Valkyrie

So I saw Valkyrie on Sat. night. It was pretty good. The most distracting thing was probably the fact that you had to keep reminding yourself that these American & British actors were all actually Germans. It got kind of hard to keep that straight. It really took a long time to get interesting, and it wasn't as well directed as I would have hoped. On the plus side, Hitler was a really good actor, and it actually made it more exciting knowing they were going to fail.

7/10

What makes me so angry is how so many people boycotted this movie because Tom Cruise is in it. Not because he's a bad actor, which I don't even think he is, but because he's a scientologist. These people that claim to promote religious freedom continue to bash on scientologists! I am not a scientologist (Jewish, actually) and never will be, but I don't see why scientology is suddenly the religion everyones allowed to pick on. If I said, "Watch out for him, he's a Muslim," I'd be attacked for being racist. But people are allowed to say, in all seriousness "Don't trust anything he says, he's a scientologist," and nobody even gets mad. It just doesn't make sense.
