Gary Oldman's darkest hour

Rating: 4/10 (12 February 2020)

This film is an exercise in Hollywood story making (not storytelling, as I believe it should be for historical dramas). As many others have already stated, the historical inaccuracies are significant, but I would concentrate more on Oldman's Churchill. In this version he's an old, addled cigar-brandishing drunk, unlike the wily, ingenious strategist history actually recognises him as. Very disappointing overall.
