Valkyrie

Last night, making the most of Orange Wednesdays, I went to watch the new Tom Cruise film, Valkyrie. I love history, war esqe sort of films, so Valkyrie was a MUST watch before any other new film out that week!



The film had started, and I was already half way into my ice cream, which I must say, was damn good. The vanilla pods made it!

The first scene of Cruise, in his tent, writing in his personal diary about the war he is fighting, (well, ment to be) for, then hears of a German speaker, which you expect of course. The German Cruise lasted for about 2 minutes, saying pretty much the basic German you would learn in Secondary school. Then.... it suddenly changes to a Tom Cruise speaking full on American English! Not only him, but the so called other NAZI soldiers too!

WHAT THE FU*K????

A German, World War 1 film in English? What ever happened to 'trying' to make you feel that the film was set during WW1?

Overall though, the film was amazing, but the fact it was ALL in English was a BIGGGGGG let down!

HEIL FUHRER!

4 out of 15 attempts to plot Hitler seen, 11 more to go!
