MI:4, S:H2 and War Horse

Three films in three weeks:
Thanks to a miracle that happens every Wednesday Myself and my fiancé (wish me luck) have been able to view some films of late. Here's my two cents...
Mission Impossible 4:
Something which hasn’t been brought up whilst the films been in the top 10 is the matter of the trailer, the appallingly made trailers that when both watched every single potential cliff hanger is revealed... But never mind; still a great action romp, even if the ending was a bit cheesey...*MISSION ACCOMPLISHED* (Spoiler Alert)
Sherlock Holmes 2:
Great fun, but a Naked Steven Fry (Hello to...) and Shetland Pony steal the show!
War Horse:
My pet hate could not be escaped: No subtitles. I know its a film and shouldn't be taken seriously, extend disbelief and so forth but when a German grand father speaks to his German grand-daughter in English with a German accent; a sigh could not be repressed, but worse still, when German soldiers are merrily in conversation in English with German accents and the German behind them is barking orders in German "Bewegen sich entlang" etc it just sucked me out of the movie and made me think appreciatively of Tarentinos Inglorious *Mild Cough*. On the whole though it did what I expected, heart strings torn at, shock was absorbed and tears even fell a couple of times.
Thanks guys and please wish us both luck as we have less than five months until wedding bells ring out
