Somewhat enjoyable father/daughter adventure that is eccentric but forgettable.

Didn't seen many movies starring M.Douglas but in this one he's just great. Pleasant and really watchable, I must say. Also E.R. Wood is quite astonishingly good (and hot:)). Plot isn't groundbreaking, but it's unique. Soundtrack is sometimes a bit freaky(from oldies to latino rhythms). I cannot point out anything either bad or exceptionally good. Overall I'm impressed.

"King of California proves light on its feet but often less funny or wise than it purports to be, its air of self-satisfaction partially interfering with its genuine insights." - Nick Schager

The first half was a 40, and the second half was a 60. So let's call it a generous 50 overall, even though it should lose extra points for unnecessary and grating narration and product placement.

These are the roles that Michael Douglas does best. The quirky, weirdo, crazy guy is done fantastically here once again. I also always enjoy Evan Rachel Wood. However, the film itself is far from perfect. It's not bad, just not great. It gets a passing grade and keeps you interested until the end. But, it's not a film you'll want to pop back into the dvd player a couple of times a year, that's for sure.

Michael Douglas and Evan Rachel Wood are wonderful in this. Really the best, and only, word I can use to describe it as a whole is "nice."
