Bryan Singer and Tom Cruse do a fine job

Rating: Null/10 (30 December 2008)

Director Bryan Singer has turned in another very interesting movie about attempts to assassinate Hitler.
Written by screenwriters, Christopher McQuarrie and Nathan Alexander, Valkyrie kept my interest throughout and more so in the second half.
The talented cast of actors, with Tom Cruise in the lead role includes Kenneth Branagh, Bill Nighy, Tom Wilkinson, Carice van Houten, Thomas Kretschmann, Terence Stamp, Eddie Izzard, Kevin McNally, Christian Berkel, Andy Gatjen, Jamie Parker, David Bamber, Tom Hollander and David Schofield. All of them do a fine job.
Some very fine cinematography by Newton Thomas Sigel. And a lovely musical score by John Ottman.
Singer (along with the writers) was also able to interject some humor in this very serious piece.
Enjoyed it.
