In Which We Serve

CriticsCritics: 84
AudienceAudience: 7.0

After a British destroyer is sunk in the Mediterranean during World War II, survivors await rescue while the ship’s history and the personal lives of its crew unfold through flashbacks. Their experiences at sea and on the home front explore loyalty, duty, courage, and the strain war places on families.

My take

You’ll likely enjoy this if you appreciate character-focused wartime dramas such as The Cruel Sea, but Not for you if you prefer modern pacing, understated patriotism, or action over home-front stories.
