1.0 out of 5 stars Misleading January 14, 2012
Format:Amazon Instant Video
When I saw the run time listed as 5 minutes, I knew that this was not the actual movie, so I began to look all over the description to find where it said that it was a preview and not the movie itself. I was unsuccessful, so as far as I could tell, the run time was the only clue. I too say shame on Amazon.

1.0 out of 5 stars The King's Speech December 24, 2011
By Eyes
Format:Amazon Instant Video|Amazon Verified Purchase
This is about the movie, and is not the movie itself. It is quite disappointing when something is listed as a FREE MOVIE, but instead is only a "clip" about it. It is disappointing that Amazon would do this. It should be clearly listed as a "clip about the movie".

1.0 out of 5 stars thought it was movie
I thought I was getting the entire movie for free. Waste of time. Did not convince me to either buy the movie or not. Waste of time.

1.0 out of 5 stars Couldn't watch the movie, for region control
It was so sad, that since I live in Mexico City, I could not watch the movie online, since I am not allowed to because of the region. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars if you know someone with a speech problem
they should see this movie. Its dynamic showy and humble although the king or speech writer admired hitler I don't think he'd like his methods.

This is a great film--a wonderful story and outstanding performances by Colin Firth and Helena Bonham Carter. I saw it in the theater first and had to watch it again.

3.0 out of 5 stars King's Speech
I'm sure there are many reviews here that will give a synopsis of the plot, so I'll just say I liked the movie. It had no car chases and gunfights so that's a plus right there. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Compelling
What could be more boring that a movie about a king with a speech impediment? Wrong! It was fascinating and had me on the edge of my chair. Outstanding acting on all accounts.

Other reviewers have also noted the deception regarding this film - currently it is 1.99 for amazon prime members to watch. It _appeared_ the movie was an Amazon Prime free film. Read more

1.0 out of 5 stars It was just a preview.
I thought it was a full version movie, however, it was just a preview. I tried to find the original movie, but I was not able to find it.

2.0 out of 5 stars disappointed here
I wanted to get the full movie, and being a "Prime" member, I was going to watch this, but all I saw was a 4 min. trailor. Was disappointed
