What a great performance by both Firth and Rush. I agree it doesn't deserve an R rating.
Colin Firth's performance was so real, it was painful just to watch the agony King George must have gone through just to speak. He had the throat motions and jaw muscles down perfect. I would highly recommend this movie.
It was moving, with comedic touches ,a true story of the human condition that none of us have it all, and affliction can strike any of us no matter our family background.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

The acting from all cast members was superb. The history lesson was interesting. But the movie was drawn out and downright boring. I would only recommend that this movie be viewed when released on dvd. Don't waste your time and "precious money" to see this film in the theatre.
No, I do not recommend this movie.

This is the best movie I've seen in years! Excellent script, tight editing, and stellar performances. The R rating is pretty silly; the only thing "R" about it is a scene with a liberal use of profanity, all to make a point rather than for shock effect. It's actually a funny scene, and while the words may offend the most sensitive, it is a lot less offensive than most R films with their heavy quotient of sex and/or violence or grim subject matter. It's more like the effect of a George Carlin comedy number: pretty inoffensive, I thought.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

A wonderful movie, extraordinary casted and directed; it's refreshing to watch C. Firth, J. Rush, and H.B. Carter performances; but from a technical point of view is where this movie excels (direction, editing, cinematography, and even musical score); it is not very far from an historical point of view as some critics have said, and gives good opportunity to newer generations to learn about this time in UK history.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

It's highly enjoyable to see such a well-acted movie giving us a glimpse of the royal family of England in the turbulent events of the 1930's. This forms the context of the engaging story of "Bertie" the Duke of York and future King George VI and his friendship with Lionel Logue, who enabled him to overcome a terrible stammer. It's a great period piece with a great story — really heart-warming.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

If for no other reason, Colin Firth.
I found myself struggling along with him to get the words out. The dance that the royal and the commoner did to maintain their respect while overcoming the boundaries between them that had been in place for ages was fascinating to watch
Thanks to the Weinsteins for presenting these gifted actors in this slice of history.

This movie is a must see. A snapshot of England's Royal Family in the 1930's and how King George VI came to be king. Listen carefully for the one liners which are woven through out the movie. The trust and later friendship that develops between Lionel & Bertie (King Geo) is most wonderful.

Wasn't really interested in watching this movie until I saw some of the reviews and nominations for best picture. I am very glad that I did.
While it was hard to watch the King's stammer, when it came time to address the country of having to enter WWII, you had a sense of pride that he was able to overcome his speech impediment. It was a journey through the adult life of a King and his trust, which needed to be hard earned, to an Australian speech specialist.
Yes, I recommend this movie.

I wasn't sure I wanted to see it or not, but I'm certainly glad I did. While it was painful to watch the King fight to get his words out, it was a excellent "feel good" movie. The characters were charming and easy to like. The costumes were gorgeous and the scenery spectacular. I would recommend this movie to anyone who wants to be entertained by great story telling.

This wasn't what I had originally expected, it was much better, the dialogue between the King and Lionel (gives too much away if I address Lionel by his function) This would be a good movie for younger kids ONLY if they have a learning disability, was only 1 point when the movie seemed drawn out but that 10 minutes window is quickly overshadowed. Go enjoy and notice the banter between the king and Lionel, very good
