The Sapphires

Review and Trailer Comments

  To use a well known soccer phrase, this is a film of two halfs. The first half is an introduction to the characters and story line, which lacked any real interest, and was made worse in that I could sense the camera and production crews walking around in the back round. In fact if the cast had being reading their lines from scripts in hand it would'nt have bothered me that much. The second half was better,as the whole story moved to Vietnam and was able to tune into both the music and history of the time and things started to take off and become more interesting. I was happy by the end, but it nearly took me an hour to get there. Should be on sale for seven euro shortly after dvd release.
