valkyrie
« on: December 27, 2008, 10:48:29 AM »
I went to see Valkyrie last night, I thought it was pretty good, it seemed historically accurate to me.

did anyone else see it?

I was wondering if it was truly historically accurate and not fixed up like a lot of movies,



thanks,

Wrong forum, so this will get moved. But no, I hav't seen it yet. Heard that Tom Cruise shouldn't have done that film, he was terrible.

Aint seen it yet and its hard to believe the war coulda been finished much sooner if the second bundle of explosives had been armed and the sachel with the explosives was placed on the inside of the table leg instead of the outside a matter of a few inches could have saved alotta lives.

Maverick was actually pretty good in it, Eurotrash internet hype is no way to judge a film or the performance of it's actors.

I enjoyed South Park's ripping on Tom Cruise, and I enjoyed the Last Samurai.  I think I'll see Valkyrie, too.

No....the Maverick played by James Garner back in the late 50's  :rofl

Indeed, The Last Samurai was an excellent flick.

Saw Valkyrie on Christmas Day.  Must say that I was surprised at how well the movie was done.  The onyl thing I had an issue was with the use of a Spanish built 109 flying top cover with a 109 of proper vintage.  The Buchon engined 109 just didnt look right.  Again though, not a bad movie.
