Hays Reporting

            Keira Knightly and Sienna Miller star in Edge of Love, which is set during World War II.  Keira plays an independent woman making her living as a singer when she runs into Dylan, her first love, in a pub.  The old flame is quickly rekindled until Dylan’s wife shows up around the same time as a handsome young soldier.  A tale of adultery and violence quickly ensues as these new love interests are introduced in the plot.

            Edge of Love was a disappointment, to put it lightly.  Keira’s unexpected singing debut was unimpressive and too focused on throughout the movie.  Considering love was a major focus of the film, I was never convinced of any such emotion between the characters.  They all seemed to be pretending with each other.  I half expected this to turn into a lesbian love story, which would have at least added some excitement to the story.  I rate Edge of Love two and a half stars.
