I'm a sucker for tearjerkers -- I still cloud up at the end of favorites such as Saving Private Ryan and Forrest Gump even though I've seen them a dozen times -- and I expected that kind of emotion from this film, and was surprised not to get it. The performances are wonderful, especially those of Helen Mirren and Bob Hoskins, but the underlying premise of the movie never seemed to lure me in. I enjoyed it, but was somewhat let down.
