Entertainingly boarish and miopic in nature, this film purposefully doesn’t look outside the scope of just a few weeks of Winston Churchill’s decision about the nature of the second world war, much to it’s credit. Lilly James is delightful as always and Gary Oldman is exactly as perfect as you would expect.
Go in knowing that they don’t deal with any of Churchill’s real issues though, as most of the crimes against humanity happen well after the time period portrayed here.
