Review of The Last King of Scotland (2006) by John L — 28 Nov 2009
Brutal and horrific ... McAvoy gives a solid performance as Nicholas, but Whitaker deservedly steals the spotlight with his chilling and unforgettable performance in his role as Amin. At first you can see how one might be charmed by the charismatic personality of Amin, but as the story unfolds, you can see how unremitting fear and paranoia dismantle his character and his relationship with the young Scotsman.
(8.0/10).
