Reviews
Despite a star-studded cast led by Anthony Anderson, 'King's Ransom' fails to deliver on its promising premise. Rotten Tomatoes gives it a dismal 2% rating, with critics calling it 'unoriginal' and 'lacking in humor'. The lowbrow humor and predictable plot twists leave much to be desired, as pointed out by IMDb's rating of 4.4/10. Metacritic gives it a score of 11/100, noting the film's reliance on tired cliches and lack of compelling character development. Overall, 'King's Ransom' falls flat in its attempt to blend comedy with a touch of suspense, making it a forgettable watch for most viewers.
