On my hiatus, Mr C Kay decided to watch a few of Tom C's flicks - an old one and a recent one - below post is going to be about the recent one.
Valkyrie
We all know what the movie is about - attempted assasination of the Fuhrer Adolph Hitler which of course is not successful. Cruise plays Col Strausberg - a German officer who realizes what Hitler & the National Socialists are doing to his army and country - and of course the inevitable outcome that Germany is going to be on the wrong side of the war.
Cruise plays a difficult role and brings intensity to the role that only he can. He realizes that if the plot does not work, his family will have to suffer the consequences but he still is willing to lead the mission.
Overall, a solid historical movie and if you're a movie fan, you will enjoy. (not sure if enjoy is the right verbage here)
