Movie information in first post provided by The Movie Database
I am a huge history fan, and one of the most interesting parts of human history for me is WWII. This movie gives a good depiction of a failed attempt to overthrow Adolf Hitler by his own generals. The plan itself is actually well thought out, but they had issues in executing it. Tom Cruise did a wonderful job here, truly wonderful.
 
Somehow, this slipped under my radar. Perhaps, because it's not available in my region on streaming services.

I will put this on my watchlist and give it a run, even if I have to rent it.

I love WWI and WWII (Europe and Pacific) movies and series (like Band of Brothers/The Pacific, for example), especially if they're based on true stories.
 
Yeah, and it is based on true story which makes it even better. Of course, in reality they didn't push as much as they did in the movie but the idea remains the same.

It has to be Hollywooded up to make for an entertaining watch though!
