Under the radar

This film has a good cast, is very well made and I enjoyed it. It's set in the household of the former Kaiser during WW2 and revolves around a British spy and an honorable German officer.
I had never heard of it, box office mojo indicates it had a very limited release and there are few reviews to google. I think it's just one of those films that slipped past everyone which is a pity because it's really quite good - not great but much better than some films I paid to see last year.

I agree. I only found out about it after searching “Lily James” on Netflix. It wasn’t Trending or anything; one would really need to dig for it to find it. And the movie was well done. Acting was superb. The chemistry was off the charts. Ending was worth it. An underrated movie.

I love WW2 movies and this sounds really interesting. Never heard of it before seeing it in the trending section here. I'm going to watch it soon.

Also agree. I think we saw the previews for it, but somehow never saw the actual film come out. Quite well done. Lily James is very different here from the role she plays in Downton.

It's an interesting set-up and the cast is good;even Jai Courtney.
