Gary Oldman!!!

Rating: 8/10 (28 October 2018)

Darkest Hour was an amazing story about Winston Churchill as his time as prime minister during WWII. I was very excited to see this after all of the Oscar buzz. Gary Oldman is literally the best actor alive! He was fantastic as Churchill and should win that Oscar. I loved the makeup and hairstyling, costume design, and production design. The cinematography was beautiful. I'm sad to see that the score wasn't nominated for best original score but The Last Jedi was. I thought the score was beautiful. As for flaws there were only a couple scenes that dragged a little and a few characters didn't have as much development as I would've liked. Other than that it was amazing. Definitely see this one! As of now I only have to see three more of the Best Picture nominees (Lady Bird, Phantom Thread, and Call Me By Your Name).
My Grade: A-
