The Last King of Scotland : Rivetingly Enjoyable



In an incredible twist of fate, a Scottish doctor James McAvoy on a Ugandan medical mission becomes irreversibly entangled with one of the world's most barbaric figures: Idi Amin (Forest Whitaker). Impressed by Dr Garrigan's brazen attitude in a moment of crisis, the newly self-appointed Ugandan President Amin hand picks him as his personal physician and closest confidant. Though Garrigan is at first flattered and fascinated by his new position, he soon awakens to Amin's savagery- and his own complicity in it. Horror and betrayal ensue as Garrigan tries to right his wrongs and escape Uganda alive.

Directed by Academy Award Winning co-actor Kevin MacDonald, The Last King of Scotland became something that entangled by love but still perplexed is whether she is waiting or not. Rivetingly enjoyable, Heart pounding brilliant, a Stunning achievement, and sensational all for the picture.
