It's big-budget mass entertainment. From what I have read from advance press releases, it is not true to the Purim story, although it is obviously "inspired" by it. They have Esther trying to "win Achashveirosh's heart" as a main theme.
I would suggest watching the trailer at their website, http://www.onenightwiththeking.com, to see if it seems like something you feel comfortable with.
