Movie Review: The King's Speech


The King's Speech
Canadian Home Video rating: 14A
Starring: Colin Firth, Geoffrey Rush, & Helena Bonham Carter
London Public Library Call #: F Kin
Rating: 5/5 Stars

This biographic film was absolutely amazing! Not only was it truly inspiring, but it was also very enjoyable. The movie pulls you in with its humour and empathy it draws from you for Colin Firth's character Bertie. At times I was laughing very hard (mostly the times where Firth's character was going through his speech therapy sessions) and at other times I held my breath as I felt bad for Bertie's speech impediment struggles. This movie would be a hit for both teenagers and adults as it is a movie where all individuals can relate to the main character, Bertie. Individuals can relate to the movie's plot line with a time they themselves had to overcome a struggle, disability, situation, etc. I would definitely recommend this movie for any teen or adult to watch as well as recommend this item to any public library teen and/or adult film collection. This movie was so great it definitely deserves 5 out of 5 stars. Love It!
