best movie i've ever seen.

Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties. It's a feast for the eyes. But what really makes this dramedy work is the acting.

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.

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.

This was very poor. Hesitant, expressionless acting. We wondered why anyone had ever presented it as viable drama. I've seen better student shows for charity.
We were mesmerised by how bad it was. The Nazi commandeering the wee boat was a joke. The interviews with Sarah at the home, were sticklike. Cringe making stuff: we were embarrassed for them.
The children were the best actors in it.
This ought never to have reached the light of day - or the dark of night.

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.
