Brexit Reviews
The Uncivil War itself almost feels an uncivil story to tell right now in these troubled, uncertain times. It could be, therefore, the Brexit Movie Panto we all deserve.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Jan 31, 2021
The insider elements going along through the campaign are what's really beneficial. You get insight on stuff you've not heard that much on Brexit.

Brexit: The Uncivil War is a film caught between two contrary instincts, unable to quite work out what it wants to be or what it wants to do.
| Original Score: 5/10 | Dec 6, 2019
Benedict Cumberbatch delivers a magnificent performance. [Full Review in Spanish]

Whether or not if any of this is true is beyond me, but there is something distressingly cynical about the story, which is perhaps fitting for the times we live in. Cummings could have chosen either side, but he made a decision, didn't he?
| Original Score: 4/5 | Aug 5, 2019
I thought Brexit: The Uncivil War was brilliant - smartly written, clearly plotted, with Cumberbatch doing his usual Cumberbatch things.

What's smart about the drama is how non-committal it is to the question of if [Dominic] Cummings is actually smart.
| Jun 28, 2019
Despite a smart script and great acting, it was irrelevant. Too much has happened since then.

As a 온라인카지노추천 drama, it has flaws. More background on Cummings would not have gone amiss. But as a lesson in the new politics this is both chilling and compelling.
| Original Score: 5/5 | Mar 8, 2019
I'd especially like to know how Matthew Elliott feels about being portrayed as a borderline simpleton whenever Cummings heaves into view.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Mar 7, 2019
Some of the glaring errors in an early version of the script-which was leaked to The Daily Beast last summer-have been cut, but there are plenty of inaccurate and downright misleading scenes in the final production.

Haynes functionally directs this sort of political and procedural thriller in which, in a way that is perhaps too obvious and didactic, the triumph of Eurosceptics is presented to us as tragic but inevitable. [Full Review in Spanish]
| Original Score: 2/4 | Feb 22, 2019
That Graham has managed to make a functioning drama out of Brexit, let alone such a riveting one, feels a little bit miraculous.
| Feb 21, 2019
A whimper rather than a bang seems an entirely appropriate note to end on.
| Original Score: 5/5 | Feb 13, 2019
The scene with which the [director Toby Haynes] closes the film... is a must. [Full review in Spanish]

Benedict Cumberbatch turns in a superlative eye-catching performance.
| Original Score: B- | Feb 6, 2019
While not as balanced as advertised, HBO's new movie, Brexit: The Uncivil War, offers fascinating insight into the political upheaval reverberating through the Western world.
| Feb 1, 2019
Inspired by the irreverent style of Aaron Sorkin's Moneyball.
| Jan 23, 2019
90 minutes of shocking but surprisingly entertaining political theater.
| Jan 23, 2019
Benjamin Cumberbatch is very good as usual as a single minded organizer who wants to break from the staid conservative politicians who have failed on the issue for years.
