The Lost King on IMDb

Amateur historian Philippa Langley is determined to discover the remains of King Richard III - a historical treasure thought lost for over 500 years. She embarks on a quest for answers that alienates her from family and friends. The country's most eminent academics meet Philippa's assertions with scepticism until she orchestrates a search for the lost monarch in 2012 beneath a car park in Leicester.

What we think

A generic and clangingly twee Brit dramedy that never finds a particularly interesting way to tell a frankly rather dull-on-paper true story.

What others think

Whatever its inconsistencies, The Lost King is an underdog story that proves a perfect vehicle for Hawkins’s reliably winning screen presence.
Mark Kermode The Guardian
Warmly funny and historically curious, Sally Hawkins’ spirited, humane performance helps overcome a slight lack of dramatic tension.
