Remarkably good fun, 16 March 2009
10/10

Looking at some of the other comments, I started to wonder if they and I had seen different movies.

Or maybe they were just in a bad mood while watching.

Regardless, I loved this movie. I found the performers -- mostly un- or little-known actors -- very good and likable. Even the bad guys displayed a certain charm.

The dialog was often clever, and often downright funny.

The story itself was perhaps not edge-of-the-seat exciting -- I mean, heck, of course the good guys were gonna win; after all, it was a wartime film -- but it kept a willing viewer watching.

If you've not seen this, I recommend it. Just remember: Context, context, context. Remember when it was made, and what was going on in the world.

And, as always, suspend your disbelief. Relax and enjoy.
