Am I Missing Something?

Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?

I have never understood how directors and producers can pay so much attention to female costumes and hair styles, and then have the guys wearing their hair like they did the year they were hired. This movie is literally filled with sideburns and hair that is way too long! Thinhs were hectic during wartime, but the military still required its soldiers to get haircuts, and guys did not wear their hair touching their collars and ears. In a more technical mode, I believe that flyers on bombers used neck microphones that required them to press on buttons, including the pilots. And I usually like Harrison Ford's acting, but he seemed to be stuck in a sarcastic Han Solo mode.

a war film, a love story, inspired lesson about moral values, Harison Ford in a role who reminds many others from his career. a movie who seduce for the right dose of spices. adventure and tension and love, sacrifices, duty and honor. all as brick of delicate beauty of an admirable work for its science to be not great but useful in the manner for becomes memorable. because it is little more than a war movie and little more than a romantic story. the soft feeling after its, the sacrifice, honesty and the wise choice are drops from classic school of genre. and that is the most important in that case. a film who must see . not exactly for its fame. but for the feeling after its end who defines it like one of real beautiful love stories.

I don't understand all of the negative comments about this movie. Whist by no mean is it a perfect movie, it is not a bad one and is more than watchable. Which can not be said of a lot of movies these days.Lesley-Anne Down is Margaret a Nurse who meets and falls in love with an American pilot (Harrison Ford) in England during World War 2, she is however married to a secret agent (Christopher Plummer) who ends up on a mission with Ford.This movie tells the story of what war is like for lovers, soldiers, and ordinary civilians caught up in it.Back in the pilots seat Ford is as reliable as you'd expect him to be at that time, Down, whilst looking very attractive gives an OK performance, but it's hard to feel any sympathy for her situation, as she is simply bored in her marriage to Plummer (who is as solid as you'd expect) and lusts after Ford. Ford's character for his part doesn't know she is married, and her trusting husband, does not suspect a thing. The rest of the cast is fine Richard Masur is a stand out performer and Kudos to a young Patsy Kensit as Down and Plummer's daughter. Shane Rimmer is also worthy of note as Ford's Colonel. John Barry's score is lovely and reminds me of his work in Somewhere In Time.The movie was sadly a critical and commercial flop upon release (despite Ford still being hot from 'Star Wars') which is a shame, as it is a much better movie than Pearl Harbour released a few years ago, which is more or less the same story but with a lot of CGI replacing genuine tension and not nearly as good performances.Everyone involved quickly moved on to other projects. Hyams directed the Sean Connery space thriller 'Outland' Barry composed the music for the next Bond flick 'Moonraker', Plummer starred opposite Christopher Reeve and Jane Seymour in Somewhere In Time, Down starred opposite an in his prime Burt Reynolds and David Niven in the crime caper 'Rough Cut' and Ford, well he went off and made Empire Strikes Back and a little known picture by the name of Raiders Of The Lost Ark.

I used to say, no good movies came out of the 70's, that was until Stars Wars and then Hanover Street, of which this review is about. I loved the movie the first time I saw it and watched it again today for about the twentieth time. I have no problems with Leslie-Anne Down's looks nor the B-25s . And Mr. Ford's hair? Really! The play's the thing and Hanover Street is a good one. In fact it's so good I will be showing it in my theater next week to friends who have never seen it. I loved David Halloran's smart-aleck-without-being-obnoxious manner. It fit in the absurdity of war. Drama-Action-Romance-in an intelligent script - who could ask for anything more? I'll take more of Director/Writer Hyam's stuff. And, the ending was great, great, great!!! And the score was phenomenal and beautiful! I liked this movie and especially recommend it to the ladies. Be sure to grab the tissue box, although, maybe that should be tissue boxes.
