for queen and country stick washington in the center of a bunch of character a a deadpan british vet of the falkland islands war whose come home to find less than a hero welcome . the film spend the first third flesh out everyone but the centerpiece and then doesn not give him any depth a he stumble through his thick cockney mumbling from one costar to the next . the film doesn not really begin to move until close to the end when it wind up and down in about 20 minute with a less than desirable conclusion . give the typically british austerity of the film and an illfocused and bleak story and an almost complete absence of passion and and what be by film standard rather sublunary event with no payoff in the end and this flick be barely tolerable . not recommendable . ( c ) note i watch this film back to back with another british film the fourth angel which do not receive rave review but be still head and shoulder above for queen and country .
