Heil von Stauffenberg!

This is going to be short and sweet. Valkyrie was a quality historical thriller that delves into the meat of WWII Nazi Germany. It taught me a lot of what I didn't know and thoroughly entertained me as well. Tom Cruise is still a solid actor and his performance here proves it. Even though he's a little crazy, he does a great English speaking rebel Nazi. The intensity of this movie kept me awake even though I was pretty tired. The technical aspects of this movie were also well done. Overall, I was entertained by this film.

The film is rated PG-13 for violence and language...I wouldn't show this to anyone under 13. There is a good deal of violence and language. It runs 120 minutes. I give it an above-average-but-not-the-best-film-I've-seen 7 ramheads out of 10.

  1. Tom cruise? Solid actor?
    Well... I suppose I can forgive you, nobody's perfect, after all.

    And aside from Tom Cruise's participation, I may actually go out and watch that movie, if it can keep me awake--a feat more daunting than raising and resinking the titanic.

    How's life going?

  2. I think Tom is a little crazy off screen, but he does a good job on screen. I really liked him in The Last Samurai... Life is busy but good.

    You?
