Title: The Truth Would Have Been Interesting
Product review: Rather than using a fictionalized version through the eyes of a rather uninteresting (except for the Scottish accent), and utterly naive doctor as his improbable right hand man, why not writer a screenplay based upon Idi Amin's actual life and tailspin into the cliched king whose power and paranoia drives him crazy with bloodlust?Now, that would have been a film I may have watched to the end - not this one. It fizzled, then left one wanting.Yes, Forest Whitaker gave a superb performance, but not enough to save this bad screenplay.
