Valkyrie Review

Rating: 10/10 (8 April 2009)

I really liked Valkyrie and the reason I liked this movie because it is about WWII and Valkyrie is about the failed assassination attempt of Adolf Hitler. The performance of the actors was very tremendous. I actually loved Tom Cruise's performance. The other reason I liked this movie because it was not in German language with English subtitle. The supporting cast though was great. Kenneth Branagh, Bill Nighy and Tom Wilkinson were played role in the success of this movie and they certainly filled in story perfectly. This movie had a lot of potential but it stayed within the realm of mostly a suspense action and drama movie. Valkryie reminded me of a old European movies with its style, location and dialogs. It's very interesting part of the movie was where they though they killed the Hitler and the start operation Valkytie by capturing Hitler favored military leaders but later they found out he survived the attack. Valkryie perfectly illustrates how the smallest of things can have the biggest impact.
