Most helpful review Evelyn

  • Very enjoyable

    Rated - 3.0 stars  
    By sparkie from BRISTOL, ENGLAND , 29 Jan 2005

    [Highly rated reviewer]

    Pierce Brosnan, Julianna Marqulies, Alan Bates, Aidan Quinn, the list goes on... They were all very good but the very best has to be Sophie Vavasseur as Evelyn. Not trained to act and the better for it.

    A true story... It left me wanting to know what happened next... I know it was Evelyn's story but did Doyle love Bernadette? Could they ever marry?

    Did they live happily ever after? Too may questions left unanswered for me.

  • An insightful drama, moving

    Rated - 4.0 stars  
    By a customer from Exeter, England , 25 Nov 2011
    this was a great film

    if anything it didn't get 5 stars for because it felt rushed

    it was only 1h 30mins - i reckon you could have made it 2h and gone more in depth with the story - it was a great watch so i was left wanting more - really great

    A very powerful and moving story which shows just how much a father will try to help his own child.

    Enjoyed this film from beginning to end. Unfortunately there are many similar stories of this type with the church heavily involved and found wanting but this one appears to have made it's mark politically and generated changes for the common good.

    I thought Evelyn was a great wee actress. A wee gem!

    This is a lovely little film based on a true story. Pierce Brosnan is great as the lead character and we were hooked from the opening sequence right through to the end. There is some humour too to lighten the mood and we really enjoyed the whole film - would recommend!
