The Lost King

It is an interesting and quietly inspiring yarn...

...the narrative trimming allows the story to center on a touching theme of what it is to be demeaned and belittled.

...an underdog story that proves a perfect vehicle for Hawkins’s reliably winning screen presence.

Warmly funny and historically curious, Sally Hawkins’ spirited, humane performance helps overcome a slight lack of dramatic tension.

...a timely venture into this intriguing terrain.
