An agonizingly amateurish WWII rom-com.

3/5

Stiff acting and a clunky script are at odds with the visual suavity, though at a mere 83 minutes, the film won't make you wait long for the sentimental denouement.

2.5/4

The plot isn't entirely successful in achieving the farcical tone it aims for.

I liked everything about the movie except Keegan, which was bad since he was the lead. A quaint story of two Allied pilots crashing in Ireland, meeting a German, and persuading him to let them shoot him down so they can be aces, while finding love. Stereotypical depiction of country Irish, almost to the extreme. Quite funny except the drinking deception went to far.

This movie was full of cliches, and Andrew Keegan's wooden/surfer dude acting.

The movie was undoubtedly short and it felt like it was rushing all the way through. The lead characters start liking each other rather quickly, and talking about marriage even moreso. I thought the girl who played Maggie was adorable. Andrew Keegan is handsome but that's about all he has going for him here. If you have absolutely nothing to do, if you have a thing for the Irish accent and beautiful landscape, if you don't mind a romcom with little laughs, then watch this.

I don't understand why everyone here hates this movie. I thought it was quite entertaining and interesting. It's a funny and good movie.

Wow, I can't remember the last time I sat through a worse movie than this. I'm not sure what was worse, the acting or the script.
