The Kings Speech
Prince Albert has a speech problem and it will be difficult when he is due to take over the throne because the country needs a king to communicate. Queen Elizabeth is hiring a psychologist named Lionel Lugo to help Albert overcome this dilemma. Soon after, the relationship developed between the two men and became friends where Lugo used unconventional means to teach the king how to speak confidently to overcome that disaster that was causing a major disaster.

Simple, moving and incredibly enjoyable.

A polite, occasionally rousing, and more often than not, boring affair.

The King's Speech is the rare work of art that's also an immense crowdpleaser.
February 23, 2016
It is a film that knows its limits -- and then transcends them almost casually, but with resonant and powerful effect.
February 26, 2017
It's a handsomely mounted, finely acted and, above all, intelligent drama that puts flesh on the bones of historical figures.
February 20, 2015
The film is richly rooted, with splendid trappings, including pea-soup fogs. For all the pomp and protocol, it's an intimate story about a scared man who must find his voice if he is to rise, in regal stature, above his epaulets.

A powerful back story does not necessarily improve a movie, but The King's Speech has a pretty irresistible one. It might even end with a dramatic night at the Oscars in February.

It's the kind of role that's tailor-made for Colin Firth.
February 20, 2015
Watching Firth agonisingly stammer his way through the closing speech at the Empire Exhibition at Wembley Stadium in 1925 is a masterclass in acting.
February 16, 2013
Classic, rousing entertainment loaded with both humor and poignancy.
February 20, 2015
It's an uplifting audience pleaser that also showcases film-making arts and crafts at an exalted level.

In The King's Speech, Colin Firth once again reminds us of what a great actor he is.
