This movie ends with a title card informing the audience who won World War 2.

you winston you lose some

2017's 'Churchill' joins the club of disastrous and bland Oscar-bait. Shot, written and directed like a BBC television special, full of the embarrassing over-acting, sombre-predictable music cues, and rudimentary direction. A truly torturous viewing experience.

I have to give Brian Cox all the credit for this performance, as he puts his heart & soul into this. Unfortunately I can't say the rest for the movie itself. Just like what I said about "Mr. Holmes", this could've been a TV movie, not a feature film. Nothing too exciting or interesting happens in this story about the paranoia The British Bulldog faced.

Oh and by the way, the good guys won the war. Just in cause you didn't know, according to the film.

So, was Brian Cox playing Winston Churchill or Albert Finney in this movie?

brexit as fuck

AND YOU FUCKERS HATED DARKEST HOUR?

JESUS

Churchill is a bad film. It asks the question "What if The British Bulldog had balls of steel, but was also kinda a mopey pussy?"

I'll give it a one star bump for Brian Cox's great performance with the material he is given and some of the haunting visuals in the first four or five minutes. After that, it's an incredible bland and misguided biopic.

If you're in the mood for a bunch of old posh cunts bickering in stately homes then boy do I have a movie recommendation for you!

Brian Cox is great, as an aging Winston Churchill, grumpy and mean, and trying his best to convince the leaders of the Allied forces to call off their plans for the D-Day invasion. Its a story of Churchill's later years, of a tired old man who hates war, leading men into war. Yet while sending soldiers to death weighs heavily on his conscience, ultimately this is a story of a hero, a man who helped bring the world peace.

cute but damn slow

Trash

Take ALL the Churchill-tropes and then just THROW THEM AT THE SCREEN.

Brian Cox is absolutely electrifying

Churchill é uma pálida tentativa em reviver os últimos momentos da Segunda Guerra sob a prisma do polêmico e brutal ministro britânico. Parecendo feito para televisão e sem muita atmosfera nem história para conseguir realizar a imersão necessária na história, seu principal defeito é acreditar piamente que o que está sendo visto na tela é emocionante e honroso, simplesmente por ter em seu epicentro o grutão inglês mais famoso da política recente.

If Churchill genuinely was a raving old man who got in everyone's away then this film succeeded in showing that lmao

g*ry oldm*n wants what Brian Cox has!!!!!!!!!!

The film’s well casted, well acted, stylish & intriguing, however its script, direction, focus & lack of realism is disappointing. (53%)

Not your dad’s Churchill, the  Winnie we get here is dealing with a world passing him by, and trying to come to terms with his weaknesses as a man. Not really what I’m looking for In a Churchill biopic, but Brian Cox makes it work, giving a deep resonating performance of a man rather than a giant.

During WWII, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill struggles with his decisions. As he second-guesses his decision on Operation Overlord, his wife, Clementine, inspires him to forge ahead. Churchill creates, as did the man himself in his lifetime, the illusion of stability, even at the height of crisis. Believed in the good of his people and inspired nationalism. He would often go above and beyond his call to duty.
