Most helpful review Ladies In Lavender

  • A Lovely Feel-good film for the laydees

    Rated - 4.0 stars

    [Highly rated reviewer]

    Saw this with 3 girlfriends - we all enjoyed it. It was just a nice film with humour, brilliant performances as usual by all the cast. Not for men who like fast moving action adventures. One to watch on a wet Saturday night with your mum but well worth it!

    THIS REVIEW CONTAINS SPOILERS Show review anywayHide

    Excellent casting in Judi Dench and Maggie Smith, no-one else could have played these parts better. The pace was just right, there was a little gentle humour here and there, the shipwrecked young man got his big break and life then went on for the two sisters as it had before. That was rather sad. Maggie Smith's character had had some kind of satisfaction from life in earlier days but for some reason never fully explained Judi Dench's character had missed out, possibly due to WW1, and was tempted to relive her youth through this young man. Such a setup could have been tacky but it wasn't, just rather sad.

  • Poor name for a good film

    Rated - 3.5 stars  
    By FCAhound (71 reviews) from London & Norfolk , 23 Mar 2012
    This beautifully observed film was surprisingly enjoyable given the low expectations created by the title.

    The acting performances of Maggie Smith and Judi Dench are a masterclass, frequently conveying complex emotions without the need for a single word.

    Natasha McElhone is so luminously beautiful she makes one's teeth ache.

    There's an old-style supporting cast of excellent character actors.

    Charles Dance does a very good job throughout both in script and direction.

    Nostalgic, charming and rather lovely.

  • extremely boring!

    Rated - 1.5 stars  
    By heatherj (8 reviews) , 07 Nov 2011
    I enjoy slow films but found this one simply dull. It was far too predictable and just plain boring. Even the combination of Judi Dench and Maggie Smith couldn't make it interesting
