Carlos I Jun 24 "King Ralph" is undeniably a dumb movie, and frankly, I don't care one bit. It's a fun, silly, and ultimately harmless family flick that delivers exactly what it promises: a good laugh without taking itself too seriously. See more Finnegan H Jun 10 This is just unrealistic. This old man commit all of the seven deadly sins in one hour and a half. See more Judith M Jan 1 If you are looking for some inconsequential entertainment, this is delightful, especially if you are an Anglophile with a sense of humor. If you don't have a sense of humor, this isn't for you. It has no pretenses as art or a deeply significant movie, it's just a charming bit of entertainment. The cast is outstanding, with John Goodman representing the crass American, and Peter O'Toole as the impeccable English gentleman. The supporting cast is equally excellent. Recommended for fun.

I watched for the first time in over a decade earlier this evening and found it engaging, amusing, and even a bit heartwarming in spots. So, just out of curiosity, I decided to look up its rating in Rotten Tomatoes. I was unsurprised by the reaction of the critics, because they have their collective thumbs up their collective orifices and they seldom reflect the tastes of normal moviegoers. I must confess to being shocked that the audience ratings were similar to those of the critics. King Ralph was not designed to be high art. I am familiar with high art. I'm a professional musician. I perform it and listen to it. But I do not expect the pop songs to which my students listen for relaxation and entertainment to exhibit the profundity of a Beethoven symphony. King Ralph is a pleasant diversion. It's good for a chuckle or two. Because it accomplished what it was intended to do, I rated it fairly highly. See more Joseph H 01/04/2024 This is an AMAZING film. I am shocked by the low ratings. Classic 'fat guy saves the world' situation; which we all love. I for one found it to be a realistic representation of what would happen if a fat, dumb American became king of the greatest country on the planet. Has everything: action, class, romance, and yes, even a little bit of DANCE!!! Fun for the whole family :) See more Read all reviews
