RM 5h Excellent movie!! Great cinematography, good story line, great writing and acting. Takes the audience through laughter, feel good and tears, very well. Terrific subtitling for us that need to use, not too fast so as to miss the meaning, and not too slow as to unnecessarily stay on the screen too long. All in all a extremely well done production. See more Audry 6h A powerful and immersive cinematic experience. Theres a reason why this film is breaking records every week. The storytelling is tight, and the cinematography perfectly captures the tension of the era. I was completely immersed in the world of the King and his warden from start to finish. If youre looking for a well-crafted movie with stellar acting, this is it. See more Stefiam 14h Excellent film. Great cinematography, excellent performances, wonderful production quality.
