The King of Life dives into the chaotic world of Edward, a man whose irritability feels almost palpable. The film captures this raw, often uncomfortable energy, blending comedy and drama with a subtle touch. The pacing is thoughtful, allowing us to linger on Edward's strained interactions with his family, which makes the eventual shift in his character that much more striking. Its strength lies in its grounded performances—each actor brings a level of authenticity to their roles, particularly in how they navigate familial tension. And while there aren’t flashy effects or grand settings, the film's heart lies in its exploration of human connection, making you reflect on life’s often overlooked moments. It feels like a slice of life, served on a somewhat gritty plate.
