Gary Oldman is the main attraction and the bait

Rating: 6/10 (20 May 2018)

I actually only go through three-quarter of this movie, I've decided this is way too dull. I've been reading some article about Oscar-baiting movies. This is definitely one of them. I'm not saying the movie is so bad, but I think, movie is an art, not a money-making machine. Right? Check up reviews and critics, they praise Gary's acting. Gary is the bait, right? I myself watch this movie because of him. His body transformation is unbelivable (but exaggertaed) and his mimicking, gesture, timbre is unique and need a lot of real work to achieve that level of acting. Talking about best actor, we could compare Oldman and Day-Lewis. Daniel had also played in Lincoln (2012) with similar role. Daniel is a lot more charismathic than Gary. Churcill wasn't a very likeable, either, like the one Gary played in this. Because this movie is all about Gary Oldman, and not Churcill, I think I'm going to end my review. Thank you.
