I'm a big fan of Tom Cruise but he just seems miscast in this movie. Maybe it'll turn out to be good but I don't have very high hopes for this, even with Singer directing.
It looks like they've essembled a pretty darn good cast yet it appears that no one even attempted a German accent. Oh well, I guess half of them at least had British accents (the universal "any accent" in American films)

Cruise looks ridiculous, but thumbs up to Singer for casting Jamie Parker in this...I didn't know he was in it till I saw the trailer and the kid is TALENTED. I hope this is a huge break for him, he deserves to be a superstar.

I'm neutral on Cruise. He does his job reflecting light. What gets me is...Where is Irwin Rommel in the credits? Is it gonna be a surprise: "and Kevin Spacey as Irwin Rommel" in the end credits?
Oh. And Terence Stamp = sale for me, regardless.

Uggghh this actually looks pretty bad. How are you going to market this movie to make it a hit? Unless a Nazi movie has Steven Spielberg's name on it, forget it. I see another stinker right up there with Lions For Lambs.
I will call it now as 0-2 under his new UA studios. Cruise is on his downward spiral for bank ability for movies.

What are you talking about? Tom Cruise in a mindless cult is very much a stretch for his character.
