I think there was a problem on framing the story of Margaret Thatcher and the over-all direction of the film. Meryl Streep was incredibly great though, and that's not a surprise.

I gave this full marks for Streep's performance; aspects of the film's structure were not very interesting.

Meryl Streep is great, no surprise there. What is a surprise is how forgettable this film (and performance) is.

I add this movie in my "Top War" list because it have relationship with a war for me. But definitely this is a drama, biography movie.

Meryl Streep as Margaret Thatcher and Jim Broadbent as Denis Thatcher. It portrayed the first female prime minister in UK who has a strained relationship with her daughter and mother. Live video footage's, flashbacks and a mixture of both were utilized in the style of Forrest Gump. The picture's score and and outstanding performance of Streep were noticeable. She is the only reason to view this film. Its direction however was unstructured and usage of frames on top of each scene was confusing instead of presenting everything chronologically. The Iron Lady is a descent look at the life of Margaret Thatcher the film's lackluster effort in depicting her in a lighter note.
