Operation Mincemeat Reviews
Wartime London has been recreated in painstaking fashion, and the performances are heartfelt and strong.
The melodrama of the unlikely romance is a minor distraction. “Operation Mincemeat” is well-crafted. Michelle Ashford’s script ably handles the intrigue while maintaining tension and injecting dry humor.
Operation Mincemeat is a stylish dive into history with a fantastic cast ready to show off their chops at any given moment.
Operation Mincemeat is an incredibly thrilling watch if not for the simple fact that this audacious event actually occurred during the second world war.
...progresses at an exceedingly deliberate pace that eventually renders its positive attributes moot...
Operation Mincemeat does not go gently into that good night. The Argo of World War II is able to overcome the obstacles and avoid the pitfalls in its way to spin and enjoyable and entertaining yarn.
Operation Mincemeat is content to rest on the considerable talents of its stars, Colin Firth and Matthew Macfadyen, but it lacks a flair for the dramatic that such a wild espionage plot truly deserves.
When “Operation Mincemeat” is focusing on the nitty-gritty, the clinical elements of the operation and how these people hope to pull it off in a way that doesn’t get people killed, it can be thrilling.
Adapted from Ben Macintyre’s book, the screenplay is a brisk and jolly affair, taking gamey delight in comparing the art of espionage to the fibs of professional storytellers.
A vaguely enjoyable watch because of the strength of its casting.
This film is an interesting study not just for history buffs, but also communications and public relations students.
It's a character-driven true story of a British operation in World War II.
No heist plot ever sounds as exciting as it is when boiled down to a big-picture overview, and that's true of Operation Mincemeat. It's thrilling on-screen, though, including when it dives into the tiniest of gripping specifics.
When the film sticks to the intricacies of the planning and execution of the ruse rather than a half-baked romantic triangle that feels more like Dirty Rotten Scoundrels its quite enjoyable as a matinee feature.
So much of the movie's script is exposition... that it feels drowned, too. In addition, illicit romance, jealousy, and competition are pebbled in so that the film's focus pulls from the operation itself.
Academic and relatively vigorous, but never as exciting as the story it tells... [Full review in Spanish]
It’s dutiful, steely-eyed and, alas, just a bit dull.
Operation Mincemeat isn’t fully satisfying but it’s still an interesting yarn to add to the memory bank.
The story and the characters gain literary depth, and the war plot shares screentime with romance. [Full review in Spanish]
The cast is big and typically I eat this espionage stuff up, but Operation Mincemeat is a bloated slog that’s tough to swallow.
