Darkest Hour Ratings & Reviews
- PatrikStarAugust 22, 2025Warmonger or war hero... the film leaves the question open, though the key scene unfortunately seems made up. Still, Gary Oldman delivers.
- BroomioDecember 4, 2025Our future is currently not certain. Watching this film has reminded me that we can save our great nation. We can fight back, we can win as we have done in the past. It is the courage to continue that counts. A great film and passion from Oldman.
- dncallahan4570September 28, 2025Great interpretation of a trying time for Great Britain, Winston Churchill. Reason scrip, very well acted.
- martinstraka82April 2, 2025Wow! A great illustration of the burden and responsibility of power, and the toil and suffering it entails. To see a real leader at work in contrast to the monstrously idiotic and weak facsimile now dominating our continent creates inspiration and hope for all who are capable of seeing it.
- TomMarch 25, 2025How did I get hooked on a movie about politics? No idea but this movie slaps.
- burtjohansonFebruary 5, 2025Gary Oldman is superb - giving a performance for the ages in this otherwise forgettable biopic.
- DadDecember 14, 2024Classic military movie. Thanks God for Sir Winston Churchill.
