I generally enjoyed this and had fun watching it. It generally mixes two different clichés, the Groundhog Day and the alien invasion cliché. But a lot of fun.

Even it is not perfect, I believe they have exceeded the edge of making a sci-fi well-balanced, either from the storyline and action. Really worthing.

The world is ending, millions have died and the people in the movie don't seem fazed by it, I don't get it. I liked Starship troopers because it shows the horrors of war. This movie made it feel like a video game and a joke. Could have been so much better if they made this movie rated R. Still not a bad movie, but I expected a lot more. Just a typical run of the mill sci-fi summer blockbuster.… Expand

Decent movie. Story was a bit of a letdown, support cast wasn't all that good. It has lots of action but considering all the carnage there is surprisingly little blood to be seen.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. The first half-hour of the movie is a fake representation of the following events in it. At last, it reflects a great production, writing and design with a final story that entertains and attaches the viewer to the movie, but the repetitively start with (at the beginning) non-sense creates a temporally confusion that lowers the movie considerably. It is important to mention the great duo made by Cruise and Blunt, they were great at the moment of representing two challenging characters.… Expand

Tom Cruise is really busy these days and after Oblivion here is another Action/Sci-Fi movie Edge of Tomorrow. I like science fiction movies, they give us best of imagination of one person and they also make it real for us to enjoy the show.Tom Cruise is really busy these days and after Oblivion here is another Action/Sci-Fi movie Edge of Tomorrow. I like science fiction movies, they give us best of imagination of one person and they also make it real for us to enjoy the show. But there is one big thing you need to watch for and that is story, it is most important part of every Sci-Fi movie and that is also what lacks in Edge of Tomorrow.

So here is short version of story, in a near future alien race has hit the Earth in an unrelenting assault, unbeatable by any military unit in the world. Major William Cage (Tom Cruise) is an officer who has never seen a day of combat and also didn't think that he will end on first line of battle but while trying to run cowardly from war, ends up in suicide mission. Killed within minutes, Cage now finds himself thrown into a time loop-forcing him to live out same day, fighting and dying again…and again. Each time he wakes up after he dies and try to figure new way to save people, in this battle Special Forces warrior Rita Vrataski (Emily Blunt) joins him. They both try to kill main source of alien energy.

Basically, movie picked up few plots from other movies and implemented in one story, i wont say it bad thing but in movie there is no new things just a bad guy turns good. Actually Emily (Rita) could play alone and movie would still be superb and that is how much Cruise contributed with his role. Don't get me wrong, i am not telling that Cruise's acting was bad, it's just that his role in movie was not necessary. Most of movie i was watching side actors that played awesome, and here i want to pinpoint Master Sergeant Farell (Bill Paxton). Tom also showed his full potential accompanied by humor and smart jokes, although Cage at the beginning of the movie was characterized as conceited and arrogant person, eventually his character progressed and developed to be fully flaged main role.

While watching repeatedly i asked myself, “WTF, how many time will he die like dumbass” but that part where he dies was amusing also in some way. Rita was badass role in this movie and she made me reminiscence back to days of Heavy Metal: F.A.K.K.² game.

Still i must say that movie animations and acting was good, alien creatures where superb animated. Plot could focus more on aliens and story beside repeating days but still is watchable and if you don't have any other option, check movie.… Expand

Engaging

It's like watching your best friend play your favorite video game without giving you a turn.

Solid effects and a decent, if not overly clever, story make it an engaging film but not exceptional.

Before I continue I feel like i should mention that I hate time loop stories so my opinion might be affected by that. However I found this film to be just fine. The story isn't as repetitive as other time loop films. The ways in which our main character dies every time is unique enough to make it especially compelling. The characters are all written pretty well too. Yet this film does have it's fair share of problems. First the reason they give for why the aliens who have ability to control time don't just destroy the world instead giving us a fighting chance makes no sense what so ever. Second our main character can only reset the day by dyeing over and over again which for a normal human would servery damage their psyche yet Cage is perfectly fine after about a hundred times through the loop. The biggest issue is the performance given to us by our leads. They just don't have any compelling personality or chemistry. In conclusion though I have my fair share of problems with this film I still do feel like there is enough here that any sci-fi lover would find enjoyment, however I can't call it a great masterpiece of genre or anything like that.… Expand

