A fascinating war film that is captivating and full of suspense is currently showing on Netflix, but film fans only have 10 days to watch it as Netflix has warned that June 16 is the last day to catch the film on the streaming platform. Operation Mincemeat, directed by John Madden, is based on Ben Macintyre's book on the British Operation Mincemeat during World War 2.

The incredible film, which follows the Allies determined to break Hitler's hold on occupied Europe, has a score of 83% on Rotten Tomatoes, with fans praising the film for its cast as well as its accuracy. The film stars Colin Firth, Matthew Macfayden, James Fleet, Kelly Macdonald, Penelope Wilton, Johnny Flynn, and Jason Isaacs, who viewers absolutely loved.

Commending their work, Craig B wrote: "A fantastic cast really underpins this historical drama. Telling the story of one of the great Allied ploys to fool the Nazis ahead of the D-Day landings, it really goes to show how much could have gone wrong...and there were so many other moving pieces I was not aware of. Highly recommended to those who enjoy a well executed war drama."

The film is certainly well worth watching, as one viewer was still moved despite watching it multiple times. "This is the second or third time I've seen this movie, and it still captivates me in a way I think could be missed if you're not paying attention," Dave C wrote.

"It is a significant story told through the depth and intellect of its characters, as developed by very detailed writing, and is most definitely a slow-burner.

"The intrigue and suspense come as the story presses on, becoming bigger and more important as it does so. The source material being what it is, the prologue adds a sheen to the gravitas the film manages to achieve by the end."

Echoing the comments, Avindu G wrote: "Brilliant performances. An excellent story. Great cinematography. A spy thriller with a well executed rush of suspense and deceit. Scatters of character insights and interactions adds colour, a relatable tone. Operation Mincemeat is a both thrilling and a soothing experience. An outstanding piece of work."

If that isn't enough to convince you, according to Jordan J, Operation Mincemeat deserves the highest praise.

Describing the film a "powerful and emotional" they said: "Operation Mincemeat creates a story worth knowing of the risks the Allied Forces did to protect the world and therefore prove to be yet another War Story Movie Masterpiece".
