- Synopsis:
- Inspired by real events and from the director of 'The Full Monty' (Peter Cattaneo), 'Military Wives' is the heartfelt story of friendship, love, and support on the home front. When Kate (Kristin Scott Thomas) persuades a disparate group of women on the base to form the Military Wives Choir, Lisa (Sharon Horgan) is initially sceptical and embarrassed by such an amateur bunch. However, she is quickly transformed by the choir's friendship, humour and courage. Finding their voice together, Kate, Lisa and the choir put aside their own personal differences and, by singing their hearts out, bring joy, hope and strength to the world.

Standard british drama - Military Wives review by TH
Military wives is one of those british films that entertains with a likeable cast of actors and some laughs mix with sadder moments. This feels like the sort of film you would happily watch in a sunday afternoon and enjoy.
Sharon Horgan is great as always and the supporting cast are good too.
It's a good story and worth a watch but not sure it would warrant repeat viewing.

Not my cup of tea but the film has merit - Military Wives review by JB
Perhaps 3 stars is a bit mean but didnt think it worthy of 4 .Well acted ,cast are believable but lacks a spark.I won't share the plot line as I think you probably know it .Suffice to say the speed that the "choir" went from 1st practice to a perfect song at the Albert Hall was very quick .To the films credit it's meant wives in the military starting choirs all over the world so fair play to it.Would have given it 3/& a half if I could.

Heart wrenching but beautiful - Military Wives review by giantrolo
Loved this film! It was a proper tear jerker - I spent about 25% of the film quietly sobbing! - but it was so lovely that it was worth the tears. It shines a spotlight on a really important part of society that I never really thought about (or considered existed) - the wives or partners of those brave soldiers who go out and fight for their country. Excellent performances, lovely vocals and definitely a highly recommended film!
