Satisfying Action Sci-Fi Time Travel Comedy

Rating: 8/10 (21 September 2014)

The only spoiler is what the aliens look like.
I liked everything about the movie except the aliens. It was well paced and funny. At the beginning of the movie, you don't see what the aliens look like. They're just called Mimics. It's not until Cage gets to the battle that we first see what the aliens look like. For me it was a let down. They basically looked like the transformers with their bodies made of the same CGI metal scales. They move really fast and have whip-like tentacles. I think the movie would have been better with a more original alien enemy.
Everything else about the movie really fell into place. Again, the pacing was just right so things weren't confusing or boring. There were funny moments and tense moments. All the ingredients come together for a satisfying Action Sci-Fi Time Travel Comedy.
