Solid WW II movie

Rating: 8/10 (11 December 2008)

There was a lot of suspense throughout the movie. The plot was solid though if you know a bit about history you already know how the movie is going to end. Really the only thing that bothered me about the whole movie was the fact that the main character Mr. Tom Cruise did not talk with any sort of German accent. This made it slightly less believable. I mean you would think that with almost everyone else in the movie having a German accent (almost not everyone did) that he would maybe extend his acting abilities and try to enhance his character by playing it with a German accent. Oh well you can't have it all...
It is also a very educational film that encompasses many aspects of life that a soldier serving in the German army during WWII may have.
Overall a good movie that I would recommend to anyone who likes a good movie even the non history buff types. (A few of my friends who know nothing about history said that they liked it after it was over). In fact those that are not aware of the ending may find this movie even more exciting then those that do.
