Review of Into the Storm (2009) by George D — 10 Apr 2010
"Never has so much, been stuffed in so few... minutes." excerpt from George's speech about what is wrong with this sequel. And that is the essence of what is wrong with this movie and the movie before it.
It is like quotes and highlights from a bigger speech, but not the whole speech. Come on, HBO gave Saddam Hussein 2X the total running time (and that was about right for him, "House of Saddam" was a good mini series).
This should not have been just a piecemeal movie sequel to another also too short movie. It should have been a full mini series. Many of the important bits of Churchill are here (at least the stuff that mostly wasn't in "The Gathering Storm") .
They are jam packed in between minutes of Churchill being human. Somebody, go back to the beginning and start over doing this thing fully. The subject deserves it.
