What the critics say
Based on 12 reviews, Churchill gets an average review score of 48
Veteran actor turns this portrait of a prime minister in crisis into an acting masterclass.
2883d ago
Cox plays it splendidly despite the character being written as someone earning more pity than sympathy. Slattery and Wadham are equal to the task as they enforce their dominance over him (the former’s Ike allowed room for pause and contemplation to project complexity beyond his role as ideological opponent).
2883d ago
Brian Cox plays Winston Churchill with blustery conviction in a decent, prosaic drama about the wartime lesson he had to learn.
2883d ago
Brian Cox blows smoke in the inane World War II drama Churchill.
2883d ago
“Churchill” squanders history and an ace Brian Cox performance.
2883d ago
It simplifies Winston Churchill’s legacy for the dubious purposes of narrative momentum and emotional lift.
2883d ago
Brian Cox, Miranda Richardson and John Slattery star in Jonathan Teplitzky’s historical drama about Winston Churchill’s objections to the risky D-Day invasion plan.
2883d ago
The movie’s ambition is the good news. The bad news is that it is a hash, choosing to jumble the historical record and frame a Churchill bout with depression against the D-Day invasion of France by Allied forces.
2883d ago
A film gets the facts right but comes up short on dramatic imagination.
2883d ago
Brian Cox portrays the PM’s debilitating doubts in the run-up to D-Day, but the film is more simplistic than enlightening.
2883d ago
Biography, at its most useful, disabuses us from myth, but Churchill has no such ambitions. As both history and entertainment, it’s a drag.
2883d ago
In the annals of historical biopics, Jonathan Teplitzsky’s “Churchill” stands out as a uniquely awful and tedious caricature of a fascinating subject.
