Download: The Death of Stalin review
Armando Iannucci assembles a dream team for a nightmarish orgy of power-grabbing and back-stabbing.
Raphael Abraham, The Financial Times, 16th February 2018The Death of Stalin picks up film awards
The Death of Stalin was one of the big winners at the British Independent Film Awards last night.
Bruce Dessau, Beyond The Joke, 11th December 2017The Death of Stalin review
Some critics have questioned the use of humour in depicting this dark time in Russia's history. Isn't it in bad taste? Perhaps. Nevertheless it is a work of genius from the master of dark sardonic humour. Iannucci has triumphed again.
David Kerr, Counter Culture UK, 31st October 2017Film review: The Death Of Stalin
I'll keep this review brief because if you have good taste in comedy you will have seen The Death Of Stalin already.
Bruce Dessau, Beyond The Joke, 26th October 2017The Death of Stalin, review
Weighing in at a relatively sprightly 106 minutes, The Death of Stalin is a clever and accomplished movie, well worth investigating. This is Iannucci playing to his strengths as a political satirist and mostly coming up with the goods. Interesting though, that despite a script peppered with crackling dialogue, the film's funniest scene is an entirely visual one. Go figure.
Philip Caveney, Bouquets & Brickbats, 23rd October 2017The Death of Stalin: review
He's tackled the political machinations in Westminster and Washington, so perhaps the Kremlin was the next logical step.
Steve Bennett, Chortle, 22nd October 2017The Death of Stalin is easily the comedy of the year
This delightfully silly movie is an intelligent, hilarious circus crammed full of the finest people cinema has to offer.
James East, The Sun, 20th October 2017The Death of Stalin review
This delicious new dark comedy comes courtesy of renowned political satirist Armando Iannucci (The Thick Of It, Veep).
Matthew Turner, i Newspaper, 19th October 2017The Death of Stalin - an audacious comedy of horrors
Armando Iannucci's Soviet-era satire is full of grand absurdity and violent dread.
Danny Leigh, The Financial Times, 18th October 2017The Death of Stalin: amusing, though not clever satire
Stalin dies, giving rise to a lot of averted eyes, thinking on one's feet and winging it in the Kremlin, in Armando Iannucci's passable screwball comedy which might aspire to satire but actually isn't so.
