KING RICHARD
(2021) 12A
(DRAMA/BIOGRAPHY)

Director: Reinaldo Marcus Green
With Will Smith, Saniyya Sidney, Demi Singleton
Runtime: 138 mins
LANGUAGE: ENGLISH
Based on the inspiring true story, King Richard follows the journey of Richard Williams,
a determined father instrumental in raising two of the most extraordinarily gifted
athletes of all time. Driven by a clear vision of their future and using unconventional
methods, Richard (Will Smith) has a plan that will take Venus and Serena Williams from
the streets of Compton, California to the global stage as legendary icons. The profoundly
moving film shows the power of family, perseverance and unwavering belief as a means
to achieve the impossible and impact the world. From the official website
WHY BOOK THIS FILM? “When watching a sports movie I want it to be uplifting,
powerful, emotional, heartwarming, and engaging. King Richard gave me all of this and
more. It has a brilliant story which is well told with solid pacing and strong character
exploration.” (From a user review)
“King Richard doesn’t reinvent the wheel, doesn’t take any wild swings, happy to deliver
a solid crowdpleaser. But what’s great is what doesn’t happen. There are no big cheesy
moments. No montages. No melodrama. It hits the beats you’d want but without falling
into cliché, with warmth baked in so much that you’re swept along throughout, rooting
for every Williams on screen. And it looks so pretty, Robert Elswit’s cinematography
basking it all in a golden glow — and in love.” Empire
“If Smith’s performance can feel affected, there’s complexity to his portrayal of a tired
yet determined man who is obstinate and self-deceiving but has the best of intentions.
Some of Richard’s more troubling flaws are brushed over in this often-sunny spin on
events, though his motivations are well fleshed out.” Radio Times
