It wasn't perfect, BUT it was entertaining and ALOT better than what has been coming out the last couple years. I would say for a reference "A Quiet Place" was perfection and this was entertaining, so still a win.

I had so much hope and anticipation that this movie was going to be at least "decent" given the solid marketing budget displayed. From the onset, the movie offers a promising narrative that by the 20-minute mark has caught fire and began a terminal free-fall towards the ground. I won't rehash what others have echoed as to the gaping plot-holes and the like; I will add though that Amazon missed an opportunity here. The director/producers it seems tried to meld together Frequency (2000) with the plotline of The Day After Tomorrow (2004) and a shade of Starship Troopers (1997) all the while detracting from what made those movies likable. If the plotholes had been somewhat addressed maybe...maybe the movie could have been better. It seems that the writers sat down and said how do we achieve every movie trope we can in one sitting. Beyond a few comedic quips by ancillary characters, the movie is devoid of relief from what is otherwise a predictable plotline.… Expand

A decent cast can’t save this weak script. This feels like a fan-fiction film. Characters are paper thin and almost every relationship is an emotional cliche.

The parts set in the future were excellent and the last act was a pleasant surprise from where I thought the story would go.

This is also Chris Pratts best movie after Guardians ( I actually prefer this but I think I'll be in the minority).

The cgi effects were excellent and I could rarely tell the creatures were computer generated which kept me in the movie.

After so many streaming blockbuster failures I'm happy one of these attempts turned out to be enjoyable.… Expand

Welcome Back to Stream to Big Screen! This week let's take a trip to the future to fight The Tomorrow War. This Prime Video summer blockbuster was released for streaming this Independence Day weekend. A sci-fi, action, adventure, thrillerWelcome Back to Stream to Big Screen! This week let's take a trip to the future to fight The Tomorrow War. This Prime Video summer blockbuster was released for streaming this Independence Day weekend. A sci-fi, action, adventure, thriller what more could a viewer ask for on a holiday weekend. The Tomorrow War depicts a future world in which a group of time-traveling soldiers arrive and ask for help to fight a global war against a deadly alien species. Among those recruited is high school teacher and family man, Dan Forester (Chris Pratt). Determined to save the world for his young daughter, Dan teams up with a brilliant scientist (Yvonne Strahovski) and a rag tag crew to rid the world of these aliens. Let's see if it's worth watching.

The Tomorrow War has so much potential. I mean just check out the trailer below. It had some creative elements, but then the filmmakers decided to make it as predictable and cliched at every possible moment you'd expect. I mean this is like the greatest mish mosh of summer blockbuster movies I've ever seen. If you like any of the movies I'm about to say, you will absolutely like or be entertained by The Tomorrow War. Here we go: this movie was concocted in a lab with remnants of Independence Day, World War Z, Edge of Tomorrow with a little mix of Prometheus. I mean that's a pretty good line-up... right?! Yeah, but not when you know the everything before they happen. For what it's worth, the story is sincere at times, but then again, it's the same story we've seen. "I gotta save my daughter..." *boo hoo!* "Oh wow these aliens are dangerous... let's go do some reckless stuff that doesn't make sense to stop them." Shock and awe!

Anyway, Chris Pratt is typically a solid actor, but here he was just Pratt from everything else. He's part Peter Quill, Grady from Jurassic World and shoot even Emmett Brickowski (just kidding but that made me chuckle). The rest of the cast is ok at best but shout out to J. K. and him bringing extra swag to this flick. They didn't use him that much but his scenes were worth it. Either way, just like the characters falling in the movie this movie is chalk full of plot holes. Some holes are so big you get Tenet-brain. You ask, "what's Tenet-brain, S2S?" Tenet-brain, formerly Inception-brain, is when you really start to think about what happens in the movie the movie just gives you a headache and or comes apart at the seams. It's best to go into a potential Tenet-brain movie with an open and empty mind. Let the movie just entertain you and not inform you. As this movie runs for 2 hours and 15 minutes, they try to inform you a lot and you have to duck and dodge all of the plot holes that might make you think. The movie feels like 4 different movies in one and while that may seem good... it just feels so long.

