Product Description

When a freak accident wipes out an entire royal family, an exhaustive search reveals a distant relation: Ralph Jones (Goodman), a good-natured, down-to-earth Las Vegas entertainer. Immediately, the rude and crude Ralph is given a crash course in royal manners by his new private secretary, the very proper Lord Willingham (Peter O'Toole). But while Ralph's uncouth behavior delights the public, it fuels a fiendish plot by the evil Lord Graves (John Hurt), who's out to oust the new ruler. Now, it's up to this lowborn lounge singer to redeem himself in a manner befitting a king in this warmhearted comedy romp.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must have for your collection!, May 18, 2009

By	Joseph K. Bagdonas (Suburbs of Chicago) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

A great comedy to add to your collection! I do have 'King Ralph' on DVD already. Don't know if this particular DVD is just a re-release of an old title, or if it is a newer release with any additional features that the first release didn't have. Naturally can't tell from amazon's description of it.

Either way, for those that don't have it, or haven't seen it, it is 100% entertaining! One of those movies that never received any due credit for being entertaining.
