I saw the film yesterday and I really liked it. I also thought that Tom Cruise was great. It looks like I’m a minority of one here.
Mu husband and I saw it tonight and we both agree with you. I was pleasantly surprised by Tom Cruise’s performance, I personally think he is over-rated as an actor and spends most of his movies smiling his way through them. Not this one though!
My friend ( a war history geek) liked it also. His 10 yr old son didn't get up to go, because he didn't want to miss any.
I'll wait for the DVD.
Make that a minority of two. I saw it this afternoon with my wife and we both really enjoyed it. The story was excellent. It had a host of good acting performances (Cruise included) and it drew you in even though the ending was obvious. There are so few movies that even get us into the theatre anymore that are actually worth the price of admission. This was one of them.
Sorry Mr Critic, this was a darn good movie. My gut tells me that if this movie was made by another actor like Clooney or Penn, who was not considered a whack job, that it would be getting rave reviews.
(the showing we went to, 4:15 on Friday afternoon, was almost full by the way)
“It looks like I’m a minority of one here.”
Thanks for the Minority Report.
:o)
It looks good, I’ll go see it this weekend.
Appreciate your input & to those MANY who liked the flick — agree with you!
After seeing any historical movie or one based on a true story I follow up with research.
Did not ping you (sorry) to my thoughts in post 87 above
AND I rarely follow reviews by self righteous Friedman, who has an obvious filter(s) that I do not!
I'm glad to hear that. I'm no fan of Cruise's, but I want to see the film. I look forward to seeing and hearing the story of the great Claus von Stauffenberg. The guy was heroic.
