Fascinating
Based on the remarkable true story of 'Operation Bernhard' where the Nazis tried to bring down the UK economy by forging the pound, this film is completely gripping and expertly directed.

Personally, I don't like watching films with subtitles and would never have chosen to watch this if I'd known that it wasn't in English. I just can't get absorbed when I'm reading instead of watching a film. So this is just a warning to any like minded individuals out there!
