This specific table shows the level of DVD saled for the film "The kings speech" within the first 17 weeks. It shows where the film was ranked at that particular time for instance it was at the number 1 spot in the third week after going down two places fro the first week, although afterwards it had dropped down to sixth place - starting falling gradually until it reached twenty third in the seventeenth week. and the percentage change that the film made during those weeks, e.g. in the 6th week there was a 24.7% increase than the week before. However the week after shows a staggering 56% decrease in the number of sales.
After looking on IMBD i am able to establish the box offices views that the kings speech had recieved in 2010 when it was released. the full budget for the film was $15,000,000 approxiamtley and in the opening weekend they had made $355,450 but that was only in the USA, world wide it made roughly $373,700,000 gaining a substabtinal amount of profit.As america does not have as far back a history as the UK does it may become more appealing to know what has happened in previous years and acknowledge the differences of how royalty has grown/lived in England in its previous years.
While in the UK and Ireland the Kings Speech took in £3.5million within the first three days of its release which shows how successful it was straight away.There are different reasons why this may have been so successful e.g. having famous actors such as Colin Firth play the main roles in the film - this will attract audiences specifically that like him to come and watch this film. Another reason why it may have been so popular among the British audience because it represents what has happened historically with the previous kings(King George).
This review specifically shows the views and ideas of the film from an audience member within the UK. They have chosen to give the film 10/10 stars, saying that "It is a very touching, and quite inspiring story " showing that she was overwhelmed by the film and how much she thought of it, she also said that by watching it she had the opportunity to explore a period of British history.
This review was also another very positive one but it was from an audience member from the United States (USA) and claimed it to be "A wonderful movie". One of the main reasons for this viewer watching this moving was thier fascination with historical figures and they thought that there would be some disappointment in that when watching it. But it was the complete opposite and that it was filled with humor as well as drama, making it even better of a film.
On the other hand this is a negative review from someone within the UK, and they have rated it 1/10 claiming it to be "Truly awful", saying that picking Colin Firth to play such an important member of the cast was a massive mistake because he both talks and looks nothing alike King George VI.They have also put many things in this review that they think would of improved the film e.g. choosing different actors to play such important roles.
Likewise this is another negative review from an audience member claiming that it is a "Boring film". on the positive side they did say that their was quite good acting and that the direction of the film was good, but it was to slow and not at all entertaining. This shows that not every one has the same ideas on the film even though it did make huge profits and in general showing that different audience do have different perspectives.
