Tom Cruise should learn some German

Rating: 5/10 (19 April 2009)

I must start by saying that I like Tom Cruise a lot as an actor, and I am also very interested in the story about von Stauffenberg and the plot to take control over Germany at a crucial point in the history of WWII. However I think for the sake of originality the film should have been entirely in German. I know it can be difficult but for a well paid and famous actor such as Tom Cruise an effort to learn his lines in German should not be such a big deal. Take for instance Christian Berkel who interprets his role very well in English even if he a German actor. If Christian Berkel can learn flawless English, I think Tom Cruise and the other Hollywood actors could make an effort to learn flawless German.
