Glafira Regina O A pretty good film with a beautiful, true-to-life story—the tale of the first women’s choir formed by the wives of soldiers fighting in Afghanistan. I’m not claiming every detail is factual (it’s a movie, after all, and some events were clearly added to spice up the plot), but the gist is clear. It’s a bit sentimental and sugary for my taste, and there are no real twists—everything unfolds quite predictably—but it’s still worth a watch. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 05/19/25 Full Review Rosana B “A Esposa dos Heróis” é baseado em fatos reais foi um movimento iniciado por duas mulheres, esposas de militares que foram para o Afeganistão, ganhou popularidade em 2020, havia 75 corais desse tipo operando no Reino Unido, o filme é delicado e angelical, até mesmo na rixa entre as duas mulheres, é singelamente retratado, exceto pela troca de farpas final, forte e necessário para dar dramaticidade a trama, muito musical e liricamente linda… Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/08/25 Full Review Ellen C It had a story-line that pushed me to stick to it through the end with my husband, who is a sentimentalist and sat weeping throughout the latter part. Will they succeed? (Foreordained.) I didn't laugh once; the comedy was the worst part of it. It was a tissue of cliches and sentimentality. It could have been far better. How? I'm not a screen-writer; I don't know. But I do know when a film is MEH. This one fit the bill. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 12/10/23 Full Review meredith w With their partners away serving in Afghanistan, a group of women on the home front form a choir that becomes and media sensation and then a global movement. This true-life story makes for a moving and easy-to-watch tale of friendship and love. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Daniel G Pleasant movie, with good music, appealing characters and some drama, but ultimately a bit cookie cutter and feel good. It was a nice homage at the end to have real military wives' choirs singing together from all over UK (including possessions abroad). Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 12/09/22 Full Review isla s I thought this was quite a cheesy film - its a little cliched, even though its based on a true story, it felt a bit too 'obvious' I suppose?. Its a nice enough story for the most part though and the cast do an alright job, with some nice themes. Its an ok watch but I wouldn't recommend going particularly out of your way to see this. I thought it seemed more like a TV film or an extended TV show, rather than an all out film as such, although I did like the last scene before the credits, which brought home the fact that it is a real life movement as it were.
