haunting thriller

Rating: 8/10 (16 February 2007)

This movie got a scary nature but depicts terribly well this intimidating character; the portrait of this dictator is really frightening but the story is recounted in a really seductive way. The whole film is adrenaline-filled but what is truly suggestive is the character greatly played by Forrest Whitetaker, that is a mix of cold bloodiness, ruthlessness, humor and madness. Think this motion picture will be remembered for a very long time, as blood and violence - not only physical, also psychological - are a considerable part of it but the events and the story are undeniably gripping. Would suggest everyone not to miss "The KIng of Scotland".
