Fantastic!
Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.
This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
To anyone who fell in love with the richness of character development, strength of character, the importance of family and the beauty of letters in the actual book, avoid the movie. Your heart will be torn to shreds. This movie took the menial, trivial parts of the book and put that at the focus instead of what the book leads us to know as the ultimate truth. Key characters were completely skipped over, and whole plots were added in that made the characters that were once strong and independent, flabby and frivolous. I cannot see this as a remarkable movie, as it destroyed what the book was about. If you haven't read the book, then by all means, watch this beautifully set chick-flick and then go to the nearest library and actually spend some quality time in quality literature.
There's a lot to say about this movie and at the same time there's nothing enough good to explain how good it is. One of the surprises of the year for me. It has everything that a Drama-Romance movie should have, starting with a beautiful, and at the same time rough story to tell. Beautiful acting, with a lot of fantastic interpretations by all of the ones who are part of the cast. Give it a shot, i'm sure it will not let you down.
Tearjerker! Great acting! Overall it was very nicely done. There are few good WW2 movies, but this was excellent.
I loved the story, the characters, the lanscapes, contumes, the casting, all of it!! It makes you have different feelings through the story. You laugh, you cry.It's been a while since I saw a movie I loved as much as this one.
