Valkyrie is an awesome, action war drama that puts to light one of the most ambitious coups during the reign of the Nazis during the second World War. Though a flawed film, Valkyrie is a suspenseful film and is very well acted. People seem to give this film bad press because of Tom Cruise's involvement in the project. He gives performance and this is one of his best since The Last Samurai. However many film goers judge Cruise's casting due…

A superb piece of film-making from Bryan Singer and starring Tom Cruise, Bill Nighy, Terence Stamp and even Eddie Izzard.
The story of Operation: Valkyire was the assassination attempt against Adolph Hitler, bringing down the Nazi party from the inside and saving Europe from 'Hitler's Germany'. Led by Colonel Von Staffenbury (Cruise) and a band of trusted fellow miliraty powers, the story is as gripping as it is thrilling as the operation is planned, plotted and executed.

It still bothers me when there is one actor, usually the lead, that has a different accent than anyone else. If you are substituting German accents for British ones (which I'm ok with), make it consistent. I liked that the film started off in German then switched (nicely, in fact).
Either have an all American Cast or an all British Cast is all I'm asking. -
This a soft 4/5 but it's still pretty good. I don't know why people didn't like this one because it's not that bad. There were parts I really liked and it was just a flat out entertaining movie. It's one of the better Hollywood WW2 dramas out there.

Surprisingly suspenseful, given we already know the outcome, this WWII thriller has a strong performance from Cruise and a fine supporting cast of mostly British thesps

O filme é bom só não consigo entender porque todo o exército alemão fala inglês.

Suspense to the max!
Bryan Singer does a marvelous job delivering an edge of your seat thrill ride from 10 minutes in until the final moments of the film. Very well paced. The film lacks characters really-any type of depth to them would have been nice. Cruise's character had the most potential with the family aspect but the film doesn't really spend a single moment on anything like that-it's all the plot. Kill Hitler-take back the Government. That's it-as simple…

This had so much potential for greatness yet it fell juuuuust short.
I blame it on Tom Cruise's American accent and lackluster performance.
He tried... and failed.This was a genuinely enjoyable film, but the constant thought of "this could be so much better!" distracted me. Three stars for effort. And maybe another half, too.

An amazing cast and a well made movie.
