An entertaining and action packed film that was nothing special in it's idea

Rating: 6/10 (2 October 2014)

I loved the alien concept and the fear of the destruction of the planet. Humans vs the invading forces, I will never tire of liking this thing kind of movie. However, come on! Yeah, he dies and wakes up again and again; yeah I get it but really how many times do you have to show that. That seemed to be the case for 95% of the film. It could have been executed a lot better if he'd died less and there had been more of an actual story to get involved in. The concept of defeating the alien mother to destroy all has been done before as well as the idea of waking up again and again to experience the same day. I don't feel 'Edge of tomorrow' brought anything new to the table at all in this relation except some upgraded special effects added into the mix. For me this film was entertaining while relaxing at home but but overall not a particularity great film. I'm happy to have seen it but won't be watching it again anytime soon.......
