he is an extraordinary actor. besides Daniel Day Lewis, he's the only other actor i've come across who immerses so completely in a role that his real life persona becomes completely lost. hope to see much more of him.
Forest is one of the best actors of our time, He is under-rated in my opinion!! Im scottish and glad i watched this film and now i read and watch documentaries on idi amin whenever it comes to light and hope i can teach my children when those history lessons come along. SCOTLAND FOR EVER!!!!!
Forest Whitaker is one of those very few black actors who are never put in film just for a sake of token or stereotype. Believe me, that's usually the story even in 2010.
forest widowmaker is awesome he is a great acter like in street kings he is brilliant and in this movie he is as good as he is in that he might even be better he deserved a oskar for this movie
I wonder why the hell whitaker took part in that scientology shit, "battlefield earth". goddamit, he's a great actor, he should stay miles away from such garbage.

Forest Whitaker was incredibly amazing as Idi Amin. He transformed himself into the man in a powerfully captivating manner. I was on the edge of my seat watching this man perform. Give him the Oscar for best actor. He deserved it.
The guy who played Idi Amin in "Amin: the Rise and Fall" looked almost exatly like the real person. Forrest Whitaker deserves the Academy Award for this.
Yeah, I can't see this film yet until I read up on this person. Because, for one there's certainly going to be license taken and that the name is vague only to the point that it is associated with a violent tyrant. I mean, I don't even know if he is alive or dead.
After having watched this movie, I now keep picturing Whittaker with a Ugandan accent.
Similar concept applies to Don Cheadle (Iron Man and Hotel Rwanda).

Have you guys ever seen the movie 'the experiment?'
There he changes also from a very kind character to a sick and mad person.
Thumps up if you think that's a must see!

For anyone who remembers Amin, he had this mad look in his eye that Forrest Whitaker got absolutely perfect. A thoroughly well deserved Oscar.
