Stellead Don't listen to the Hype. It's awful

FuzzyTagz If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.

ThedevilChoose When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

Rosie Searle It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

jcs-53848 A good, immensely watchable film. I thought the story was interesting, clear and believable (and differed in a few respects from the original play), the acting was on the whole very good and many of the scenes were charmingly filmed. The film explores a number of gritty themes, including the loss of loved ones to war, exploitation of women in the workplace, and the harsh attitude of society towards unmarried mothers in the mid 20th century.

Kim Harris I wouldn't go as far as some reviewers as to say that this film is valueless. There are some interesting ideas, particularly the treatment of single mothers at the time. However the initial plot line is inexplicable and the whole thing seems under-rehearsed and rather amateurish. The acting is rather wooden at times. If comes across as a low budget production, possibly even a student project. It was not a total waste of time spent in watching it but there are certainly plenty of better films to watch.

whittakermark-24526 I'm involved in a local am dram group and I can honestly say we could have done this so much better. Wooden expressionless acting, awful sets, and what on earth was the pub scene about? I kept wanting to turn it off but kept giving it a chance to get better. Sorry, but this has got to be the worst film I've ever seen. I should have known when i saw the homemade sea mine! One to avoid I'm afraid, done properly it could have been so much better.

moz-26181 Must have cost just a few quid to make this, in fact ive seen more expensive productions come out of a local school. Acting is woeful, which is a shame because the characters seem likeable. The polystyrene sea mines at least gave me a laugh.Completely unbelievable plot. I continued to watch this film until the end to give it a full chance of redemption. The acting just got worse, in some parts the actors are actually stuttering to find their lines..Watch it for a laugh or as an exercise in how not to make a film.
