Oldman was great, but.....

Rating: 7/10 (28 February 2018)

I've been a reader of WWII history for over 40 years. While I knew Oldman would be a fine Churchill, I hoped that the movie would be historically correct and not "based on fact." If nothing else, the movie is forcing me to the history books to brush up on a few things. I won't spoil the movie by going into detail.
One thing that I was screaming at the screen over: The movie needs subtitles for the important players. One cannot assume that the person they're looking at in the 2nd scene is Neville Chamberlain just because he kinda looks like Neville Chamberlain. And who knows what the other players in history look like. I really wanted to know who was speaking and what was their role in the government at the time. The viewer is left on their own to figure out who these actors were supposed to be portraying.
Like another commentator, I too was surprised when the movie ended. I was so engrossed that the time flew.
