Here’s the latest pic of Cruise in this film:

I just cannot understand what’s all the fuzz is about :-o
Hollywood actor is doing historical film. Because it’s hollywood, the film propably won’t have any “history” in it, but lets hope it’s a good, solid, entertaining movie. You never know, and worrying things like this beforehand is, pardon me, wasting your life.
And what difference does it make if actor believes in flower power, baby-jesus, UFOs, democracy, reincarnation or moisturising skin lotions or any of that nonsense? 
Every villain and hero in the history has been, is and will be portrayed many times - sometimes badly, sometimes even more badly.
First germans pretty much sabotage the filming process (casting, locations, etc) and then afterwards they complain that it’s not a good movie – eh, shouln’t the world blame germans then? ;-D

The way I see it is that the film will inspire people to hopefully learn more about this little known piece of WWII. Maybe more people will get interested in WWII and we can see more films.
