It is agood movie, but MAN! I hated Richard Williams, he is so maddening that I just wanted him to shut up. I kand of understand why he was like that, after all he suffered a lot. The most comic part was when he told his daughters that one day they'd buy a lot of beds and wouldn't have to share beds with their sisters (and I thought, well if you hadn't had FIVE daughters living with not enough money they wouldn't have had to share beds).

a great movie, but it has the potential to be greater. it feels like Green chooses to portray mainly the feel-good moments, and I would want more of the emotional, raw, messy stuff. superb peformances all around here — Anunjanue Ellis, Saniyya Sidney, Will Smith, Jon Bernthal are all excellent

The first half is really fun, the second half (pretty much as soon as Jon Bernthal enters the film) gets a little more dramatic.
Will Smith makes the film.
He’s not playing the smooth fresh prince, instead this a very nuanced, complex character and you’re not sure how to feel about him until the end.
The cinematography is great (looks a lot like _Straight Outta Compton_) and the performances are all impressive.
But, you can kinda see a better movie lingering in the background, and it’s mostly because the film doesn’t want to commit to challenging the viewer too much.
Is it alright to use your kids as a way to lift your whole family out of poverty?
What should we do to make sure that impoverished kids get the chance to develop a talent they have?
These questions are in the film, and I’d say they’re all very interesting and relevant, but they’re never brought to the foreground.
I also wanted to know a little more on how Selena and Venus look back on their father now.
So it’s very good, despite playing it a little safe in places.

7.5/10

I am shocked with how much i enjoyed this movie. It hit all the right notes. I came from a tennis family so that just made it even better. I LOVED this movie so much.

Still need to watch this, but seeing Will Smith be such a cuck at the Oscars trying to pathetically prove his manhood it will take awhile. Yeah I know, separate the art from the artist, etc. It's just too soon.

King Richard is a gripping horror film about an egotistical father grooming his offspring to devour their enemies and conquer the world...and tennis.
Story: 8...spot on to reality and pretty damn inspiring
Script: 7
Performances: 8...Smith definitely has some impressive moments worthy of Oscar buzz, but Ellis is the one who says it in my opinion, showing much more ranger in her role. The sisters and coaches are all solid.
Misc.: 6...nothing special, but the tennis scenes are actually dang impressive
Influence: 7...was lower before "The Slap"
Overall: 7

A great movie. It was a interesting way to tell the Williams' sisters history under their father's perspective. Beyond that, Will Smith is excellent on the scenes.

I enjoyed this quite a bit. Interesting look into the mind of a hyper determined father (and yes mother too) to turn 2 of his daughters into two of the greatest tennis players of all-time. I would have liked a little more focus on Serena's development as well, but overall it was well worthy of a watch. 7.3 for me.

If you don't cry at the end, you have no heart! Or you're racist.

@The_Argentinian Actually what you said is racist, not when someone doesn't cry at the end of a movie.

A perfectly fine biopic lifted by Will Smith’s charisma.

There’s not much more to say except: he did it, they did it exactly like he planned and predicted.
Will Smith with an outstanding performance reminded me of him on In Pursuit of Happiness (one of my favourite movies)

An authorized biopic is always a double-edged sword, even more so if it highlights a kind of messianic plan of the father rather than his daughters' own values. Because, after all, the Williams sisters are to their credit, as black women in a primarily white sport. A film designed in the shape of the Oscar, it contributes little to the staging of tennis and runs for about two and a half hours totally unnecessary.

@miguelreina wow, harsh review but it rings extremely true. I could not have said it better myself. I tried to like it more, then tried to like it less, and I'm still ambivalent on how I feel about it

This was such a good biopic, I didn't know all the way through if Richard was going to sabotage his girls and everything they'd worked, or if it was all part of the plan. A super engaging film from top to bottom that hits all the right drama notes to keep you hooked and invested. Great stuff.

I love the Williams sisters in this. It shows their diligence and kindness and they are just fun to watch on the screen. The part that surprised me was that I did not enjoy Will Smith’s performance as much as everyone else. It might be the first time I have seen him tear up and it doesn’t do anything for me. King Richard just seemed like King Dick for the most part.

This movie reveals the process of willfully accepting personal responsibility for your own life and inculcating it into the lives of those who are dependent upon your supervision. A quintessentially American movie. There are no victims here; just hard work.
