The Thrid Film of Christmas: Valkyrie

err.. however you spell it... alot of people feel Tom Cruise is hard to like.. " get over" bc he's so regonizable in this film, and so wierd these days in real life...
well.. i didn't really have a problem with that.. what i DID have a problem. is watching like 2 hours of tom and company trying to stage a " coo" (LOL...thats a hilarious word.. i dont thinkhats how you spell it though..)

but the THING is.. I dont wanna watch Tom as Colnel Von Furstinburg trying to get Hitler to sign papers for 45 minutes....

Hello Colnel FurstenBurg... you didn't remember to put a cover sheet oonce von TPS reports..

sorry Hitler.. it wont happen again!

eitherway.. the point is.... We KNOW from History that Hitler killed himself; and that he had a SMALL mustache.. THUS; we KNOW the protaginist plot in this film will fail.


-Thats Stike 1


now you couple a obviously failed "coo" (heh heh) with an abundance of confusing paper work and muddled administrative tasks and you've got strike 2


Now you mix THAT in with slow story teller / director Bring Singer and you've got a slow, paper work filled, history inspired FAILURE ( hmm.. sounds kind of like my life) - STRIKE 3!


I think this film did the BEST it could given the story chosen.. and its VERY interesting to see the inner workings of trying to see how someone would go about over throwing a government.
But with SOO much working against it.. and the OBLIGATION of having to tell a story historically accuratley.. you've gotta ask yourself "Why did this movie get made"

check it out of your a history Buff, or just another Hitler fan!

but me?.. i'd hit the button on the alarm clock..

this this flick is a "SNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOZER"


-good one Zia!
