Acerca de esta película

As Ugandan dictator Idi Amin, Forest Whitaker gives one of the greatest performances of modern movie history. This is Amin's incredible story as seen through the eyes of Nicholas Garrigan (James McAvoy), a young Scotsman who becomes the volatile leader's personal physician. Due in part to Amin's unexpected passion for Scottish culture, Amin even proclaims himself "The Last King of Scotland". Seduced by Amin's charisma and blinded by decadence, Garrigan's dream life becomes a waking nightmare of betrayal and madness from which there is no escape. Inspired by real people and events, this gripping, suspenseful stunner is filled with performances you will never forget.

Has been over sensationalised for the big screen, but a good watch. Have many first hand stories of this man, from family. A name that still triggers vivd memories in those effected, under his regime. Remember a story about one of Idi Amins wives, who owned a cafe in North London. It was closed down for serving African Bush food! Enjoy!

I'm sure the film is good, however I accidentally bought on my iPhone, as I didn't realise there was a card on my id. YouTube tried helping, but when I was told to go to Apple, they obviously sent a robot as I was instantly declined a refund. I suppose this means Android is much better. I guess I should be more careful.

Well worth watching!
