Review

A handful of wonderful young to middle-aged British actresses in inordinately sympathetic roles is what makes this fun, little historical document equal parts enjoyable and innocuous. It's the type of social criticism which is so far removed from the controversy at hand that there is no longer any controversy to discern, which also means that the film is lacking whatever nerve that the script at times proclaims to have. That being said, Made in Dagenham is well aware of its own harmlessness, and rather enjoys it. The film is so feel-good that it even feels good when things are going awry. Among many heart-warming character relations, the relationship between Sally Hawkins and Daniel Mays is the most moving, even if Rosamund Pike's character in many ways is the most interesting.
