It's a romcom

Don't take this as anything more than a romcom . It's great it's funny and full of nice warm characters mostly !!

There's some slapstick stuff and it all works .

Forget the negatives on here and just watch it for the romantic fun that it is !!! Nothing more than that.

Eight for a forgotten genre

Congratulations. Romantic comedy, serious derivatives. Nice cast, hilarious and moving scenes, not a shallow piece of art. Because it's a fairy tale, and we want to belive. Even when one denies it all. Try it again. I was lucky to have chosen to watch. We have to insist on this kind of midfull, light approach to serious issues. Au revoir.

Don't let the killjoys ruin it

I hate romcoms, I find them shallow and boring. I'm not a big Rogan fan either. However, moderately enjoyed this one.

It wasn't great, but the jokes worked and didn't work too hard to get a chuckle. There was a bit of preaching about ideologies, but it was necessary for some of the jokes and plot to play. The climax (literally) gag was a bit unexpected, but it, again, wasn't gratuitous once the point was made. Overall, I liked it.

Beautiful, perfect, humor filled movie

A must watch, a treat altogether. Charlize Theron and Seth Rogen, actors way too different in their acting has really made their roles entertaining. Comic timings of Seth as always is perfect and Charlize has performed equally well. It has everything an entertaining movie requires and at no point you will feel any boredom.

Trivia
Eric Eisenberg reported on Cinemablend that during the Los Angeles press day for Long Shot, the movie's director, Jonathan Levine, and its stars, Charlize Theron and Seth Rogen, all related that after Andy Serkis accepted the role of Parker Wembley, he then developed an extensive prosthetic makeup design for the character--a makeup regimen that required hours a day to execute--even though nobody asked him to do that. Rogen remembered, "we offered him the role, and then he was like, 'Okay.' And then he started sending ideas for what he would look like. And we were like, 'What do you mean? I thought he kind of looked a lot like Andy Serkis.' But he was like, 'No, I got this whole thing.' And we were like, 'Whatever, man!'"

Goofs
When Charlotte Field enters the dinner in Sweden the Royals are already present. The monarch always enter events such as this last, and would never be part of the greeting party.

Charlotte also does not bow her head to the monarch and consort and is actually bowed to by a Prince, not the other way around.

Quotes
Fred Flarsky: [wearing traditional Swedish dress as a joke played at his expense] Okay, but you dressed me like Cap'n Crunch's Grindr date, so I'm going to drink and enjoy the part.
