Review of Valkyrie (2008) by Chris S — 07 Mar 2015
The "Critics Consensus" is total bunk. "Disposable yarn?" This is no "yarn." It's history. Along those same lines, the little dweeb of a "critic," Anders Wotzke, make some juvenile comment about Cruise not looking German.
How about taking a few seconds to do an internet search of Claus Von Stauffenberg before revealing yourself as a fool, Anders? The likeness is quite remarkable. I highly recommend this film. The story is true, the cast is stellar, and the acting is phenomenal.
In a powerful way, this film answers the question, "How good the German people all just go along with Hitler?" The answer is they didn't. This film is a wonderful tribute to a few truly brave members of the resistance that paid a dear price for coming ever so close to taking out Hitler.
