Edgerton plays Falstaff's drunken buffoonery as an old warrior's self-medication, not a fool's personality. But most of all I liked the fight scenes, which unromantically depict the grim, ugly slog of medieval combat.

The American Dream is a conceit that’s woven into the fabric of the country....Eugene Jarecki uses the life of Elvis Presley as an allegory for the lifespan of America, and the death of that dream. -- Grade: A-

Ozus' World Movie Reviews
Wildly ambitious, thoroughly entertaining and embellished with some snaky moves, Eugene Jarecki’s documentary THE KING is a lot like its nominal subject, Elvis Presley.
New York Times
Rating: 4/5 --
The plays are about [Hal's] youth and immaturity - his unreadiness to be king - and Chalamet captures that impetuousness.

Even before it reaches Presley’s final years, THE KING explores the icon’s challenges and the complex place he occupies in pop culture.
Los Angeles Times
