"I really enjoyed watching this drama based on the true story of the amateur British historian Philippa Langley. She was responsible for leading the search for King Richard III's grave which completely altered the historical timeline that has been taught for many centuries. The acting was understated and the storyline was quietly powerful, showing how a smart and determined woman in an emotionally charged situation used information at her disposal to pay respects to fallen and misunderstood royalty."
"One of those charming English types of movies. Based on a true story, so that was cool. It was good, but don’t really feel the need to see it more than once or buy it. "

"“The Lost King” is a beautiful arthouse rendering about the story of an amazing historian, and it subtly hits on the ease at which our current society still has a tendency to vilify and ostracize disabled people. This film notably also features a lovely depiction of how some separated families still maintain civility and love, following a realization that the couple is not romantically suited for each other; but more suited for the kind of once in a lifetime soulmate bond and friendship. Cast and acting is ten out of ten. "
"Excellent, engaging and informative. The actors were all excellent "
