Review of King Ralph (1991) by Quentin N — 11 Jul 2009

Centred around an american low life from las vegas who finds out that he is the only rekative to take the throne of england, excited and curious he flys to england in search of a good time with the help of his secutary and butlers, however there are some who hope he will fall flat on his face. cliche and formal in parts,.

John goodman in a strange and ironic role however pulls it out of the bag showing the american humour, he makes this film enjoyable and watchable.With some amusing contrasts between the british and american cultures and just light hearted fun and kindness 'in parts' makes it quite entertaining. also strangely with a few legends of film such as peter o' toole and john hurt is a change.not the best however its funny to laugh at the american stereotype in comparison to the british stiff up a lip, a worthy try.
