One of the most original sci-fi films I've ever seen.

Rating: 10/10 (28 November 2014)

All You Need Is Kill, Edge of Tomorrow, Live Die Repeat, I really don't care what you call it, bottom line, this movie was absolutely incredible. It's probably one of the most original plots I've ever read, seen, or experienced in any medium and Hiroshi Sakurazaka is genius for coming up with such an incredible story. Even with a great story, movies have been known in the past to not succeed in delivering on the fantastic plot. Luckily, Doug Liman executed the story arc to perfection and Tom Cruise and the stunning Emily Blunt were flawless. These two essentially carry the entire film and display great chemistry in the process. The action sequences are done well and the cinematography is excellent. Honestly, there's not a single flaw in the film, no matter how hard I try to find one. Yes, it is science fiction, not only from an alien perspective but also because the entire film is based on the concept of a time looping paradox, so there is an element of suspended disbelief that is required in order to enjoy the film. That being said, I think this movie did as good a job as any I can recall at staying true to the concept. Overall, this might have been the best film of 2014. Unfortunately the marketing team failed miserably at giving it the exposure it deserved. Additionally, the ending may have confused some who are not well versed in science fiction. Here is a great breakdown of the ending and what I think makes the most sense (the first explanation): http://screenrant.com/edge-of-tomorrow-ending-spoilers-time-travel/2/
