In every aspect, Oldman proves a charismatic draw.

Now it's Churchill's turn to be shrunken down to a more manageable size.

How badly we need another Winston Churchill film is open to question. Nonetheless, Joe Wright's contribution to the genre is welcome, largely because of Gary Oldman in the leading role.

"Darkest Hour's" greatest achievement is reminding us how different the world almost was but for one man's ability to lead others to fight against fascism.

Churchill's darkest hour is Gary Oldman's finest. Gripping, touching, amusing and enlightening, his performance is the prime reason this film must be seen - but not the only one.

Oldman is quite special, nevertheless. It's a performance that's as technically astonishing as it is, simply, fun to watch.

While "Darkest Hour" is a showcase for Oldman's incredible performance, Wright's aesthetic visually transports the viewer, the images heavy with subtext and meaning.

A stirring but flawed World War II film.

The film itself may skirt stodginess, but Oldman, who has played everyone from Sid Vicious to Ludwig van Beethoven to Lee Harvey Oswald, never does. (The extraordinary makeup job is courtesy of Kazuhiro Tsuji.)

It is always Gary Oldman's phenomenal performance that keeps the film airborne.

Mr. Oldman's interpretations of the great man's speeches elevate this film...

Were Darkest Hour just a symphony of World War II nostalgia, it'd probably still be a good watch. But because the film makes the effort to go deeper, it becomes something much more memorable.
