Review of Glorious 39 (2009)

By Peter B (1,397) on 08 Sep 2011

Implausible story, utterly weak ending, would have stopped watching 20 minutes in, but the wife wanted to see it. Don't bother…

Review of Glorious 39 (2009)

By Robert A (771) on 05 Sep 2011

I thought this was a great movie. Not boring at all if one thinks back to the time this movie was cast. It had me researching England during WW2…

Review of Glorious 39 (2009)

By Kristin R (603) on 26 Aug 2011

Poliakoff goes all conspiracy theory. The ruling class want peace at any price, even after war is declared. Well, so far so good…

Review of Glorious 39 (2009)

By Paul D (6,077) on 24 Aug 2011

An interesting (and simple) premise that for me never really lived up to its potential. The ending was a disappointment…

Review of Glorious 39 (2009)

By Gayle M (63) on 17 Aug 2011

Because Romola Garai is a brilliant actress…

Review of Glorious 39 (2009)

By Jean-Francois V (150) on 14 Aug 2011

Well acted period drama with quite an original plot but for some reason lacking a real blow that makes you think your watching anything other…

Review of Glorious 39 (2009)

By Tom W (505) on 14 Aug 2011

When Glorious 39 came out, I vaguely remember reading a very short, rather negative review of it, turning my nose up, and brushing the film…

Review of Glorious 39 (2009)

By Mary C (314) on 14 Aug 2011

Brilliant performances, especially from Nighy and Garai. A smart and engaging thriller, that will leave you thinking for days to come…

Review of Glorious 39 (2009)

By Caz H (231) on 13 Aug 2011

Well for a start I think Steven Poliakoff is the finest filmic storyteller working today so there was a good chance I would like this…

Review of Glorious 39 (2009)

By David D (2,198) on 23 Jul 2011

Strangely enjoyable film. Very surreal throughout, but always leaving you with wanting to know what happens next…

Review of Glorious 39 (2009)

By Tammy M (110) on 07 Jul 2011

The plot takes a while to thicken but once it does the movie becomes much more worthwhile…

Review of Glorious 39 (2009)

By Heather M (2,904) on 26 Jun 2011

It's a Alfred Hitchcock type of movie. It has lots of twists in the movie. It will keep you guessing…

Review of Glorious 39 (2009)

By Fiona N (138) on 10 Jun 2011

Lots of suspense...love romola/bill daughter and father combo (tho this one is unlike I capture the castle).really surprising twist…

Review of Glorious 39 (2009)

By Janet B (98) on 02 Jun 2011

This movie had all the elements of a great Hitchcock style suspenseful thriller but somehow or other it completely lost the plot…

Review of Glorious 39 (2009)

By Mikey M (358) on 30 May 2011

A big fatty lump of period drama. Dreadfully realised with visual story being hammered home by dialogue overlaps throughout…

Review of Glorious 39 (2009)

By Therese O (54) on 08 May 2011

Enjoyable film with a simple storyline and good cast…

Review of Glorious 39 (2009)

By Ellen G (473) on 16 Apr 2011

Interesting story, a bit slow, but overall ok…

Review of Glorious 39 (2009)

By Michael K (2,029) on 30 Mar 2011

A solid pot-boiler about the fictional appeasement machinations of a family of high society Brits on the eve of WW2…

Review of Glorious 39 (2009)

By Reed A (15) on 27 Mar 2011

One of those glamorous, visually stunning, romantic and ultimately terrifying films only the British can make today…

Review of Glorious 39 (2009)

By James C (2,975) on 17 Feb 2011

Set in beautiful surroundings this conspiracy thriller has many fine moments but is a little long winded which lessens the considerable tension…
