Edge of Tomorrow 2014

Ending could of told the audience more about the future of Cage. Great movie overall. Great acting by Tom Cruise and the storyline is surprisingly well put together for what it is.

the original story is a manga called "All You Need Is Kill" written and drawn by the same 2 mangakas who wrote and drawn "death note"

This is one of the best action films of the last years, fantastic story, excellent plot and a very good Emily Blunt. Tom Cruise was even decent on this one. Very creative and extremely cool movie

Name me a working movie star as watchable as Tom Cruise...? See. He's a dying breed. Every film he does is somewhere in the 6.5 to 8.5 out of 10 range. He doesn't make bad films. There's always something worthwhile in each of them.

So to Edge of Tomorrow. His best film of the last 15 years with the exception of the latest Mission Impossible...

His partnership with MacQuarrie is great and thankfully they're knocking movies out at a fairly regular pace these days.

I thoroughly enjoyed this film. It's a tough ask to keep showing the same events over and over. With a less competent actor, this would have been a problem. For Cruise, it's manna from heaven.

If there's such a thing as an overlooked Tom Cruise movie, this might be it. Fix that. Go watch it. It's very good.

Hollywood finally paid off with this hell of blockbuster. It's so smart, amusing and it's so attractively crafted that goes beyond just being an entertaining movie and becomes a unforgettable piece of sci-fi.

I make it short:
What a great movie. It was funny, new, stylish and very entertaining.
I was hyped and i was not disappointed.

8/10

I have went from liking this movie to loving it over the years...How can you go wrong with Tom Cruise in a weaponized Endoskeleton vs End of Humanity Alien Invasion

loading replies

10 years have passed, and it’s also good! The watchability is simply excellent. In addition to good science fiction, it’s like watching all the main blockbusters about the war at once. There’s room for jokes and Murray’s vibe. And about the ending? After all, the movie is based on, and differs from the original, like “The Last Samurai” from Kurosawa’s films. Whatever is neither good nor bad, just different and self-sufficient. I haven’t leafed through the manga, but the light novel has been published. Read it, it’s tougher and more honest. Like another facet

There is a few clichés involved in the whole loop sci-fi thing. But the movie manages to be okay and entertaining. Not a movie to see more than one time, though.

loading replies

Like most people, I assumed this would be bad because of the marketing. But after hearing only positive reviews I decided to give it a go and it was goddamn awesome.
A really fantastic movie.

It’s like a videogame where you keep dying over and over again until you eventually complete each level and finish the story

loading replies

On your feet, maggot! The idea of resetting time is being fully explored and adds to the action – and who doesn’t like to see Tom Cruise die over and over again?

9/10

Nice movie. I recommend it

This kinda fell off near the end, I was enjoying it aswell and then I got really bored

Can't believe I watched a Tom Cruise movie just because of Emily Blunt.

Great plot,really good directing and some brilliant acting skills.Action was well made and i think its one of the very best sci-fi movies you shouldnt miss this one.

loading replies

I love this movie so much. One of my favorite Tom Cruise flicks. I prefer to call it Live. Die. Repeat. like they do on video because that is a way better title than Edge of Tomorrow. What a snooze of a title. Anyway, this movie is hilarious, bad ass, thought provoking and action packed. Emily Blunt is amazing, too. Love this movie.

This is groundhog day with stunning action scenes and a good Story. Surprised it was that good.

Groundhog Day in an action movie.

This is exactly what it is. And, it is alot better than I expected it to be.

Surprisingly good.
I missed the motivation of the aliens a bit, but doesn't really matter.

loading replies

Groundhogs Day meets Sci-Fi + Military + Aliens. All in all, awesome movie.

loading replies

There are bad scifi movies and good ones. I have to say this one was TOTALY NINJA!

I was trilled all the way, and not to repeat other reviewers that were first i have to just say:
Great plot, well directed (time "travel" can be tricky for confusion or boredom of audience).
Very well casted/played/character written: i think by the end i loved every one in the movie.

For me, one of the best scifi movies ever.

loading replies

Hold your breath!

Cruise is in top form and IMO, only he could deliver a movie role as played in Edge of Tomorrow.

Great entertainment all around, a different take on the story telling/writing for this type of Sci-Fi genre (unique even), it's well paced and executes the styling/special effects flawlessly.

The standout star of the movie, again IMO, is Bill Paxton. Man, is he in tip-top character or what?! Good stuff. :)

I really loved the humor that was appropriate for the situation(s) at hand, it does not take away from the seriousness of the story telling, not one bit.

I will go to see a second time in the next week or so. 9/10 and back again.

loading replies

Really good movie, without any expectations I was pleasently surprised.
I'm not the biggest fan of Tom Cruise, but he did a great job this time.
Keeping up the tempo throughout the whole movie, with tasteful inputs of comedy.

Nice! ;)

What a great movie, Time travel approached like any other in ages. Tom Cruise wasn't disappointing, what I found surprising haha, and Emily Blunt rocking as an actriss. Great plot, scenes, and performance.
Whatch It ;)

Tom Cruise has made some really good movies over the past decade. "Minority Report", "War of the Worlds", "Jack Reacher", "Oblivion"...the guy is taking chances on mostly original stuff...BIG, original stuff.

"Edge of Tomorrow" has some very exciting combat scenes, and even though many are repeated, different angles and camera perspectives keep them fresh. The movie progresses much like a video game. Cruise and Emily Blunt steadily progress through "levels" of battle and even make their way to "boss" level. But this is not a tired movie based on some popular video game of the past. This is a fresh take that feels like there should be a video game based on it.

