James Mottram
The real-life Second World War mission Operation Postmaster forms the basis for this raucous action comedy from director Guy Ritchie. In 1941, the highly capable Gus March-Phillipps (Henry Cavill) is tasked with leading a black ops sabotage raid on Italian vessels near the island of Fernando Po. When Alex Pettyfer's SOE agent is captured by the Gestapo, it soon becomes a life-or-death rescue job. Based on the 2014 book Churchill's Secret Warriors by author Damien Lewis, the film takes a fast-and-loose approach to history, which may rankle some. But with an excellent ensemble - including Freddie Fox as Ian Fleming and Rory Kinnear as Winston Churchill - it plays to Ritchie's strengths. As with his Cavill-starring remake of The Man from UNCLE, this is a rollicking adventure with some energetic action sequences and a freewheeling sense of fun.
