Your Highness is awfully vulgar fun when it works, which is much of the time (although it could've benefited from a few judicious cuts here and there). Read full review

The belly laughs do come, many of them courtesy of the mechanical bird companion. Read full review

While the chemistry between characters is impressive and the comic delivery spot-on, the jokes feel unoriginal. Read full review

By comparison to this effort, "Pineapple Express" seems like a model of thoughtful maturity. Read full review

Full disclosure: I have to say I did laugh during Your Highness. Twice, I think. Read full review

There is little worse in the movie world than a spoof that falls flat on its over-costumed butt, but that's what you get with Your Highness. Read full review

(IMHO) One of the funniest/raunchiest movies of all time! Kenny Powers goes on a Medievel Quest. Critics trashed it (cuz they couldn't process how this was INTENDED to be a joke?)

McBride is the same guy he always is..but to see "serious" actors like Natalie Portman, Damien Lewis & Toby Jones yuck it up is even more funny. Didn't realize it bombed at theaters so bad but I dobt sutdio pimped it much. Caught it on PPV when it dropped ten years ago..and saw it on HBO last night and stopped down for a revisit..still a raunchy blast!… Expand

I cant decide about giving this movie 5 or 6. It was ok overall but some jokes were really bad and some were not jokes but plain insults. I watched this because of starring actors but i cant say it was a good movie.

Everybody though this movie was funny, but like did you watch the same think as I did, Poor Choices all over the thing. Natalie Portman and James Franco were not in their right minds when they accepted to do this movie, honestly.

The jokes are predictable and lame, as its about as coherent as a bad spoof flick. I'm beginning to think Pineapple Express contained the first and last example of a funny Danny McBride.

This movie was horrible! Disgusting! I am so upset I saw it. I hated it! Please do not go see this movie. Save your time and money. Very bad. Not funny at all. Very stupid and annoying.
