Yeap, it is, boring! For a story happening in the beginning of the most horrendous war on history, there is very little drama or action here. England was bombarded weekly, sometimes daily, but they barely cover the horror of it. The story is also very similar to other movies of beautiful women giving themselves to low life men and finding love on the most logical way, a working and a dedicated man. The cinematography is very good, and the directing too although the director commit the mistake of a slow and desperte tempo. All the actors are great with Mrs Arterton doing an excellent performance. It is the story which is very disappointing and boring.

I do not know if they tried to do something else. I do not think so. But at least they have managed to make a movie that you see with affection. Gema appears and fills the screen and you follow her to see what happens to her, although you know perfectly how it will end, but the film is credible and that is not all.He takes many things as a caricature and makes them as such but he does them well.The three protagonist actors are great, but the others are also very good. Is that even those who have to fall ill, you like. That is difficult to achieve and get the viewer in your pocket.Costumes, makeup and art are splendid. They manage to get you into that historical moment.Photography is very good, it's very English and that's good. There are moments that bring a lot of light, but at least they are few.The address, although it does not make plans that look nice to me. But at least, it takes the movie well, it does not bore you and it puts you in your pocket. Get you watch the movie and follow it to the end.It's a movie to see the

Imagine your country fresh into the active part of a war you're not winning. You need a job and wind up on the screen writing team of a group of actors and producers who are putting together a patriotic war film of the recent fiasco in France culminating in the disorganized rescue of hundreds of thousands of soldiers from the beaches at Dunkirk. As you are doing all this, bombers are flying over your head and you keep losing bits of the set and various co-workers.This is the tale told in "Their Finest" a well-done film of the type that the British still manage to pull off, going into their past and providing believable representation of a different time.The simple to describe task of turning out a creditable patriotic war film is complicated by the various parties who review the work and not only critique the film, but have the power to make major changes what appears to be any time. The characters are continually at work making allowances for a script that does not follow reality because the reality was much more mundane than drama calls for, or when actors renege or forced upon cast members can't act, or a script-writer is called away.The cast is well chosen and capable and attractive. The movie set within a movie is cleverly written and depicted. This movie is entertaining, draws the viewer in, does not 'appear' to be full of surprises but was clearly a work of technical expertise that paid off.

The film was based on the book and about filmmaking, particularly screen writing. Fictional comedy-drama that is set in London in 1940. While the war tearing apart the nation, some people are not disturbed by it. They are going ahead with their film projects, especially war themed to boost the people's confidence. That's when the new arrival, Mrs. Cole, begins her career as a writer. So her experience working with the scripts, meeting the real people whose story are getting adapted and her gloomy romance, everything lets us know.A nice film and a little different than the majority of the film that came this year. The focus was good. I mean while bombs falling from the sky, all this tale concentrated was film business. Something like 'Argo', but given less preference to the war, except its consequences which diverted their plan in some scenario. So there were many small-small twist and turns. It also gets emotional at one stage. A well written and directed film similar to what the film characters did their best in the story.Gemma was good, but Claflin was totally different, in a good way. As much as I enjoyed, I also thought it should have been even better. Because thematically it was not for everyone. I mean the world war was a good idea, but the filmmaking was not like you are usually familiar with. Besides, it was not a laughing out loud comedy. Between the seriousness of war and fun around making films, the combination was rare and well worked out. Those who love pre 50s, 40s settings in a film would enjoy it for sure. Especially if they like films about films.6/10
