Transatlantic (2023)
6/10
No sense of urgency, whatsoever!

Warning: Spoilers
There is a big war going on, evil forces are marching in and occupying the territory. And the same point of time, our protagonists are trying to save the people from them! So far, so good.. based on a remarkable real life story!!

But what I kept getting amused by was the LACK OF URGENCY in the script and the characters to save the lives. Everyone is just going around well dressed , seemingly making effort to save the people. At any given point of time, cops know where people are and what they are upto but they don't take any action and just wandering in the dark. At the same point, protagonists have enough time to party, carry out love affairs, make out and what not!!!

Such serious disservice done to the real story and people who braved the odds to save lives in WWII ..

Casting is decent and diverse with good locations but scripting has million loopholes and moves around like a soap opera, instead of a taut thriller with sense of purpose.
