Operation Mincemeat is a film with very few bells and whistles.
It has an interesting story to tell, and it tells it well enough, however unnecessary romantic subplots make the whole thing 20 minutes too long.
I think the pacing is a little off as they place the focus too much on the establishment of the plan and not enough on how it pans out.
The performances are all fine. Nothing overly flashy. There is a good feel to the film, capturing the period well.
Overall a perfectly decent film, worth watching to learn about a remarkable and crucial military operation, but there's nothing particularly remarkable about the filmmaking.
