The last king of Scotland An amazing film. It was tense and exciting story that I could not get away from. Very gory and surprising as all the characters would change their opinions and the way they acted to other people. All the characters varied in personality and made it very exciting. The ending was dark and would be quite exciting or sad depending on your opinions. All together an extremely good film and left me satisfied and hungry for more. It’s based on a novel, fortunately the main character, the doctor, is not real but unfortunately the horrific events in the film actually happened.
