Atlantic City Weekly - 10/10 by Lori HoffmanTouching World War II remembrance of Blitz-torn London
Common Sense Media - 8/10 by Andrea BeachNostalgic look at London during WWII has sex, mature themes.
EmanuelLevy.Com - 8/10 by Emanuel LevyThe Blitz as a comedy: Director John Boorman offers a warmly nostalgic view of his childhood in a London suburb during WWII.
Antagony & Ecstasy - 7/10 by Tim BraytonThe precision of the characters and the performances that John Boorman draws out of his actors make this a pleasure even when when it's a bit pokey and aimless.
User Review - 10/10 by Michael EHilarious movie. Loved the children ! The cinema scene was SO much like my experiences as a small boy in late 40's and early 50's at matinees in Toronto theatres of that era!! Just a superb heart warming movie!
User Review - 10/10 by David TA truly endearing tale that so aptly preserves time and place; it's regional voice and ability to transport one to the similar memoirs of WASP parents (or grandparents) is remarkable. I felt like I was there, in so many scenes. The writer/director so perfectly empathizes with his characters, that -- despite the audacious circumstances that they stumble upon -- one can never doubt their veracity. Some of the sunset silhouettes (the hodgepodge of ages and classes clamoring after contrasting objects-of-treasure, amidst the fresh ruins of Blitz bombing) are the best in cinema. And the voice of Churchill silencing the ambient sound arrests me as plainly as its characters who drop everything to huddle around the radio. This film is as watchable today as it was over 20-years ago!
