Critic Reviews of "The Last King of Scotland"
Time OutFebruary 03, 2007Having cut his teeth on documentaries, Kevin Macdonald acts as if a shaky-cam aesthetic alone is enough to fuel dramatic tension.
New York ObserverNovember 29, 2006Mr. Whitaker and Mr. McAvoy head a first-rate cast that helps The Last King of Scotland to illuminate one of the many dark chapters in recent African history.
Orlando SentinelNovember 03, 2006If this genius turn by Whitaker (he starred in Bird and The Crying Game) doesn't earn an Oscar nomination, then those little statues will lose what little meaning they have.
Time OutOctober 19, 2006Whitaker's dedicated, nuanced performance is excellent and lifts the film from some unsteady early moments.
Houston ChronicleOctober 13, 2006See the movie for Whitaker alone: He's possessed by evil and possesses it wholly, rendering the film (and everyone in it) his plaything.
Detroit Free PressOctober 13, 2006A good movie elevated by Whitaker's pitch-perfect performance.
Empire Magazine AustralasiaNovember 07, 2012Captivating hyper-realism, a taut political thriller, and the performance of the year.
TheShiznit.co.ukNovember 03, 2012The Last King Of Scotland will no doubt be picking up an armful of gongs come award season, and rightly so; it's not only lovingly shot and acted, but it evolves into one of the best thrillers of recent memory too.
Film4June 25, 2008Whitaker pulls off a spectacular thespian coup that has Oscar-winner stamped all over it.
BrandonFibbs.comFebruary 28, 2008Whitaker portrays Amin as funny, vulnerable, tender and enigmatic -- all without ever letting us forget he was a maniacal monster.
