I couldn't have been the only one who, upon first hearing the news that Tom Cruise would be starring in a film about the (failed, obviously) plot to assassinate Hitler, felt more than a frisson of excitement: "Tom Cruise....Hitler....a stroke of pure casting genius!!", was my initial reaction. But alas, it soon transpired than the diminutive, delusional megalomaniac with some dodgy ideas and a mad glint in his eye would not be playing the Führer, but his would-be assassin. Talk about a missed opportunity. Valkyrie is out in cinemas throughout the UK as we speak, but it's probably shit.
