BRAD PITT LASHES OUT AT TOM CRUISE MOVIE

Brad Pitt

Superstar Brad Pitt is hitting out against Tom Cruise for the title of best World War II movie, calling the Hollywood actor's recent film "Valkyrie" "ridiculous." Award winning Brad, teamed up with famed director Quentin Tarantino for "Inglourious Basterds," which was released less than a year after Cruise's 2008 drama about a plot to kill Nazi leader Adolf Hitler. However, Brad is insisting his portrayal of Nazi hunter Aldo Raine in Tarantino's violent film is no comparison to Cruise's character. He tells German magazine Stern, "The second World War could still deliver more stories and films, but I believe that Quentin put a cover on that pot. With 'Basterds,' everything that can be said to this genre has been said. The film destroys every symbol. The work is done, end of story ... ('Valkyrie') was a ridiculous movie."
