So I watched Death of Stalin yesterday and, although I definitely enjoyed it, I ended up slightly disappointed. I think I went in with the wrong expectations though expecting it would be more vicious like In The Thick of It, In The Loop or Veep. It was a clever stomp through the changeover though and some good performances (Beria in particular) and I did like the decision to take it in the direction of a theatrical farce rather than dwelling on the historical brutality.

I recall laughing a lot. Great cast! I mean; Michael Palin and Jeffrey Tambor alone are great. But I thought Jason Isaacs stole the show. It was good ole fashioned cinematic fun.
