Peterloo
TrailerIt is a historical picture of the disaster that occurred in England over the events surrounding the famous Peterloo massacre in 1819. During this period, a peaceful pro-democracy demonstration in St. Peter's Square in Manchester turned into one of the bloodiest and most famous events in British history. During that period, the government inflicted many casualties and injuries on a historical epic that is the most important in history through people who wanted political and economic reform.Actors: Rory Kinnear, Maxine Peake, Pearce Quigley, David Moorst, Rachel Finnegan, Tom Meredith, Simona Bitmate, Robert Wilfort, Karl Johnson, Sam Troughton, Roger Sloman, ...»Director: Mike LeighCountry: United KingdomDuration: 154 minQuality: HDRelease: 2018IMDb: 6.50 CommentsSort By- Newest

Critic Reviews of "Peterloo"
indieWireSeptember 08, 2018You can feel Leigh's fury glowering off the screen through the entire last act, but that fury does the film and the filmmaker little service.
New York Magazine/VultureSeptember 02, 2018Those with the patience and attention span are rewarded; the last 30 minutes is perhaps the most visceral filmmaking Leigh has ever pulled off...
Time OutSeptember 01, 2018The authenticity is immersive, even if the historical exposition occasionally feels like prep for an exam no one's warned you about.
RogerEbert.comSeptember 01, 2018Leigh's passion for the material seems to have led him to approach it from an angle more pedagogic than artistic.
GuardianSeptember 01, 2018With this richly intelligent, passionate movie Mike Leigh has fought a brilliant rearguard action on history's political battlefield.
VarietySeptember 01, 2018It's a stately, explicitly rhetorical paean to the people - setting the past in stone while also lashing out at a present-day political order.
New StatesmanJanuary 25, 2019It seems perverse that a film of such length should find no home for so many of its director's assets. Detailed character-work, complex domestic relationships, humour: these are elements that would have made the picture engaging.
SlashfilmJanuary 23, 2019Peterloo's deliberate pacing and structure makes the evolution of a movement feel completely organic.
The SkinnyDecember 13, 2018Peterloo feels a little too much like an agenda is being pushed, but this is nevertheless a powerful, pertinent piece of work.
FrewFilmNovember 18, 2018Violence takes a backseat to powerful rhetoric in this dense, Universal Credit-era history lesson.
RTÉ (Ireland)November 07, 2018It is beautifully shot and the costume department have a real eye for detail... but despite the sheer drama of these historical events and their relevance to today's fractured world, Peterloo fails to ignite real passion and anger.
