Movie Reviews

We Live Entertainment - 10/10 by Scott MenzelGary Oldman has never been better and he can consider himself the winner of that Oscar because I highly doubt there will be a better performance this year.
RogerEbert.com - 10/10 by Godfrey CheshireI’ve been trying to think when there was a historical drama I found as electrifying as Joe Wright’s Darkest Hour. It may have been Steven Spielberg’s “Munich,” which topped my 10-best list a dozen years ago.
Tribune News Service - 10/10 by Katie WalshWhile "Darkest Hour" is a showcase for Oldman's incredible performance, Wright's aesthetic visually transports the viewer, the images heavy with subtext and meaning.
Washington Post - 10/10 by Ann HornadayHandsomely filmed, intelligently written, accented with just a dash of outright hokum, Darkest Hour ends a year already laden with terrific films about the same subject — including the winsome comedy-drama “Their Finest” and Christopher Nolan’s boldly visual interpretive history “Dunkirk” — and ties it up with a big, crowd-pleasing bow.
San Francisco Chronicle - 10/10 by Mick LaSalleAcross the veil of years, we have seen tall Churchills, obese Churchills, sloppy Churchills, gross Churchills and scowling bull dog Churchills, and yet not one movie or TV Churchill has come close to giving us the man in full, both in look and spirit, until Gary Oldman in Darkest Hour.
Baret News - 10/10 by Kam WilliamsGary Oldman might finally win the Oscar that has long eluded him for his sterling portrayal of the British Bulldog.
RTÉ (Ireland) - 10/10 by Harry GuerinWhen it comes to triumphs, here's one for the ages.
The Mail on Sunday (UK) - 10/10 by Matthew BondOldman gives a performance rather than an impersonation and Darkest Hour is all the better for it.
Quad City Times (Davenport, IA) - 10/10 by Linda Cook'Darkest Hour' is Gary Oldman's finest hour.
Cinema Sight - 10/10 by Wesley LovellGary Oldman anchors a fascinating look at the war room behind the scenes of the evacuation of Dunkirk.
