“The film just isn’t a thriller at all” said one “Valkyrie” viewer. “It’s a bunch of white guys in Nazi uniforms. It’s too bad. And Tom [Cruise] doesn’t speak with a German accent — though they did add a voiceover of him speaking German to the beginning of the film. Still, it’s as if he could say ‘I complete you’ at any time. This is not his Oscar moment.”I don't know if "too bad" means "it is regrettable that Cruise made such a clunker" or if it means "this movie is worse than bad." What I do know is I'm not going to buy a ticket to find out for myself.

Tank
Apparently, the movie "Valkyrie" may be tanking before the first ticket is sold. The audience reaction in the previews has been rather bad.

I'll go with option C -- BOTH.
Cruise has become increasingly unhinged on the last two years; I know a lot of people won't see his movies just because he's a flippin' whackaloon.
"It’s a bunch of white guys in Nazi uniforms"
Well, who the hell ELSE would be wearing Nazi uniforms?. But of all the actors to hire...
