Its not about golf but much of the screenplay is about searching for balls in the undergrowth. The screenplay does not go anywhere fast but goes up & down in the same spot. The ending is disappointing – everything goes flat at some stage I suppose.
Without wishing to be disrespectful to those that suffered it doesn't offer much new to justify two hours. Having said that if you prefer to see a drama rather than a documentary about being a POW to the Japanese then this is worthwhile.
