Sep 23, 2018Gary Oldman leads the cast in the dramatic World War II film Darkest Hour. After Neville Chamberlain is ousted, Winston Churchill is selected to be the new Prime Minister of England, and as Europe continues to fall to Hitler increasing pressure is placed on Churchill to negotiate a peace settlement. Oldman gives a remarkable performance and is backed by a strong supporting cast, including Lily James and Ben Mendelsohn. And director Joe Wright does an impressive job at creating tension and suspense. The sets and costumes are also especially well-done, giving an authentic feel for the time period. The Darkest Hour is a fascinating look at one of the most perilous moments of World War II when England's will was tested.Dann M Super Reviewer

Aug 05, 2018Gary Oldman delivers another great performance but in a superficial film that doesn't even try to escape the typical clichés found in so many biographies. Full review on filmotrope. comCarlos M Super Reviewer

Mar 18, 2018In what's been a quiet couple of weeks since the Academy Awards, I decided to see how Gary Oldman won his piece of gold for playing one of not 'the' greatest political leaders that'd ever lived. Despite having a heavy focus on what Churchill was like as a leader, Oldman's performance is masterclass as if he's the one thing driving the very plot of the film more than any other character involved. Nonetheless, it's an incredibly fine film where Oldman has delivered a performance worthy of an Oscar as well as the sturdily fine robust direction and production with enough scripting material to cover anything that affect the very person Churchill was during the dark and turbulent time of Britain's "Darkest Hour". Check this one out at your own will, even if it's just for the unrecognizable and outstanding portrayal of Churchill Gary Oldman puts on, but more importantly to show what great leadership then could do for our generation now.Luke E Super Reviewer
