Title: Entertaining Historical Thriller
Product review: Valkyrie received a lot of negative press before its theatrical release. The film was criticized for a lack of German accents and for Tom Cruise's involvement. I understand that the German accents may have lent some authenticity to the film, but it was the artistic decision of the director not to use them. Valkyrie is a very good movie, and is undeserving of much of the negativity it has received. It is a well paced film filled with some excellent actors. The story is well told and stays true to the historical events. The video quality of the Bluray is excellent. I was surprised by the aspect ratio, as the picture filled my entire widescreen tv with no black bars! The audio is excellent. The documentary on Hitler and Germany is an awesome bonus feature, and is almost 2 hours long. Overall, a very good disc.
