Valkyrie/ Saving Private Ryan

1. I didn't watch all of Valkyrie ,but I have seen it all before. In my own opinion I don't think it's very good. I just don't think Tom Cruise protrays his character acuratlly. However, I think the concept of the plan was well thoguht out, and it just so happend that they caught a string of bad luck that costed them their lives.

2. I really enjoyed watching Saving Private Ryan! I have seen this movie many times ,and I could watch the invasion on Normandy all day. I think the effects,acting,and camera work are all great. I also think it's very accurate when it comes to the beach storming as well.

The reading

I read the packet we got on Wednesday night ,and I must say I was very impressed. This packet kept me entertained ,and I thought it showed great depth about the walks and the terror that happend. I also thought it was nuts with the pile of bodies at the end. All in all cool story ,and i enjoyed it.

Germany is Cocky.

I think that Germans are very cocky. If you look at there past war ways, they always have good ideas ,and that makes them feel like they will never be stopped. Hitler walks around like he owns the world. Now his plans are good ,but they aren't spectacular. When the Germans attack Russia, they have a good idea ,but it doesn't play out the way they want. They were overwhelmed by the Russian army ,and they couldn't last in the Russian climate. They have good leaders,good plans,and a great supply of weapons. However, they just can't ever seem to strike the final blow. To me the Germans have lost to signifigance parts of WW2. The Blitzkreig and the Russian attack. Germany must finish the job, or they'll suffer losing the war, once again.
