[a] hammy and preposterous 1940s romantic drama; It is more of a holiday romance and the well-intentioned performances lead nowhere
by Peter Bradshaw [The Guardian ]
the bones of the story have been played a million times, but a talented and committed cast make this swoonsome rather than samey
by Helen O'Hara [Empire Magazine ]
director James Kent returns to matters of love and war in his second feature, with well-cast, well-dressed but less emotionally rewarding results
by Guy Lodge [Variety ]
as elegant post-war dramas about dark, romantic entanglements go, "The Aftermath" delivers the bare minimum; no pretty pictures can salvage the film from sinking into familiar melodramatic beats, and it's here that the actors fail to convince
Review rate : C+
by Eric Kohn [Indiewire ]
a trio of excellent performances (with Knightley standing out) save this film from an anchored and rarely inspiring narrative
by Scott Davis [HeyUGuys ]
