On the wings of Valkyries


Went to a sneak preview of Valkyrie last night. The Brian Singer
directed piece was great and suspenseful making it overall enjoyable.
Obviously we know the end of the movie (as in the case of all bio pictures)
but it was still riveting, with an all-star cast, including Kenneth Branagh,
Tom Wilkinson, General Zod (Terence Stamp) and Eddie Izzard.

The cinematography and story telling is grand. The scenes around the
assassination attempt have you on the edge of your seat.

I thought it was better than Superman and the X-Men movies, but the bar
still sits with The Usual Suspects, which I know is very high indeed.

GRADE: B+