Tom Bouse fait ce qu'il peut, c'est-à-dire pas grand-chose (comme d'habitude) mais s'avère (également contre toute attente) très supportable. Heureusement la gracieuse Emily Blunt fait plus que le supporter, elle lui vole la vedette. Sexy en diable et forte, charismatique, opiniâtre, une héroïne comme on les aime, pas comme cette connasse de Tombe Raideure par exemple. Bref, Emily rayonne ! Les effets spéciaux tuent la gueule à l'instar des District 9 et Elysium, c'est donc dire si ça envoit du bois. Malheureusement, hélas, tout cela est très mal filmé tout comme District 9 et Elysium... le montage est déjà perfectible mais c'est surtout la caméra qui bouge dans tous les sens, zoome comme une conne (aussi) et rend l'action trop souvent... illisible. De la meeeerde, ce filmage. Pas tout le temps cela dit, mais presque ! Un divertissement bien mené donc mais aussi... bien gâché malgré un tempo d'enfer du début à la fin.… Expand

Very pathetic ripoff IMHO. Sorry, but Tom as the save-the-day hero is getting really old. Can't movie producers come up with their own ideas anymore?… Expand

Also, for those wondering, the reason she uses a sword (in the book a battle axe) is a hang over from the book that is never explained in the film, although it made much, much more sense in the book. The basic idea was that the only useful rounds for killing the Mimics were so limited, and the number of mimics so many, that a physical weapon that required no reloading and could never jam was more efficient.… Expand

Basically, in an effort to win a war against marauding aliens Tom Cruise has to re-live the same events every day until the required result is achieved. So far so good, and there is a lot to enjoy here especially in the first hour and the last final alien encounter. However, Sci-Fi or not, this is a story that does not stand up to too much close scrutiny as there are more holes in the plot than there are bullets flying through the air. To this end the editing style is at once both the film's saviour and ultimately its downfall. Given the necessary repetition of the story, and to ensure that we are not given the same scene time after time, jump cuts are made to propel events forward. Unfortunately, whilst this device works satisfactorily for most of the time there are also occasions when clarity is sacrificed. This subsequently leads one to question all sorts of things about what has or has not had to happen to get to a particular point in the story. The suspect ending is definitely a casualty of this technique and is maddeningly unsatisfactory. Still, the film is entertaining enough and both the visuals on the battlefield and those depicting a devastated Paris are extremely impressive.… Expand

Edge of Tomorrow is directed by Doug Liman and stars Tom Cruise, Emily Blunt and Bill Paxton. The film revolves around the earth being invaded by deadly aliens and the human race being on the edge of extinction. The aliens are winning the warEdge of Tomorrow is directed by Doug Liman and stars Tom Cruise, Emily Blunt and Bill Paxton. The film revolves around the earth being invaded by deadly aliens and the human race being on the edge of extinction. The aliens are winning the war and we decide to make one last push on the beaches of France in a deadly battle that we lose and everything is lost. One of the things that the film tries to do is defy genre convention. It tries so hard avoiding the obvious cliché that comes with a script like this and it does it so well up until the last act, which is arguably the least satisfying conclusion to a film that I have seen in a long time.

I wasn't originally going to be seeing this film in theatres but after hearing the praise it got from critics I started debating on whether to see this or X-Men but after receiving a free movie ticket I made the obvious choice of seeing Edge of Tomorrow. I mean, you can't turn down a free movie ticket! To make a long story short, I should have gone with X-Men.

On the eve of the landing, Pvt. Bill Cage (Cruise) is sent to the front line and is killed within the first five minutes of battle. This first act is so well made and treated with such respect that the rest of the film just seems underwhelming compared to the thrilling ride of the first half. Before his death, Cage was infected with an alien gene that gave him the ability to relive the same day over and over again giving the movie a lot to work with as it has so much going for it. Unfortunately it could have been so much better. The best part is without a doubt some of the clever plotting that makes the time loop aspect of the film never seem predictable or boring. There was probably not a single moment during the first half that made me want to close my eyes and fall asleep. The second half however is a cheesy, badly paced action cliché, which is a shame.

