Fantastic film filled with class and brilliance

Rating: 9/10 (23 January 2011)

I went to the movies last night with a group of friends. I didn't care what we saw but one of them picked "The Kings Speech." I got to say I had heard great reviews about it but wasn't particularly interested in seeing it, it honestly seemed dull to me.
Well it turns out that it was a fantastic film. An extremely powerful movie filled with class and excellent acting performances. Colin Firth was sensational as was Geoffrey Rush. It was a really wonderful movie and very inspiring. It also was a bit funny at times. Michael Gambon also did a wonderful job as King George V.
A tip though, do not go to see it at 10PM at night like I did when you've already had a full day because it does move slow at times. I honestly probably would've enjoyed it more if I saw it during the day. If all you want is guns going off and cars exploding, this isn't the movie for you, but if you want a well told story with amazing actors, this is what you want to see, an easy 9/10 for me.
