Peterloo

...en filmiskt kraftfull, men stundtals något övertydlig kompensation för historielektionernas eventuella brister i skolorna.

Leigh is to be applauded for his dedication to accuracy...

Leigh’s ambition (...) is to forge an epic about the powerless rather than the powerful.

There is force, grit and, above all, a sense of purpose; a sense that the story he has to tell is important and real, and that it needs to be heard right now.

The sheer anger Leigh feels burns through the screen, its power ultimately overwhelming any flaws you may have previously noticed.

... ett storslaget och brutalt historiskt drama, väl värd att ses.
