An okay movie but not sure if it's my cup of tea - Streep has a good performance but the character itself and the story wasn't that dramatic or engaging.

A biopic of Margaret Thatcher that fell flat. Aside from Streep's great performance, I have issues with the angle this was filmed. Through the flashbacks of Thatcher falling to dementia/Alzheimer's, I don't think those scenes strongly portrayed the times of the 80s enough and why she may have been forced to make the controversial decisions she did. What was the good/bad sides of the issues? I don't think this was a waste of time, but it could be dramatically improved.

Meryl Streep was fantastic. Now that that is out of the way, I can talk about the rest of the movie. I was very interested in The Iron Lady because I don't know much about Thatcher's life. The choice to show the movie in flashbacks didn't appeal to me. The movie did a lot to show that her relationships were affected by her political ambitions but it didn't go deep enough. The political stories didn't go deep enough either. In the end, the movie just turned out to be a wikipedia article on her.

The Iron Lady is a glaringly superficial effort which sidesteps many of the achievements and controversies surrounding a hugely divisive figure in British politics in favour of fawning, mawkish sentimentality. A poor script and awkward structure further damage its dramatic ambitions, and though Streep does a decent Thatcher impression, her performance is hardly worth the universal acclaim it was afforded.
