Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!

Sorry, this movie sucks

I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

Sweet film about a writer, a story and a WWII story about the island of Guernsey. Well cast, well paced and beautifully written. I hope you'll check this out and enjoy the love that magically occurs when you're in the right place at the right time.Lily James is always a delight (loved her in Pride and Prejudice and Zombies) and the rest of the cast were equally wonderful. I love when the costumes and production values are as high as they were for this movie.Enjoy!

Absolute garbage. Boring. No romance. No action. Just boring.

I read the book this was based on years ago so perhaps my fondness for it and the details have dimmed. I watched it as soon as it hit Netflix and loved it so much, I watched it again the next day. It certainly would be better served as a mini series for character development and to involve more of the original plot which was what made the book so entrancing. I thought Lily James did a fine job considering how they wrote her storyline and considering who could've played the part (Kate Winslet, Rosamund Pike). Juliet was not a strong willed female lead like Jessica Brown Finlay's Elizabeth - who was not on the screen enough in my opinion. But the chemistry between Juliet and Dawsey is what kept me enthralled. The glances and longing looks and the moments (in the bar, his bedroom when Juliet finds the book she gave Dawsey, and right before her fiance Mark shows) are so charged with energy I found myself rooting for them and wanting to rewatch those scenes over and over. Michiel Husman brings an intoxicating presence to the screen in everything he does and I could not watch anyone else when he was on. Matthew Goode's Sidney is hilarious and deserved more time and I really loved the rest of the cast which was SO well placed in their roles. It's a bit predictable towards the end but it's the ending I was hoping for so I was pleased. If they kept the same cast and expanded it to a mini series, I'd love it even more.

This movie caught my eye because I assumed it was filmed in Guernsey but it was not. I'm disappointed. I'm Canadian and some of my ancestors came to Canada from Guernsey 200 years ago. The story passed down is that they built their own ship. I was hoping to see Guernsey, not an English imitation. I've wondered for years what Guernsey is really like. Other than that, I enjoyed the movie very much.
