It is rated 6.4/10 on IMDb and 4.5/5 on Vudu. It can be viewed on the Hallmark network. There’s a slight difference between the novel and the movie. The way in which the novel portrays Sussana’s state after her differences with the prince is quite heartbreaking. This makes an emotional impact on the readers and sets the tone for her future. Second thing that is missing is Stephen, Nate’s brother. Despite all these differences, the film is just fabulous.
