one word - boring

Rating: 2/10 (7 May 2012)

i have seen the German version and its awful. i can't understand the hype about this film. its a story that should be told in 3 minutes, not in never ending hours! without any question the actors are great, Colin firth acts brilliant... but that doesn't matter. not even Colin and a really good soundtrack save this movie. (these are the two stars).
the end of the film is not surprising. the hero-king with the great speech... great. i haven't heard anything about the story before i saw the film and now i don't wonder. if someone will write a book about this, (s)/he needs about 2-4 sheets. i don't think, that the English version is much better than the German one. the story is the same i guess.
sorry, but all in all a waste of time. i have not been entertained.
for friends of advanced cinema. "intouchables" makes everything better than "the king's speech". a story worth to be told.
