Don't fight terrorism. It will miraculously go away if you leave it alone when it breaths our air and culture

Gee you'd have thought that would have worked in France after the Nazis occupied it,I mean Germans are efficiency control freaks, the French unions take coffee breaks during their coffee breaks......

I guess Spielberg would have shot the French resistance huh.....but wasn't like Schindler a hero? Steven is confused methinks....I wonder is Steven a Zionist or anti Zionist, how come Israelis cture hasn't driven the Palestinians away

Tom Cruise is a one note wonder, he can only play variations of the same character, which is his own perception of himself, however fortunate for him in Hollywood as long as you play the right note and you got a pretty face, you can be a huge star [Mel Gibson is a far better actor than he even allows himself, once he came to Hollywood most of his characters are just variations of himself, he did some superior work I would argue in his Australian indie days, however he now gets his creative kick from directing and producing movies and how]

the only movie role he ever did that surprised me was Lestat in Interview with a Vampire, because I was with Anne Rice, who wanted Gary Oldman to play Lestat, and frankly I doubt he would have been interested, having already played Dracula, in a hokey mess courtesy of Francis Ford Coppola, he played it better than I would have guessed....

I watched Top Gun 20 times for Val Kilmer, he's a more nuanced actor and I thought much better looking at the time, and Anthony Daniels did a great job as the sidekick....

This movie is actually much more pro "resistance" than the 1950s version which portrayed resistance as totally worthless. Don't listen to the naysayers. The movie is well worth watching.