SUPER LONG STORY short, The Tomorrow War is a solid movie that was just too protracted. Led by Chris Pratt as a less annoying Peter Quill, the movie is entertaining and family friendly with the action and thrills many like to watch. The Tomorrow War absolutely could've come to the theaters and done well as a long standing matinee flick but it's probably better suited as a streaming flick on Amazon Prime with a bowl of popcorn.… Expand

The plot of director Chris McKay's overlong saga of a man vs. alien war fought across time is riddled with more holes than a gun range target. Even the special effects, which should be the biggest asset in a production like this, leave much to be desired, frequently going on far too long and bringing new meaning to the term "silly." Had the movie more earnestly embraced the campiness factor on which it so often borders (a la "Starship Troopers" (1997)), this probably would have been a much better picture, not to mention a lot more fun. To its credit, the film's closing sequence helps to make up for much of what preceded it, but, by then, it's too little too late. And, as for the performances, all I can say is that cast members like Chris Pratt and J.K. Simmons really must have needed the money to become associated with a project as awful as this. Thankfully, the credits eventually do roll, but not until I've surrendered 2:20 of my life that I'll never get back.… Expand

But that's more originality then you will get from most Hollywood movies. The movies biggest strength is the creatures and the surprising relationship Pratt has with a female military's officer once gets to the future. Those scenes together were really powerful. Really the only thing stopping the movie from being a 10 are some minor flaws and nitpicks.… Expand

While it starts off visually appealing, those slick graphics quickly give way to bog standard concrete cooridors, warehouses and refinery sets. Much as you would expect from middle of the road sci fi.

The premise is exactly what you would expect. A war in the future, so time travel hyjinx and paradoxes ensue.

Nothing here is particularly wonderful. It just succeeds on being average and not offensively so.

One of the pros this film has is it has one of the most clearly defined 3 act setup as any film in recent memory.

Just dont let the solid performances from the cast or the early slick graphics or the later huge cgi esplosun set pieces deceive you. This is very predictable, by the numbers affair. Its reasonably watchable. I know I have wasted time on far FAR worse without half the nominal payoff this film provides. Just watch it and then just as quickly forget about it. You probably will never think of this again after watching it as long as you live, but it will mostly keep your attention for its run time. 5/10. Firm… Expand

I thought that the CGI was very obvious and stuck out like a sore thumb, the physics and lighting was off so it was obvious the CG aliens were not actually there in the environment so that took away any tension or threat for me. The aliens were shouty with pointy teeth but not menacing at all. JD Simmons is brilliant, and steals the show in every scene he is in, but otherwise I found it quite underwhelming, especially for the money that must have been spent on it. No wonder it missed the cinema and went straight to streaming, I think it would have been a flop.… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This is a gigantic abomination of foolish plot, bad screen writing, poor character development, lazy acting, uninspiring action scenes, and a thousand middle fingers to logic and physics.

I don't know where to start, below are just the tip of the iceberg:

1. Giving automatic weapons to a bunch of untrained frightened civilians then sending them to an unknown (to them) battlefield facing enemy that wiped out future professional military forces. What a brilliant idea! I am sure they know how to aim and shoot within days of training.
2. Releasing the safety on guns before the jump. Super! I am sure none of them will accidentally pull the trigger and shoot guys in the front since none of them are nervous or physically uncomfortable during the jump.
3. Falling from the sky into a swimming pool on top of a building will definitely save your life. At the beginning of the movie, Dan fell about 10-12 secs before reaching the pool, that's about 500-700 meters of free fall. They just fell about 500 -700 meters into a pool of water about 1-2 meters deep at the speed of around 90/s, no big deal!
4. Someone fell on top of him too, piece of cake!
5. And someone else fell on the ground instead of the pool, looks painful but certainly not dead, because they were still talking.
6. We finally see the monsters. These things shoot spikes from their tails and cannot fly, but they wiped out the human race who has tanks and fighter jets. Sure, why not? Human suck.
7. And these monsters run super slow, couldn't even catch up with the fat dude.
8. Where did those Humvees come from? Never mind, forget it.
9. Monsters like to stop and roar when they almost catch up with people.
10. In the future, ampoules in the bio labs are made with bullet-proof glasses because you never know when there will be a danger-close explosion around.
11. If you want Dan to stay in the helo, why bringing him along at the first place?
12. These monsters can be killed by .50 cal or get ran over by a Humvee but they wiped human from the earth, because human suck.
13. The queen understood that human found the effective toxin so she called for help, or she happened to wake up and called for help. Either way, good timing.
14. I understand you need to bring the toxin back to the past so you don't want to use it on the queen in present. But couldn't you just kill the queen with, you know, a grenade, or a bazooka, or a flamethrower, or .50 cal or whatever. For a lab to hold this very dangerous creature, you really don't have a contingency plan.
15. They kept saying these creatures are smart. If these monsters know how to use the time travel device, or at least destroy it to prevent Dan from jumping back, I will give this movie a 5-star.
16. Now I look back to all missions in the future: retrieving things/people from the lab, capturing the queen, making the toxin, sending it back to the past, -- none of these missions really need people from the past, or Dan. Couldn't the future people just do all these then travel back to the past to deliver the toxin?
17. That glass veil Dan was holding survived all the explosions, jump and fall.
18. Wife figured out what the entire future generation of scientists couldn't -- monsters didn't land in 2048, they were already here.
19. Red shirt dude has a claw of the FIRST monster ever killed. So the future human never killed a monster until they recruited some badass civilians from the past? Yep, future human suck and deserve extinction.
20. They analyzed the claw of the first monster ever kill and made a plot-twisting finding. I guess the future human never thought of analyzing the monster bodies.
21. If you have some volcano questions, go ask a school kid. Definitely not some college professors or scientist or researchers. I guess they were all drafted and died in the future.
22. The whole world united together and sent their military to the future to fight a war and save humanity. But they couldn't convince Russia to at least take a look at one of their own glaciers.
23. Even if that big-ass C130 can make it to Russia undetected, how did they land?
24. A few C-4 made such a huge explosion and flames indicating that those space-traveling aliens were still using fossil fuel.
25. Every second of the final fight.

