Critic Reviews of "The King's Choice (Kongens nei)"
Washington PostOctober 05, 2017Set up like a suspense thriller, with on-screen titles that count down the minutes - not days or weeks - "The King's Choice" has the feel of a film that probably played better in its native country.
Minneapolis Star TribuneOctober 05, 2017A handsome widescreen history lesson, "The King's Choice" digs deep into the inexhaustible subject of World War II from a fresh perspective.
Los Angeles TimesOctober 05, 2017"The King's Choice" is a dramatic tale about a pivotal World War II moment, a story infused with tension and psychological conflict that's all the more engrossing for being fresh to us.
San Diego ReaderSeptember 28, 2017Director Erik Poppe's handling of complicated material - diplomacy amid invasion, familial struggles amid national strife, political machinery clanking along amid explosions - is clear and sure.
RogerEbert.comSeptember 22, 2017One of the most handsomely realized and viscerally compelling of recent period dramas.
New York TimesSeptember 21, 2017Proceeds in the manner of any number of war epics of the 1960s, sluggishly charting how the ostensibly ceremonial king acquired real negotiating power during a crisis - and had the resolve to lead his country into war.
Arts FuseOctober 24, 2017... the film turns out to be a beautifully photographed and thoughtful nail-biter, suspenseful in a way that illuminates what must have been Norway's most terrifying moments.
The Patriot LedgerOctober 21, 2017It's handsomely mounted, extremely well-acted and tells a little-known story of bravery on the part of one man daringly taking on the might of the Third Reich.
Blu-ray.comOctober 05, 2017Characters are dimensional and the stakes are high, giving "The King's Choice" plenty to examine as it visits an obscure corner of WWII history.
Mark Reviews MoviesSeptember 29, 2017[I]n its political and personal aims, The King's Choice has chosen nuance over historical melodrama.
ABC Radio (Australia)September 28, 2017A deeply affecting story on a personal level, not only full of suspense and tension but also emotion. If Dunkirk is this year's Big World War Two film about the planes and the boats, this is the one about the people.
NYC Movie GuruSeptember 25, 2017Jesper Christensen gives an effectively commanding that rises above the dry, pedestrian screenplay.
