Valkyrie

Watching this movie reminded me of a quote that I read in the opening of another one: "All that is necessary for Evil to triumph, is for Good men to do nothing."

I am very sure everyone knows the long and short of this movie and how the story turns out in the end. Perhaps watching it with that in mind free up all expectations which allows us to soak fully into the little details of its deliverance.
This must be the most amazing World War II film I have ever seen with the least shots fired but yet the intensity kept me hanging to the edge as the plot unfolds and the tide turns.
They even included a nice little touch to the preserve the authenticity of the film as they did for a much earlier movie involving Russian submarines.

Being a nut of the Romanic standards, insignias and uniforms from the Third Reich. I have waited a long time to watch this movie knowing that the different costumes involved are all the uniforms of Nazi Germany. They turn out to be quite the splendid sight as I have imagined them to be.

This may not at all seem like a movie to bring the Ladies to other than the fact Tom Cruise is in it. I would not be surprised if they secretly Thank you for taking them to it after when the credits roll.
