A feel good movie, with such a wonderful story based on true events.
Although the movie is a little slow in places, the two main characters played by Michael Caine and Glenda Jackson are nothing short of outstanding, and deserve the accolade they are receiving.
In real life they are both in their golden years, and the characters they play are of a similar age, but they are so believable, and you warm to them almost immediately, just like your own family.
The Great Escaper is both enjoyable and easy to watch, all of the characters are played so well, and the emotions felt whilst watching are so real, it's a movie all will enjoy.
It's never going to be a Hollywood blockbuster, and was likely never intended to be. It's just a wonderful real story brought to the screen, with the help of two truly wonderful actors.
