I saw it on Friday. Sadly, the theater was nearly empty. Maybe 20 people there for a prime time (7:30 PM) showing.

Oldman was outstanding as Churchill, but I thought the movie could have been better. It seemed to drag in spots, as is typical for a Biopic. Won’t be popular because lots of talking but not a lot of action. Other than Hitler, the villain was Lord Halifax, who was a British surrender monkey.

Oldman is a great actor and deserves the Oscar for this but won’t get it. Why? Because he portrayed Churchill.

As long as they keep giving oscars to people like Meryl “let em eat Harvey” Streep, oscars are meaningless.
