Churchill (2017)
1/10
Based on a true story - but total fiction
28 October 2017
I'm surprised that an actor of Brian Cox's status allowed himself to be involved in this manipulative and totally fictional account of Winston Churchill as a weak, dithering, bumbling-incompetent of a prime minister who tried to sabotage the plans of D-Day. This is the first time in 20 years that I have walked out of a movie. Anyone too young to know about WWII will learn nothing of Churchill from this movie. The events depicted simply didn't happen.

There is much discussion of "fake news" today. This disgraceful film is another heavy stone threatening to bury the truth. I rated it 1/10 but without the acting of Cox it doesn't even deserve 1.
