Review

“Colin Firth delivers a career-defining performance as King George VI, portraying his struggle with a stammer with profound depth and humanity. The film masterfully crafts a compelling narrative around an unexpected friendship and a king finding his voice amidst global upheaval. This story of personal triumph resonates deeply, despite a few historical liberties taken.”
