Elvis & Nixon

The film is by its very nature a drawn-out, deadpan comedy, and in its quieter moments it absolutely nails that vibe...

...Shannon in particular has a way of carrying his body and gesturing with his hands that possess a superstar’s bizarre, borderline entitled aura.

...Johnson hit the jackpot by getting Michael Shannon on board as the King and Kevin Spacey to play the corrupt president.

...presidentens nollställda min är obetalbar när kungen har karateuppvisning och pratar om kommunistisk hjärntvättningsteknik.

...both actors make their roles believable through apt choices in body language and vocalization.

…med så mycket humor, bisarra detaljer och perfekt leverans av skådespelarduon Shannon och Spacey, att ett permanent leende infinner sig.
