I found this movie enlightening. I learned a lot about England and it’s rulers. I thought it was well worth watching

looked forward to seeing this one (between the oscar and a friend's raving about it), but i found it utterly lacking. boring. makes sense, i guess, because the friend is pretty boring, too (tho a nice guy)

This was good but the hype about it made it sound like it was better so my expectations were high.

Though I have no idea whether this film is historically accurate, it is well-acted and makes the viewer think deeply upon such things as humility, power, duty, etc. Mainly, to me, the historically accurate thing to remember here is that…

This is a superb movie with remarkable drama, punctuated with humor in good taste and brilliant color cinematography. The movie documents the travails of the man who did not want to be King of England who was bullied in his childhood into…

Good movie, albeit slow at times.

I watched the first 25 minutes and then turned it off. The film had considerable levels of good humour and entertainment value, but it was coupled with a sense of drab and boredom for me as a viewer that I simply could not get myself into…

A great period drama about the Royal family’s search to solve I like Colin Firth, Derek Jacobi, Geoffrey Rush and Guy Pearce alot. You can see how cruel King Henry VIII (Pearce) was to his brother “Bertie” (Firth). And the…

A wonderful movie that explores the relationship between a gifted and committed speech therapist and a king. Their relationship is fascinating and while the actor portraying the king won the Oscar I believe that the speech therapist was…

Very human portrayal of George VI & his speech therapist. Movie cast & crew did their homework.

This "feel good" film earns that allegory, the way only a true story can. It's well-produced, impeccably-acted and the comedic sprinklings are typically Brit. Subtle...and razor-sharp. The characters captured my empathy, perhaps because…

I remember quite enjoying The King's Speech in its first year of release. Having just seen it again (five years later), I'm even more impressed with the quality of the production and the captivating performances by Firth, Rush, and Carter.…

This should not have been rated R. Love the actors and the story. But there doesn't seem to be much of a definite and complex plot.
