Movie Reviews of The Investigator
Movie Review: beg to differ
Summary: 1 Stars
I hate to disagree with the other reviews but I have been watching lesbian-themed movies for 30 years and this one is about as bad as they come. Yes, it was based on a true story but the acting, scripting, and directing are well below par. I was in fits of exasperation from the first few scenes. If you want a true story of lesbian discrimination in the military, buy this movie. If you are looking for quality drama, keep looking. This one just isn't worth it.
Summary of The Investigator
Assigned to root out lesbians in the British military, a soldier turns from hunter to preyHelen Baxendale (Cold Feet, Friends) stars as Caroline Meagher, who in the 1980s was an up-and-coming staff sergeant in the Royal Military Police. Caroline eagerly accepts a plum assignment with the Special Investigative Branch. But her task-to root out and interrogate suspected lesbians-becomes a nightmare as she gradually awakens to the truth about her own heart's desire.
Based on a true story, this stirring drama tells a shocking tale of intolerance, of private lives invaded and careers destroyed-all carried out in the name of justice when the only crime is love.
Contains strong coarse language
