Known as The Sun King, Louis XIV (Pierce Brosnan) is the most powerful and influential monarch on the planet. Obsessed with his own mortality and the future of France, Louis turns to his spiritual advisor, Père La Chaise (William Hurt), and the royal physician to help him obtain the key to immortality. Believing a mermaid (Fan Bingbing) contains a force that grants everlasting life, Louis commissions a young sea captain to search the seas and capture the mystical creature. Further complicating his plans is his orphaned daughter, Marie-Josèphe (Kaya Scodelario), who returns to court with an abundance of elegance and an inherent defiance of authority. With a rare solar eclipse approaching, Louis will discover where his daughter's true loyalties lie as he races against time to extract the mermaid's life-giving force.

Critics Consensus: A muddled mess that was clearly tinkered with in post-production to little avail, The King's Daughter is a royal disappointment.

Reviews

KGET-TV (Bakersfield, CA)

Rick Bentley

The most amazing piece of this production is the setting. Much of the movie was shot on the actual grounds of Versailles and that gives the production both a great feel of authenticity and grandeur.

The Inlander (Spokane, WA)

Chase Hutchinson

The best thing that can be said about The King’s Daughter is that it is mercifully short at 90 minutes, though even that far overstays its welcome.

The movie looks (and sounds) just terrific, even as it lurches rather inelegantly in pursuit of the magic the characters so clearly seek.

Its not nearly as rancid as its seven-year delay would indicate, especially considering all the truly dreadful movies that hit the multiplex seemingly nanoseconds after filming has completed.

For a sci-fi, fantasy movie, The Kings Daughter has some good moments but not enough to make it an excellent film.
