Alicia I love this movie so much

Interesteg What makes it different from others?

Afouotos Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

Mischa Redfern I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.

blanche-2 "Murder at the Home Front" is based on the memoirs of Molly Lefebure, secretary to pathologist Dr Keith Simpson (the pathologist) during WW II. She was the first woman to work in a mortuary, and known by Scotland Yard as "Miss Molly."During the London blitz, Dr. Lennox Collins (Patrick Kennedy) is assigned to do an autopsy on a prostitute who was strangled and a swastika carved on her tongue. Merchant is Molly Cooper, a reporter who becomes Collins' assistant.The chief suspect is a German, Wilfred Ziegler, who discovered the body. However, he is left-handed and the killer was right-handed.The trail leads to a club, the Metropole, where Mary spent a lot of time. Molly goes there and meets the club's owner, Danny.Two more women are murdered, and a gay actor, Ronald Terry, is put at the scene. Then Terry commits suicide, it seems, though after Lennox and Molly investigate, it turns out to be murder.Ziegler confesses and is sentenced to be hanged, though Collins is not convinced. He begins to suspect a conspiracy - at the very top. This film took a few hits from reviewers here, possibly because people were expecting more, along the lines of Foyle's War. Well, Foyle's War has no peers as far as I'm concerned. This was okay, not as terrible as described.The character of Lennox Collins (Patrick Kennedy) is based on a famous pathologist, Keith Simpson, a pioneer in the field, who solved many murder case. Kennedy gives a solid and probably a realistic performance of a dedicated doctor. If it wasn't the most exciting thing you've ever seen, I imagine he was going for an accurate approach.I didn't think Tazmin Merchant was so bad - compared to whom? The actors on Beverly Hills 90210? She was fine, and as far as no chemistry with Dr. Collins, I thought the scene at the end had plenty of chemistry and was lovely.I will concede there were some silly choices made, such as a lit street during the blackout and a certain amount of predictability.It looks like this was supposed to be a series, as there is one listed on IMDb.

gsflash1 I gave it 9 out of 10 because I found it very entertaining. I've read some comments about accuracy (who cares); it's all about the storyline which I thought held up. In the end I want to be entertained and this film accomplished that. Very refreshing compared to the trash we have to see on TV in the US.I also read other comments on the IMDb message board about the acting and in general that the production was like a high school play. Come on? I think the acting was fine.In general throughout the entire movie I think they got the look and feel of the era right. I've also seen that they plan on making this into a series. Should be good!!!

skelley-154-161909 Don't believe the reviews posted by the media snobs, this show is fun to watch, well done and is period accurate. The only thing that is stretched a bit is the sophistication of the forensic knowledge, but it's easy to overlook.If you're into rock-em, sock-em action then this is not the show for you. It mostly appeals to those who are accustomed to the pace of British shows and their propensity toward utilizing the English language rather than smacking you across the head with the obvious in the form of splashing, flashing video imagery.I loved this show, and I hope there are more in our future.

walsh-campbell The premise was so good. What a shame the final product is so mediocre. This program should be used in film school as the perfect example of style overwhelming the fundamental purpose of a film, which is to tell a story through the compelling representation of characters pursuing their objectives in a believable context (which can even be an imaginary one).Everything about the style of the film is excessive—gesture pushed to the point of camp.They should have focused more on good casting and getting the best, most three-dimensional performances from the actors, so that we would believe in them and care about them. Given the historical context (London during the Blitz), achieving that goal should have been extraordinarily easy.Patrick Kennedy as Dr, Collins was actually quite good. Tamzin Merchant as Molly Cooper was pretty awful, really. Unfortunately, there is absolutely no chemistry between their characters—which isn't too surprising, since Ms. Merchant's character is basically missing in action.All in all, I recommend you give it a miss.
