Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
Kilcher is lovely. But sadly, Ka'iulani is a perfunctory biopic of the sort one might encounter on television during Women's History Month.

rotten:
Watching Princess Kaiulani, you're not sure whether to weep for the title character or the actress playing her.
– Ty Burr,
Boston Globe,
20 May 2010
rotten:
An uneven film that, by trying to satisfy parents with political drama and older children with a love story, leaves both parties wanting.
– Rachel Saslow,
Washington Post,

rotten:
As the doomed princess, Q'orianka Kilcher ... has imperially striking features but limited acting skills.
– Peter Rainer,
Christian Science Monitor,

rotten:
There are too many swooping violins, too many trite generalizations, too few moments that throw a light on history and turn it into art.
