Tosh - The Exception review by JD
This has to be one of the worst movies I have seen this year.
The story is pure rubbish.
It is totally implausible , concerning the exciled Kaiser Wilhelm in 1941, and a British spy who happens to be a maid in the house. The head of security orders her to strip naked on their first meeting ? Why other than a gratuitous sex seen. At their next meeting, she orders him to strip, hence an excuse for another gratuitous sex seen.
I could go on but it gets worse, ..............

THE EXCEPTION - The Exception review by SM
It was all a bit obvious and boring. I though Christopher Plummer played a good part though, otherwise poor film.

So so - The Exception review by AL
A bit unbelievable and not that gripping. Did feel abit like watching a stage play, heres one scene, now here's another. However Christopher Plummer and Eddie Marsan were good.
