Eric also commended Fincher for the stylistic choice to shoot in black-and-white, and was impressed by the cast’s performances, particularly Gary Oldman’s turn as the eponymous character.
To kick things off, CinemaBlend’s own Eric Eisenberg awarded Mank a perfect score of 5 out of 5 stars in his review, saying that the movie “paints a fascinating portrait of a fascinating man” and, despite being written long ago by David Fincher’s late after Jack Fincher, is arguably more relevant than ever now.
