Great

Rating: 9/10 (16 July 2014)

What I am about to tell you sounds crazy. But you have to believe me. You see, this isn't the first time I've seen this film. In fact, I've seen it more times than you can count. I know it stars Tom Cruise as Major William Cage, and I know he's sent to the front lines of a French beach invasion to fight the alien invasion. I know Emily Blunt stars as Rita Vrataski, aka The Angel of Verdun, and I remember her saying that what happened to Cage happened to her. I remember seeing Bill Paxton as Master Sergeant Farrell, and he was stealing every scene he was in. In fact, so was Emily Blunt. I remember being blown away by the action sequences, and the opening scene distinctly reminded me of the Omaha Beach scene in "Saving Private Ryan." I also remember being pleasantly surprised at the amount of humor in the film, and how it never felt out of place. I know the first time I saw the ending, it felt odd, but when I woke up, I looked back and realized it couldn't have ended any other way. What's the last thing I remember? Thinking that this was one of the best films of 2014. Time to reset.
