I Was really expecting better from Guy Ritchie than what I watched, it's supposed to be 1942 and there are some real mis-casting going on as seems to be the way in this modern era, so not really authentic of 1942, which is really starting to annoy me, in a lot of period television dramas and films.
It seemed to be done all too tongue in cheek and a little too farcical for my liking, so it didn't really hit home the real story of operation Postmaster that the SOE conducted in WW2 against the Nazi forces.
I managed 30 minutes before I binned it, a real missed opportunity to tell an amazing story of real life heroism, written, filmed and directed in what came across in a jokey manner.
I see other reviewers are raving about this movie, but, If you are someone that likes history and WW2 history in particular, I think you will be disappointed.
Guy Ritchie normally a good director misses the target for me sadly with this movie. 5/10.
