Movie Review - Valkyrie
Valkyrie, starring Tom Cruise is a World War II era movie. It is based on a true life event, an assasination attempt of Hitler. I liked watching a Nazi, WWII movie after a really long time.In the credits, was mentioned that this was just one of the 15 known attempts to kill the Fuhrer ! Astonishing, made me deeply wonder how the world would have been almost a century ago.
The plot to assassinate is during 1944, just 8 months before Hitler commits suicide. Its a good movie, for those who like history. Go watch.

Will do, as commanded! :)Now that I have too much time on hands than I can handle, I intend to zombi-fy myself in front of TV :)
Some of the greatest movies I have ever watched have been based uponWW I and II (mostly II). Now I feel like writing about each one of them..........I think the other blog is long due for its comeback....I just need to get that first impetus ..hopefully soon.....
want to watch this one... ur review will probably move me into action soon!
Sometime i wonder..what do the people of germany opines about Hitler..dont know what they teach in history about WW2 in their school..it would be interesting to know their side of the story.
@ moi - Yes i recommend you watch this. Its plain, factual and a great Sunday afternoon movie:-)
Do share here all the WWI/II movies you know of. My personal favourite is Schindler's List.
As far as impetus' go, do you need a kick in your ass? I shall gladly oblige unless you want the services of freekick specialist David Beckham.
@ Radha
Yes check this one out!
@ Fighter Jet
Me too wonders. And I have yet to converse with any German on the topic. I am currently working and interacting with some Germans and I just cant help being reminded of their Nazi history. Somewhere deep down a shriek says, 'Are these the descendents of those??!!'
