    What movie did you people see?

    Excuse me.... WHAT MOVIE DID YOU PEOPLE SEE (UNLESS SOME OF YOU JERKS ARE PONTIFICATING WITHOUT ACTUALLY HAVING SEEN IT)?

    My son and I saw this movie today: both of us are history buffs (he's a history major) and we both enjoyed it! The only thing wrong with this movie is the attitude that some of you seem to have towards Tom Cruise.... which means, you are idiots. What you think of him has NOTHING TO DO WITH HOW GOOD A MOVIE THIS IS.

    This is a very well done, interesting and suspenseful movie that actually mainly sticks to the facts of what really happened. That's when you know it's a good one: when you know what happened, and you're still on the edge of your seat and engaged in the movie.

    You people need to rate this movie on its merits, not on how you feel about Mr. Cruise.
