Review of Darkest Hour (2017) by Shane K — 27 Jul 2018
An instant classic; one of the best films of all time. With superb scripting, directing and acting "Darkest Hour" is to film what a Dickens novel is to literature. Destined to be included among the best received films ever produced, "Darkest Hour" provides a sweeping and engrossing glimpse at one of history's most storied moments.
By turns timely and timeless, we are invited to explore the life and mind of a statesmen of monumental influence. Far from being stale or out-of-touch, Oldman deftly breaths life into this towering figure in a way that makes him human and accessible.
With support from a stellar cast and paced to deliver maximum impact, the script beckons to the audience to engage with it in a way that few films have since Attenborough's "Gandhi.".
