In truth, the 140 minutes never seemed extended to me, since Michod avoids wasting time with plot trivialities and goes straight to the point...

Film Threat
The King is so laden with the trappings of profundity and prestige that in the end, it smothers itself to death.

Mashable
If you are a bigger fan of the genre, there might be more to enjoy, but for me, The King felt long and tonally confused. None of the performances are bad, but Timothée Chalamet does not stand out as much as he should in this central and classic role.

For fans of historical drama and medieval action, The King is a must-see.

Fiction Machine
Almost everything about The King works brilliantly, from the casting (not least Robert Pattinson as a deliciously detestable Dauphin) to the generally cracking script by Michôd and Edgerton.

Sydney Morning Herald
In the documentary THE KING, filmmaker Eugene Jarecki holds up Elvis Presley as a prism through which he attempts to refract issues of racial, economic and class polarization.
Washington Post
Rating: 4/5 --
The plays are about [Hal's] youth and immaturity - his unreadiness to be king - and Chalamet captures that impetuousness.
