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.

Watching Firth agonisingly stammer his way through the closing speech at the Empire Exhibition at Wembley Stadium in 1925 is a masterclass in acting.

It's an uplifting audience pleaser that also showcases film-making arts and crafts at an exalted level.
February 26, 2017
It's a handsomely mounted, finely acted and, above all, intelligent drama that puts flesh on the bones of historical figures.

It is a film that knows its limits -- and then transcends them almost casually, but with resonant and powerful effect.

It's the kind of role that's tailor-made for Colin Firth.

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.

Classic, rousing entertainment loaded with both humor and poignancy.

The King's Speech is the rare work of art that's also an immense crowdpleaser.

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.

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