One of my Favorites

Rating: 8/10 (26 June 2010)

I first saw this movie in theaters without knowing nothing about it, my friends kind of just dragged me along. When I left the theater, I remember thinking that it was a spectacular movie. It keeps you on the edge of your seat, and always has you thinking. The day this movie came out on DVD, I just had to buy it, and have watched it at least a dozen times. I have always loved war movies...mostly for the blood and gore, but this one doesn't have any blood, or gore, and still manages to be a favorite of mine. The only complaint that I have about this movie is that you already know how it is going to end, but even with that, it still had me just as sad to see it happen. And to anyone who refuses to see this due to Tom Cruise: Get a life, and don't judge actors on their personal life. Just because someone may think differently than you does not mean that they aren't a good actor. Tom Cruise happens to play the part perfectly. So I would advise anyone to at least give this movie a rent, and if you end up liking it, then you will definitely want to buy it.
