Most helpful review Lighthouse Hill

    [Highly rated reviewer]

    Lighthouse Hill is not a film for those who like being told a straight story. Sure, it is filled with a marvellous range of stars, but many seem to appear and disappear without much more than a wave to the camera.It has many sub plots- which like the sub- plots off the 'flying circus' of Monty's famous series, take you away from the main tale (which is itself only a faint line drawn on shifting sands.) My wife and I settled down for an entertaining evening, but were somehow disappointed. Lighthouse Hill was neither one thing nor another- it fell between two stools, not a drama- nor really a comedy.

    This is one done by the numbers, trouble is no one made sure the numbers added up. Cast try hard, script could try harder.
