Made in Dagenham is one of those films producers think will be great just because it is based on real facts. Still, you need to tell the story the right way and direct it properly.
The movie vacillates between not-so-funny comedy and emotionless drama. The script is flat, lacks depth and dynamism, some elements could have been better used like Lisa (the manager's wife). The general mood surrounding the factory is weirdly edulcorated, and doesn't seem to fit with the fight that is being presented to us.
Ultimately, Made in Dagenham is long, boring and fails to arouse real interest despite a few good scenes.
