The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare
Guy Ritchie seems to be pumping out a lot of films these days and doing more than his fair share to fill Amazon Prime's catalogue but having been burned by the rather lacklustre Wrath of Man , I wasn't sure if his latest film, The Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare , would be worth watching. The idea of learning about a relatively recently disclosed operation in World War 2 sounded exciting and Ritchie certainly had a cast who have proven their worth in other roles so began Operation Hopeful as I pressed play... During the depths of the war and with Britain suffering at the hands of the German U-boats, a rag-tag team of misfits are assembled to slip through Enemy lines and cripple the German resources on an island off the coast of Nazi-controlled Africa. The story follows a group of soldiers sailing their way along the coast, lead by Henry Cavill, and Eiza González's secret agent working on the island to help ensure the success of the mission. It all sounds exciting on paper
