Fantastic!

Best movie ever!

Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

Anyone with knowledge of the role Pigeoneers played in WWI and the history that pigeons played in Europe from transporting news to stock market quotes before the telegraph will enjoy this movie. Movie buffs who recall the 1940 movie "A Dispatch from Reuters" know what I mean. This of course will be missed by a lot of the younger generations.The scenes of Flanders Belgium are peaceful and charming. The acting is good. Jamie Dornan looked troubled throughout the movie, not happy being the cold-hearted businessman his father created, he becomes remorseful and takes a career destructive path to redemption. Charlotte De Bruyne has that European brightness and simple hometown charm that is perfect as a sweet girl from Flanders living with her grandfather.Make sure you use the subtitles on the DVD as some of the audio is Belgian.

I just watched this movie.I found myself binge watching The Fall and I quite enjoyed Jamie Dornan's performance there, so I decided to have a look at the rest of his work,after having watched FSOG.The movie was much better than I had expected,bearing in mind that the whole pigeon racing sounded a bit boring.It was corny I guess but again,you know that you are about to watch a romantic movie so many things can be excused I suppose.I found his performance decent and pretty acceptable and the way he coloured his characher proves that he definitely has acting skills.The photography was excellent,the rest of the cast was great as well so..If you are looking for an OK movie to spend your time and at the same time admire the looks of the main lead..there you have it!

Excellent Movie! Moving story!! Specially if you are animal lover or pigeon fancier. Depicts the true human and animal nature. Truly shows what power motivate all people and animals. Transcends over cut throat billion dollar corporate ladder climbing executives. Beautiful settings and correct character depiction of pigeon fanciers. There's nowhere else you could find a better place where true pigeon racing started but the heart of Belgium. The Pigeon Sport has grown to unbelievable magnitude but of people do not know about it. Very good moral story. Excellent acting too from everyone. James Dornan is better in this movie than 50 Shades of Gray.

Not sure where to start? Sadly for me, I watched this movie after watching the recent 'hit' of Mr Jamie Dornan - 50 shades of Grey.It was like a bad deja-vu. From the movie cover, to the poor play of Mr Dornan, which could only be described as flat and torturous for our brains - almost as in a Red Room of Pain.His lack of actor's ability to transform into character - as he looks completely emotionally frozen throughout the entire movie (both of them), were probably the reason why the producers of 50 shades chose him as his lead actor - he just couldn't get any stiffer than that! Thanks to the rest of the crew for having the patience to somehow the awkward play by the end of these dreadful 92 minutes.Feeling sad for the bad advertising of Belgium through this movie.
