Watching the old man

Rating: 8/10 (21 January 2018)

Dear readers, finally I watch Darkest Hour. Like shown in trailers, this movie is about Winston Churchill in the very impressive diplomacy in history. Churchill was well-known for his firm action against Hitler and Nazi across Europe. His ideas and military intervention had saved many lives, not just in Dunkirk, but for whole Europe. Churchill is not just a hero for United Kingdom and alliances, but for the history of mankind that refused to be dictatorized by Hitler. Gary Oldman is this movie is really amazing, he is acting perfectly just like the old man (Churchill), his voice, his style, his fashion, his remark of "V" symbol, his cigarette, his mumbling lips, etc. Gary Oldman had done such a hardwork in this movie. I appreciate that. Gary Oldman is really different in this movie, as habitually I have seen him as police figure in Gotham city for Batman Trilogy or such figure in Harry Potter. For this changes is incredibly remarkable. I applause the Director also that could live up the scene of that darkest hour of World War II, the wardrobe of all actors and actresses, the building, the moment, the story plot, and other things. I rate this movie 8, because in the story plot, we just see Churchill finding ideas to defeat Hitler, not his military intervention. I imagined I can see war in this movie, but I could not, maybe this movie is not going to show up the war, but the figure behind the war. Among other movies in this January, Darkest Hour will lead this year dramatically and people will reflect the history by watching the old man.
