Yeah like the title says its a World war movie ..... Its tells the story of a German General "Von StauffenBurg" Who was serving under Hitler and tried to assassinate him to save Germany from Nazism ( and according to him total annihilation ) .... This is based on a real life incident ..... Tom Cruise agreed to play the hero's role after coming to realize that the original hero Von Stauffenburg looked very much like Cruise ! ( they almost look like brothers) ..... A very good movie ....... If you are a history buff/WW buff you should def watch it .....

PS : History channel released a complimentary documentary on the story of this movie ....... which was also very good
