Sophia Grace & Rosie’s Royal Adventure isn’t a movie made for me or even remotely targeting the 21-35 age bracket and instead is aimed squarely at young girls who oft have dreams of becoming a princess, so on that front, this movie might be satisfying but anyone older or who don’t have children, this is not something you will revisit anytime soon.

PLOT SUMMARY
The twosome of Sophia Grace & Rosie became an Internet sensation with their remarkable viral videos (never seen a single one). Then the duo sang and danced their way to stardom on “The Ellen De Generes Show”, where they regularly continue to report from the red carpet. Now see the little performers in their very own original live-action movie. The girls are sent to Switzelvania as Ellen’s correspondents to cover the coronation of a new queen. When they encounter three very different princesses competing for the throne. Sophia Grace & Rosie hatch a royal plot to help the best candidate win.
SPECIAL FEATURES – 1.25/5
This release comes with a semi-glossy and glittery slip cover. Inside is the DVD Copy and a code to redeem for the Digital Copy (Ultraviolet only).
Pink! Pink! Pink!: The Story of Pink (3:30; HD) is a behind-the-scenes featurette on the girls’ obsession with the color pink and some factoids on it. Yay.
The Royal Music Jam: Laying Down the Beats with Sophia Grace & Rosie are singing recordings for five songs.
Favorite Moments from “The Ellen DeGeneres Show” (4:05; HD) has some best-of clips from the girls’ appearances.
Bloopers (4:16; HD) – If the movie wasn’t enough, now you can see some line-flubs and on-screen antics along with other cast members.
VIDEO – 4.5/5
Sophia Grace & Rosie’s Royal Adventure storms the scene onto Blu-ray presented with a 1.78 widescreen aspect ratio and a 1080p high-definition transfer. The picture actually looks pretty good with pops of color throughout and detail levels appear to be sharp. There were no obvious signs of artifacting or pixilation.
AUDIO – 4.25/5
The movie comes with a DTS-HD MA 5.0 track which is more than serviceable between the dialogue scenes and the musical sequences where singing voices come through with clarity and depth. It’s nothing outstanding but a solid lossless track nonetheless.
OVERALL – 2.5/5
Listen, Sophia Grace & Rosie’s Royal Adventure isn’t a movie made for me or even remotely targeting the 21-35 age bracket and instead is aimed squarely at young girls who oft have dreams of becoming a princess, so on that front, this movie might be satisfying but anyone older or who don’t have children, this is not something you will revisit anytime soon. The Blu-ray at least has good audio/video transfers while the bonus material is thin on content.
