they want you to believe this is a tense D-Day war-thriller when in actuality it is a diva-off between two meteorologists with clashing strategies and personalities. and, crucially, they’re played by two of our finest working actors: Andrew Scott (wearing beautiful blue…
mia lee vicinoJun 20, 2026I was actually quite moved by this. If someone asked me weather or not they should see this I would maintain my position: go.

History already told us D-Day worked. Pressure makes you sweat like it didn’t. Anthony Maras turns a meteorological standoff into a legitimate thriller, centering the 72 hours before the Normandy invasion on one question: do you trust the weatherman? Andrew Scott is quietly…
@Mr. Like🔥🔥🔥May 24, 2026One guy thinks it's going to rain. Another guy thinks it won't. Brendan Fraser is caught in the middle.

🫎🫎🫎🫎 Regardless of what is fact and fiction and looking at this purely as a film, this was very good. I was pleasantly surprised. Lots of war depictions can leave characters feeling stale, however, with Stagg it is the complete opposite. This movie does a great job introducing his strict…

Weatherman are boring, but how can the weather be boring. Good acting from the leads, really showed how much pressure was on these generals during a war and how it weighs on them. Good building tension throughout, but overall just fine movie.
Best part of the movie was that it did not take away from the real heroics of the soldiers. Yes there’s a main character that you can root for, but at the end of the day, the movie is about how he helps the heroes that make their way to shore.

Amazing story behind the scenes of D-Day. The tension is real throughout. I would recommend to non-history or war buffs. The movie does a fantastic job explaining what’s going on and why it matters without assuming any prior knowledge.
The incredible story that is told in this film is not one that you would expect to be interesting, but it is. This harrowing tale about the weather and its effects on the war is something that kept everyone on the edge of their seats.
