Citizen King dives into the life of a struggling Chinese actor who dreams of Hollywood stardom. It's got this raw, almost gritty vibe that really captures the desperation of its lead character, King. The pacing feels a bit uneven at times, but it works—like his journey, there's a sense of unpredictability. The interactions with that sleazy producer add a layer of dark humor, making you chuckle uncomfortably. The performances have a certain authenticity, especially King's portrayal of a man clinging to hope against the odds. The film uses practical effects sparingly, but when they do, it feels grounded. It's a distinctive take on the immigrant experience in the film industry, blending comedy with a bit of reality that resonates.