The acting was terrific, with Tom Cruise doing one of the most demanding roles of his career. Cruise's character was very complex and well thought out and I praise the writers for that. I love the fact that Tom Cruise commits himself to the action so much cause he really wants the audience to have a good time. Emily Blunt was so great in this film and I almost think that she should have been the star of the show with all her terrific action scenes. All of the actors did a really good job with their roles but what's sad is that there is almost no character development and Edge of Tomorrow suffers from that. Although the acting is great I didn't give a dime about any of the supporting characters making the film seem a little bland. Thankfully the first half mostly revolves around Cage so it doesn't hurt the overall experience to much. The cinematography was a hit and miss in this film. Sometimes the picture is just beautiful to look at with cool wide shots that hold the mediocre special effects whilst at other times the film feels like something a four year old with a camcorder could do better. It's annoying and distracts from the overall experience. I thought the soundtrack was all right and suited the film for what it is, a mediocre popcorn flick, filled with action clichés but redeems itself with an interesting main character, a plot that is all right for the most part and some cool battle scenes. If that is something you are looking for than go ahead, Edge of Tomorrow is your thing! However, if you want to see a film with a good consistent story, beautiful images throughout, good solid character development that sinks you right in and a satisfying end conclusion, you should rather go with X-Men: Days of Future Past.… Expand

She lost the power doesn't because she lost her blood, instead, she attained VICTORY in her own fight and this is why she got out of HER repeat. Not only weakening my favorite female in the original fiction, but also weakening the aliens. To those who read the original fiction, this movie is simply a DISASTER. These people got a fantastic plot from the author, but they just ruin it. They want the story, but show no respect to the original characters. I don't know how to describe my feelings. The only reason that I didn't walked out of the cinema in the middle is because...it has nice effects.

Because only she seems to know what is really going on? We meet Tom as Major Cage an advertising officer who is immediately reassigned to fight on the front lines the very next day although he has absolutely no training at all. Why? We have no idea. And from there the plot goes haywire. If you ever saw the great movie Ground Hog Day starring Bill Murray welcome back. For the next half hour without any suspense whatsoever Tom is killed by the funny looking aliens and immediately comes back to life. By the 3rd time you are literally bored out of your mind. About the 6th time when the coward Tom becomes the bored hero Emily enters the film for real and tells him he can't die and only he can save the world against these not so scary aliens. Why they have invaded Earth we have no idea. Well from there the movie is as predictable as you don't need me to tell you what is going to happen. Major Cage knowing he can't die goes from weakling coward to Rambo. Other than the two stars acting there is absolutely zero character development. Tom is actually falling in love with Emily but even that never bears any fruit for the viewer to see. Bottom line is the teenage boys who like continuous shoot em up action movies without any intelligence will love this. Anyone who does not check their brain in at the door will find no redeeming quality whatsoever in this very poor movie. I should have known when I went to the first screening last night at 8 PM. The theater held 300 seats and only 4 of us came to see it. You can choose to believe the bought and paid for critics or listen to real moviegoers in which most of us telling the truth will rate this about a 4. Save your money to wait for free TV.

This is one of the dumbest movies I have ever seen in my entire life. If I am playing a video game and I am stuck and have to play the same part over and over it gets ANNOYING. To the point that either I beat it pretty quick or I quitThis is one of the dumbest movies I have ever seen in my entire life. If I am playing a video game and I am stuck and have to play the same part over and over it gets ANNOYING. To the point that either I beat it pretty quick or I quit playing the game because it ceases to be entertaining, or fun at that point. So if a movie was going to emulate that concept why the heck would I want to watch it.

This movie was so bad I had to fast forward through most of it, and not surprisingly, I was able to "foresee" what was going to happen in almost every scene I fast forwarded through to get to the ending which also so boring, cliche, and happy hollywood predictable. Trying to watch this movie was literally painful to the point that I could not take seeing the same stupid thing repeated agian and I have no idea how dumb much of the population must be to actually think this film was remotely enjoyable.

2/10 Most over-rated film of 2014, and one of the worst films of the last half-decade. Horrible.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. think this movie was overhyped. it was good, but i think the overhyping ruined it for me. i found that emily blunt and tom cruise didnt have much chemistry either... but the plot was amazing. the whole time loop/ ground hog theme always interests me and so this wasnt a complete waste of time. i also liked that it had a happy ending, i hate when movies have a sad ending to make it more “artistic” or more “original.” please, there are ways to make a story original without a sad ending. that said, im sorry to give this a 2, i loved the director’s other movie, the bourne identity, but just was a bit disappointed watching this. it wasnt a waste of time tho, it was enjoyable. just wish other people hadnt hyped up my expectation so much.… Expand
