Very Good performance by Gary Oldman

Rating: 7/10 (26 May 2019)

Watched this film this evening. Whilst I don't have much historical insight to know what Winston Churchill's behaviours or mannerisms may have actually been like it is certainly a very convincing and believable portrayal by Gary Oldman.
If you are not someone that is particularly into history then you may find the film rather limited, due to the fact that it focusses rather narrowly on the crucial events that surrounded Dunkirk as opposed to the broader conflict at large.
However, it isn't easy to portray a film that is essentially a biopic with the charism a of other genres, simply due to the limitations that go along with real world human life, and for a biographical film this is very atmospheric, believable and engaging, and certainly worth a watch for a very good performance by Gary Oldman.
