Excellent production of a story we need to know about

Rating: 9/10 (11 March 2010)

I just saw the film last night at home and I was very surprised at how much I liked the film and how intrigued I was in the telling of this story. I think the anti Tom Cruise crowd did everything they could to try and sabotage this film. But at a cost of around 90 million and a gross so far at almost 300 million world wide, the film did not lose money and the story is an important one for everyone to know about. This film is based on intelligent script writing and performances not CGI special effects and non stop violence, I think most people are so dumbed down by Hollywood they can't connect to anything that is intelligent and historically accurate, which the film is, there were very few liberties taken. I highly recommend this film for anyone who has the ability to understand complex history. Also many of the filming sites were the actual places in Berlin, which makes it that much more powerful.
