Audience Member This is a delightful, small scale comedy for whom the word "quirky" could have been invented. The pathos gives it a depth which enables it to transcend what is essentially a caper movie. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/16/23 Full Review Audience Member My husband and I both loved this movie-- a mockumentary. It is an improbable roadtrip by a monarch and his staff, who are accompanied by a filmmaker. During the road trip, the King reflects upon duty, personal freedom, happiness, the loving as well as the dark side of life. There are scenes of beauty and transcendence-- characters occasionally look like a part of a still life or tableau. This movie manages to be funny-- sometimes laugh out loud funny and other times just droll-- as well as thoughtful. You are left contemplating what it means to be alive and free. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/19/23 Full Review Audience Member Excellente film, vraiment drôle, super bien joué et réalisé. On a du mal à penser que ce n'est qu'un film et pas un vrai documentaire qui foire complètement. On rigole, on réfléchit, on s'attache. Et surtout, une des bien trop rare fois où on a vraiment l'impression d'être face à de la culture proprement "belge", la vraie, celle du meltingpot audsi bien francophone que flamand qui fait la part belle au second degré. Je le conseille plus que vivement! :-) Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/09/23 Full Review Read all reviews
