Gary Oldman transforms into Churchill in biopic 'Darkest Hour': Review

The biopic "Darkest Hour" looks at Winston Churchill as he takes charge of his country in 1940, when Hitler's armies are ravaging Europe. At the center of "Darkest Hour" lies Gary Oldman's amazing performance as Churchill. The actor completely transforms into the jowly, fireplug-shaped older man, and even nails Churchill's hunched-over posture and gestures. Stylishly shot, with compelling performances and action, "Darkest Hour" closes the year in movies on a soaring note.
