movie: "Atonement"

This film will be launched in germany soon. I saw a trailer twice, and thought "OMG, candy-sweet Schnulze, sentimental suffering, melodrama as kitschig as 'Gone with the wind'".

But the critics are going orbital over it. Ingeniuous adaptation, they call it. A novel that could not be filmed - has been successfully turned into a film. The best movie of the decade.

Well, I do not know book and author.

Anyone knowing the movie? What did you think? Recommended? Is there something special about it (beside a said to be highly impressive camera flight over the beach at Dunkirchen)? I mean, one scene alone does not make a good movie.
