  King of California a Kingly Feast

  by treeheart

  I really enjoyed this film. It was delicately played by all parties -- including the director, who could have easily turned it into a melodrama. For all its sadness, it was a very sweet film and well worth seeing.

  a good story with intellectually and emotionally jarring twists

  by Kathi10025

  likable quirky characters, interesting setting-but most importantly, love, courage and intelligence where we might not have thought we would find them!

  Strtange but wonderful

  by mary30

  I expected a comedy which this really wasn't and, about halfway into it, I debated leaving because I didn't know how much my 10 year old was liking it. But she was hooked and I realized I was too. It's very compelling and kind of touching and the performances are great.

  King of California

  by cultural barbarian

  Pretentious and self-conscious, Michael Douglas in a wanabee Indy film that is dour rather than dizzy and sacherine rather than sweet. It wants to be Sideways but ends up full frontal baloney.
