    Heartbreaking yet so inspiring! Such courage these women possessed who knew the risks were very possible they would not survive. Because they believed in their mission and abhorred Hitlers violence so much that they were willing to risk it all as many did. These women were all heros. A must watch!

    Well despite the usual stupid men, clever women stuff at the start this turned out to be engaging as it was clearly based on real people and events - courageous people whose courage often goes unsung.

    Thomas and Apte were good. Katic wasn't up to the roll at all given the potential depth of the character. A gal tale. A lot of spies died in the early going, mostly men but the focus of this movie one woman in particular so the theme centered around women seemed apt. Important story but a light weight in execution. Some scenes really not staged well at all and transitions a little clunky. It's like they knew what had to come next, slapped a scene together to advance the plot and hoped it would work in editing. Like making it to the river. But in the end it was informative, historical and told the story of exceptional women, one in particular with a wooden leg.

    Overall, those who enjoy a dramatic war film will find this story very interesting and touching.  It is a story I was not familiar with, filled with tremendous performances and a strong musical score.  Considering this is the director's second feature, it is certainly praiseworthy and was able to bring a true story to life that is rather powerful and unforgettable.

    Good performances and decent production support the incredible true stories of three women who chose to create and become spies during ww2. Definitely worth watching

    A fairly solid war movie based on actual events. Whilst there are no notable big screen movie names on show, some familiar TV stars are pretty good and make up a worthy ensemble cast. If you like wartime movies, worth watching.

    Solid movie making. A wonderful tribute to these strong women doing their part to fight against evil. All 3 main female leads were outstanding in their characterizations…sober, committed and real. I really enjoyed the fact that the film did not play like so many movies that have to manufacture tension. The story told itself without overly dramatic music nor contrived situations.

    It was great. A good story of some really brave folks. If a WWII buff you will really like it.

    Surprisingly slow but interesting enough because of its true story.
