The film "The Iron Lady" tells the story of British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher in a nonlinear way. It shows her early political career and rise to power while also depicting her as an aging woman struggling after leaving office. The intention was to intertwine these two time periods to show cause and effect. However, the viewer is left feeling confused by the shifting timeline. While Meryl Streep's performance is excellent, the depiction of Thatcher in her older years is disappointing and does not live up to the potential of the story or character. Overall, the reviewer finds the film average and feels the important topic was not fully realized or satisfying.

1. Two movies in one - great and tedious
If it were not that the story really happened, and the character of Margaret Thatcher actually
shook the foundations of the British policy of the eighties of the twentieth century, the "Iron
Lady" would pass unnoticed by the world of cinema. Perhaps it would be loud about it only in
the US because of the role that Meryl Streep has made the second woman in the history of
cinematography award-3 Oscar statuettes (after Katharine Hepburn - 4 Oscars). The reason
is one - the movie is simply average.
The story nielinearnie - on the one hand, we know Margaret was only about 20 years old
when he goes to study in Oxford.
We see her first steps in the "man's world" decisions and choices. We are witnessing, as
climbing to the top of the political career and persistently implements its plans.
On the other hand, the film shows us as Margaret ailing older woman who can not find a
place in the new, non-political reality. Impassable mourning her husband, remoteness (not
only physical, but mainly mental) of children and successive layers of hallucinations slowly
decline proclaim a strong character. The intention of the writer, these two stories were
probably intertwine with each other to form a coherent compilation of cause and effect. In
fact, the viewer receives feel confusion, tension and the climate. History takes for running
sine wave, and a gnashing. The reign of the minister watching with pleasure and increasing
appetite. We expect that progressed further and further, that it will consistently make a new
order in the name of principles. Despite the fact that this is a highly controversial figure, we
support her. Meryl Streep turns up every scene, and flawlessly creates an image of a woman
commanding and knows no compromise. This excellent for the eyes and ears strenuous
attempts to spoil the fun of incorporating "old Thatcher." Oh, shot in the knee viewer. What
the author had in mind, making this treatment? View infirm women, which is a shadow of
itself, raises not so much reflect the fate and the decline of the leaders, which disappointment
and fatigue. The viewer grinds his teeth in anticipation of the return of history on the right
track. The only reflection that comes from this surgery is persistent thought that it could be a
bloody drama and political essay in one. Instead we got a piece of meat with a barely
working streak. Let's face it, even though some of the younger Thatcher watching with
undisguised pleasure, in the end, "Iron Lady" disappointing. The role of Streep and the
potential that was applied to this image long before the premiere, not enough to give
charisma and leadership talent, which can not receive the First Prime Minister of Great
Britain. The topic was exhausted. He remained unsatisfied. .
