The Balloon Goes Up Audience Reviews

Bergorks If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.
Aneesa Wardle The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
Leoni Haney Yes, absolutely, there is fun to be had, as well as many, many things to go boom, all amid an atmospheric urban jungle.
Aspen Orson There is definitely an excellent idea hidden in the background of the film. Unfortunately, it's difficult to find it.
malcolmgsw This film stars radio comedians Revnell and West and crooner Donald Peers.Top billed is Ronnie Shiner who would reach stardom after the war.The film does not have much of a plot.The girls tray to enlist in the WRAF so that they can attend a camp show.They borrow uniforms and attend the show where they perform a number.They are assigned to a barrage balloon detachment and sing another song.They try to get out of camp but they can't without a pass.They manage to escape from the camp.They hide in a house which is being used by spies.They manage to recover stolen secret papers.There is a chase and the spies are caught.At the end there is a sequence showing the balloon units in operation which is about the only thing of interest in the film.
