3/5

It showcases Boorman's great humanity, but (like Hope and Glory, for that matter) it is almost entirely free of the mild derangement that characterises his best work.

Life and cinema united in the mind of the protagonist, providing really surreal episodes in the barracks, undoubtedly the most interesting of the film. [Full Review in Spanish]

Having loved Hope and Glory I was a bit hesitant going into this film. Much to my surprise it was an interesting story with the same mix of laughs and charm balanced with some gut punching all too familiar moments.
