Review of The Last King of Scotland (2006) by Emily P — 17 Sep 2009
Very good film showing the the rise of the Ugandan dictator and the fall of a young Scottish doctor. This is the best I have seen both Forest Whitaker and James McAvoy. Some great images of Africa and the civil unrest looks geniune.
Forest Whitaker looks prefect as Idi Amin and is strangley a rather likeable character from what we are given in the film at first, only to be shown his mental decline. A great film fitting a piece of history that should not be forgotten.
