Not what you expect......

Rating: 9/10 (3 September 2014)

Think The Matrix, Groundhog Day, Back to The Future, Full Metal Jacket and Inception all rolled into one and you would not be far off. I went into this film with no knowledge or expectations and was pleasantly surprised. Straight from the outset the film engages and you and keeps you on the edge (no pun intended) all the way until the films climax. Clever, intelligent, action packed and brilliantly acted by Tom Cruise. There are even undertones of a comedy in there somewhere as there are some genuinely laugh out loud moments. Not a traditional Sci-Fi flick in any way shape or form, truly original and a nice change from all the usual regurgitated dross that has been hitting our screens over the past few years. Fun, slick, original and comes highly recommended. One of my surprise hits of 2014.