You must disconnect your brain to be able to enjoy this movie, which you can, there's plenty of action sequences to do that with half-decent CGI.

I understand logic isn't your best friend when trying to enjoy science fiction movies BUT things that we can relate to in our own time and the real world should be grounded in reality to make things reasonable. You want me to believe that a Director of Research on Earth and Atmospheric Sciences at GeorgiaTech, clearly one of the top minds in his field in the entire world goes to a school kid for geology answers!?!? You are just doing slapstick comedy at that point. Don't worry, there's non-stop ridiculous writing and acting in this from start to finish.

The film deserves 0/10, but I'll give it 2 points for Strahovski (as a fan of Chuck and Handmaid's Tale but her acting in this film is pretty bad) and Pratt (the director clearly wanted some of his Starlord performance, the best I can say is that Pratt isn't terrible for some parts of the film).… Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I love a good alien movie, and this is one of the best. The aliens are scary and hard to kill, and the woman in charge of saving the world is Yvonne Strahovski, a brilliant scientist with mad military skills is as comfortable in a lab as she is wielding dropping from a helicopter into a nest with a hostile alien. It's so worth a watch for sure.… Expand

Alright, let's break it down.

You send conscripted, untrained civilians to the front lines of a war, mostly urban and with an unconventional enemy and expect them to save you? You don't even develop a videogame you could sell to trainAlright, let's break it down.

You send conscripted, untrained civilians to the front lines of a war, mostly urban and with an unconventional enemy and expect them to save you?

You don't even develop a videogame you could sell to train BILLIONS of people at the same time so they could get the basics on how to fight that enemy?

And after decades, even with that time advantage to prepare during peacetime in the past and the whole world's resource at their disposal they haven't developed effective weapons to deal with their armored body?

Did the writers have any ideas how fast killing weapons can evolve? It's adapt or die. Anyone who studied war history or knows at least the basics knows this.

I'm not even military, yet I'm cringing how completely inept at suspending disbelief this script is.

At least other future alien wars movies had evolved their weapons to fight aliens and had at least half-useful training grounds. It was at least somewhat believable.

But this... It's an insult to people's intelligence.

And don't even mention the "capture" sequence... No tranq darts, no tazers, no nothing, just ropes... You'll shake your head so hard you'll get brain damage, and maybe then you'll enjoy the rest?

The critic reviews much more closely resemble the real ratings than the user score, which is baffling. So I'm gonna have to rebalance the user score a bit toward the saner side with a big fat ZERO.

It's more like a 3-4 if you completely disconnect your brain tho. If that's your thing, you'll have fun. Otherwise, HARD PASS, don't bother.… Expand

Started off interestingly enough and had potential, but the ending was just stupid.

Solid movie. The fact that critics have reviewed Fast 9 better than this is ridiculous and shows a lack of integrity. This is a perfect sci Fi adventure with great pacing and an over the top sci Fi story. Think a better done independence day.Solid movie.
