Unfortunately, "Princess Kaiulani," though it's well cast and makes sometimes startlingly poetic use of the scenery, isn't a major improvement on "The Hawaiians"
There's a strict limit to how much drama there can be in a film when the writer-director has characters express ultimate fury via a polite leave-taking
A well-meaning attempt to examine the gradual overthrow of Hawaii's monarchy in the late 1800s, "Barbarian Princess" is hamstrung by stodgy storytelling and clunky dialogue
