Like Armando Iannucci’s other work, The Death of Stalin is a reliably funny romp—it’s just not going to be seen as one of his best efforts.
Army of One could have been a lot of different things, with plenty of room to shock and titillate fans of Larry Charles’ usual propensity for visceral subversions of cultural norms. Instead, the movie falls flat as a conservative piece of biographical fiction.
