The Iron Lady Movie Download

6 / 10

Decent, but should have been a classic.
An ageing Margaret Thatcher struggles to deal with the passing of her husband Dennis, and looks back at her rise to Britain’s top job.

I looked at the relatively low score, and wondered how much of it was to do with the film, and how much was to do with the level of dislike that still exists for the former Prime Minister.

There’s something missing, and I think it’s the direction and the actual storytelling, it’s so clunky, if someone were to re-edit this film, I think they could do something with it.

It’s a fascinating story, Britain’s first woman Prime Minister, a story that deserved to be told. For me, the good outweighs the bad, but the elements were here for this to have been a superb film, sadly it just isn’t.

I liked the way the original news footage is mixed in, it’s well fused. If only they’d have shown her Spitting Image character.

Meryl Streep delivers an outstanding performance, she is sensational, the voice, the poise, the body language, she is fantastic. Jim Broadbent is wonderful as Dennis, the pair combined so well.
