      Goodnight, Mr Tom is a heart-warming tale of an evacuee, sent into the country from London, during the Second World War. The evacuee, William Beech, is a young boy who has been separated from his abusive mother, to live out the war in the country. He is "assigned" to Old Mr Tom Oakley, a hardened widower who lost his young wife and small son many years ago.

      Mr Tom struggles to reach out to poor Willie, eventually realising that he is just a scared, lonely and abused little boy, who has never b ...

      I have read Goodnight Mister Tom twice for school, and it is full of touching emotions about the change of two peoples lives. It goes into great detail about the live of a WW2 evacuee, and a likely story at that. Not much more can be said, apart from the fact it is an awesome book, and a must read for al ages. Parents, read it to your toddlers, and keep a copy for when they start reading!

      We watched and reviewed this as a class of Year nine. It is like a roller-coaster of different emotions. We feel it is realistic and believable. We like it because it has a good story-line. Perhaps the certificate should be higher, 12, because of the abuse.

      I really liked when Will is evaquated from London to live with Mister Tom, Will really showed his feelings. Tom really cared about Will to kidnap him from the hospital and make him live with him. No bad points to it but could be sad at times. I really like this story it is now my favourite film i've seen and i want to read the book.

      My teacher read Goodnight Mister Tom to me, It helped carry stories and has good use of characters, it was over complicated and sometimes hard to understand

      Goodnight Mister Tom is an excellent film showing the other side of war faced by those in Britain. It is a warm film showing love, friendship, kindness plus sorrow. I suppose all those things that children were faced with. However, it also shows courage and reality and also explains that there are chances of community still left. Excellent acting, superb scenery and an excellent story line. One to watch.
