He did it again. More to come but suffice it to write that it's emotionally effective.
Valkyrie - C+, The story in and of itself is compelling unfortunately the movie never really takes off. The best parts, however, were after the bomb went off. And Cruise is fine in it. He doesn't lift the movie but he doesn't drag it down. He's clearly a target and it's unfair this time. I wish those who took glee in savaging Cruise took a little more care to honor the subject matter. What those men did was good and principled. It cost them their lives in gruesome fashions and that of their families.