Not only are Cruise and Blunt excellent in the film, Bill Paxton is awesome as the sharp-tongued, quick-witted Master Sergeant Farrell.

More people need to check out non-sequel, non-prequel, non-superhero movies like this one. It will be a damned shame if this film falls quietly by the wayside.

Entertaining action flick with only a mediocre ending. If the ending was better I think this could have been a really great movie. As it is, it's just a solid effort, but nothing more IMHO.

Yet another in the rather long line of annual Tom Cruise sci-fi blockbuster movies... and to be honest, it's better that last years 'Oblivion'... Which isn't really as much of a compliment as you might think.

The plot is just rehashed from loads of other sci-fi movies and if you think about it, the entire pacing of the movie is virtually identical to 'Groundhog Day'... But without the comedy or superb performances.

Emily Blunt who i highly rate as an actress, and was in one of my fave movies in recent years (The Adjustment Bureau) simply phones in her performance here... and her's is one of the better performances.

Not a single character has depth, the plot is entirely predictable and the ending scene rather contrived.

Maybe I expect too much from my sci-fi movies these days... but after being spoilt by great films such as the aforementioned Adjustment Bureau, Moon, Source Code and Inception and thrilled by the likes of the Marvel cinematic offerings... Movies like this just cannot compete with them.

It's like when True Lies was released back in the early 90's... a Schwarzenegger action movie that surpassed what we had come to expect from secret agent films... and that many film buffs and critics (myself included) were saying could very well end the James Bond franchise (and nearly did as they got ever more ridiculous until Daniel Craig stepped into the role).

The dialogue is rather slow and painful in places... But the cinematics and visual effects are pretty decent, although there are several scenes where you see them running in the armoured suits and can tell they're on hoists because their movements don't quite match with what you are seeing.

So whilst this movie is better than Oblivion... it's still a pretty poor movie that whilst offering some enjoyment for the two hrs or so it lasts... offers no repeat viewing value at all.

Hence my score of just 5. Maybe I'm just not a fan of Tom Cruise, maybe I find him just a little bit creepy and maybe I wish he use his skills as an actor in meatier roles.

It's not that I simply like my Sci-Fi to be a littler more cerebral, I love action fests, it's actually more to with the fact that I enjoy character development and good dialogue at the same time. Sadly it's hard to find movies that tick all the boxes. On one had you have the films mentioned already, this falls somewhere in the middle whilst the Transformers movies are somewhere at the bottom of the pile because they cannot tick ANY of the boxes.

I enjoyed it a lot more on the first watch because not knowing how the same day plays out over and over was intense and exciting. The vfx, sfx, and design was mind blowingly beautiful. The score and soundtrack was electrifying. Casting was great, but Emily Blunt stole the show. The story felt like a Call Of Duty/Battlefield type of game. I really don't understand why this isn't a video game. It has every box ticked. The stunts went wild, it's clear where the $175 million went. Well made and well done.

loading replies

I love the premise of the time loop, the reason behind the powers of the MC makes sense, the design of the aliens is dope and the radical change of Cage's character is amazing

loading replies

The repetitive-ness gets tiring at one point (even though they tried to get clever with it), that you wish the plot would just move forward but it's still a fun action movie without being dumb.
And by the way, it doesn't really need a sequel. Even gets wrapped up nicely. We don't need to see them in a relationship.

loading replies

If you suspend a little disbelief and don't ask too many questions, this is a very rewarding action movie. Good cast, decent premise, and a quality ending - I had a good time watching it.

The american version of Re:Zero & Summertime Render anime. it's good, but they didn't tell the audience the ending didn't tell the future of Cage. did he awaken new power, or just reset back to day 1? or it's just a continuation after the last battle? I'm not sure.

Even without the sci-fi aspect, it's still one of the most solid action movies I've ever seen. Each character is memorable, the moments of levity are done well and placed at the right moments, and the character moments between the action make this movie come alive.

Plus, I'm a sucker for time-loop movies, and this one did a great job bringing the "Groundhog Day" gimmick into a sci-fi-war movie.

The first half is great. The second half is just ok. Still it is one of the coolest sci-fi movies in a while with a great time loop concept. Hopefully there is a sequel.

loading replies

This dash of cinematic junk food boasts a crisp, chocolatey effects extravaganza for an outer shell and a wash of sticky, creamy sci-fi curiosity at its core. The concept is tricky but fascinating, a bit stretched but not so far that it completely shatters the illusion. It's basically Groundhog Day meets Independence Day, with Tom Cruise wearing a great big suit of mechanized armor as its showpiece. Go into battle, kill some aliens, meet a grisly demise, respawn at the checkpoint and try it all over again; that's basically the plot.

It's best when Cruise is relegated to mere rapid-fire cannon fodder, trying like hell to make the most of his chances and failing miserably. The ride gets markedly less entertaining, and more humdrum, as it slides into sentimentality and finality. The ending is a real whiff, too, and undoubtedly colors my memory of the better bits that I'd enjoyed earlier. It smacks of a last-minute rewrite, something that's utterly at-odds with the dashes of smart, dark material that had spiced things earlier in the ride. It wants to be flashy and ballsy, but instead it's been tamed and neutered.

yea, not the hugest fan of Tom, but just like the Matrix, you have a great sci-fi script, money to spend on it and a good actor I tend to forget who the hero is in reality and view them as character. and that's what makes a good actor and a great film. Really great stuff. Had no expectations, but it was a great watch. No spoiler's here you should watch it.

So, Tom Cruise's life is in live-die-live repeat mode and he's getting better every time he's life is getting re-started. His objective is to save his lady without sacrificing everybody else and equally importantly to save the world as well.
