Movie Reviews

  • Will Smith aces his performance as a homegrown tennis guru in this solid and satisfying biopic; "King Richard" brims with gratitude for the man (and the woman) who made them
    3 of 4 by Rafer Guzman [Newsday ]
  • what we have here is moderately good sports biopic with a very fine performance at center court; The results will please a wide audience searching for inspirational true-life stories ending with a reaffirmation of family, faith and hard, hard work
    by Michael Phillips [Chicago Tribune ]
  • this moving, entertaining drama might be Smith's best acting yet; Will Smith's commitment to the role shines through, and his earnestness to give Richard his flowers as a father and visionary happily color the performance
    4 of 5 by Monique Jones [Common Sense Media ]
  • regardless of how much is true, how much has been softened and reshaped to suit the movie's perspective, and how much is fabricated, the end result is compelling drama with top-notch performances and a feel-good denouement
    3 of 4 by James Berardinelli [ReelViews ]
  • not quite a grand slam, but a winning family drama; It is far from a perfect film, but it tantalizes, thanks to the strong subject matter and the sharp characterizations and performances
    by Stephen Farber [The Hollywood Reporter ]
  • it's a freewheeling but intense family drama, a tribute to the love that bound them; As stirring and heart-warming as you'd like, this is a hugely touching family opus. It's nothing revolutionary, but it's straight from the heart and gets you in the gut
    4 of 5 by Alex Godfrey [Empire Magazine ]
  • in the best Hollywood tradition, “King Richard” stirs up a lot of emotion while remaining buoyant and engaging; this is a fundamentally old-fashioned entertainment, a sports drama that is also an appealing, socially alert story of perseverance
    by AO Scott [New York Times ]
  • enjoyable and well-crafted; a strong, confident picture with winning performances from Saniyya Sidney dan Demi Singleton
    3 of 5 by Peter Bradshaw [The Guardian ]
  • director Reinaldo Marcus Green, has fashioned an exciting, inspirational, warmly funny and deeply involving sports movie; Will Smith disappears into the role of the man obsessed with bringing his daughters to the top of their game
    3.5 of 4 by Richard Roeper [Chicago Sun-Times ]
  • bolstered by a solid performance by Will Smith, King Richard is a feel-good, charming sports biopic that uplifts but never reaches its full potential
    3 of 5 by Mae Abdulbaki [ScreenRant ]
  • "King Richard" is inspiring and involving; Sidney and Singleton are superb in their roles, Smith plays Richard with shamanistic fervour yet retains the human touch the actor brings to all his roles
    3.5 of 4 by Peter Howell [Toronto Star ]
