Could not have been better

Rating: 8/10 (13 September 2010)

This movie was phenomenal. The directing was sleek and precise, by the amazing Bryan Singer. The story was incredibly well written, with painstaking attention to detail. You will find no embellishments here. Of course, everyone knows how the movie will end, but that doesn't take away from the suspense and the brilliant confidence with which these men acted. Tom Cruise gives one of his best and most subtle performances in years. You'll honestly forget its Tom Cruise at all. This movie is about more than just a plot to kill Hitler. It is about loyalty to a set of ethics and principles that were upheld by very few at that point in time. It is about having the courage to act when no one else would. This is an incredibly important story, because these brave men need to be remembered. They died for their country, the Germany before Hitler. This movie will creep up and floor your emotions in ways you won't see coming, and you'll be hard pressed to stop thinking about it. The critics who reviewed this movie poorly don't have a heart or a brain, just a bias against Tom Cruise. And for what? If this movie proves anything about Tom Cruise, its that he can do anything. Even put a bomb at Hitler's feet.
