The structure and pacing should be problems - spanning the military career of one man, focusing too much time in certain whimsical, undramatic moments and skipping over others... but it all works somehow. And in a tender progression unravels the protagonist’s idealism/naivety/delusion with an unexpected emotional honesty. Other films may make Kerr’s roles the centerpiece gimmick (no offense Bunuel), but here it’s just another piece of his psyche, bittersweetly examined. A lovely experience

I didn't really get into this as much as A Matter of Life and Death, but I did feel like there was something there. What at first glance seems to be a story of knucklehead soldiers getting into scrapes and hi-jinx actually ends up saying much more about life, love and the changes values and horrors of war. It never dwells on violence, or the actual fighting, but focuses instead on just one life and a few people who walk through it. Worth a second go I think.

I don’t really buy into the notion Candy keeps bringing up that war used to be gentlemanly and not feature the underhanded tactics that others insist to him are necessary to win the World War II, and I feel uneasy at the white-washed presentation of the Boer War here. It made it hard or me to fully relax and enjoy the, sometimes quite excellent, pleasures and enjoyment that other parts of the film do hold. I'm surprised I don't see this criticised more often.

Charming, but I’m afraid I’ve missed the point of the story. It seemed a rather melancholy farce. Good acting and a fine script as strong points.

While there are spots in this long-ranging "biopic" that don't seem important, most actually do have payoffs eventually. The performances are stellar: Livesey's transformation from young gun to older and wiser patriot, Walbrook's empathy for his "enemy," and Kerr taking on three mostly-different roles. There are a few drops into English history that might not be familiar to Americans but it's easy enough to get the gist of it. Very moving.

Pretty wild to see the Red Shoes team of Powell/Pressburger/Walbrook/Cardiff put their skills to use on a much more whimsical and sometimes downright wacky film. Its thematic and satirical achievements are a bit overstated but still a fun romp nevertheless.

Powell and Pressburger's very loose adaptation of David Low's comic strip character Colonel Blimp stars Roger Livesey as Clive Candy, a British military officer who serves in the Boer War and World War I, and finds his outmoded ideas of sportsmanship and gentlemanly fair play are no longer applicable to the world of World War II. Anton Walbrook co-stars as his closest friend, a German military officer, and Deborah Kerr plays three roles as the embodiment of Candy's ideal woman.

The better Citizen Kane. Probably by not trying to be. It's more down to earth, less full of itself, doesn't take itself too seriously and hast just overall more to say about life and people. And not just about the person who made it. :) The three main players are absolutely brilliant. First movie with Deborah Kerr I ever saw. In love now.

I mean, it's interesting enough, with great performances, beautiful colour cinematography and some of the most creative scene transitions I've ever seen, but politically it's a bit of a mess; don't get me wrong, Anti-Nazism is great, but it's less great when coupled with blind, unquestioning support for British Colonialism and the genocidal practices committed under it. But then again, how much nuance can I expect from a propaganda film?

There is no character in the movie named "Colonel Blimp", which actually was a popular cartoon character in the UK. The movie's hero is a Blimp-like guy. In order to understand the movie better, I suggest reading the Wikipedia article about Colonel Blimp first.

When there is the "coming-of-age" movie, then this is a "going-of-age" movie like its contemporaries "Citizen Kane" & "Tokyo Story". I think its value lies in this quality: that it can capture the passing of time and change of the protagonist like in a Bildungsroman and put it in the middle of a context where a new era begins and being audaciously humanist in a barbaric time. Besides, the cinematography is masterful despite having a fucking mainstream structure of storytelling.
