This is a thrilling (shootergame like) movie, which can be started, stopped and repeated over and over again. Just as in a real computer shootergame. Literally. Quite thrilling, however ridiculous it may sound at first...
It starts out a bit silly, with Tom Cruise being portrayed as an INexperienced fighter. But after a somewhat weird start it builds up in suspense though. The story: Tom Cruise has to conquer an alien invasion. But other than in "real Life", this time Tom Cruise can repeat the same fight with these aliens over and over again and learn from earlier mistakes he made, just as in a computergame. He becomes a better fighter at every step of the way, but will he be able to conquer the aliens in the end?
Any bad? Well, of course it is a cheap story, targetted at teenage gamers I guess. But the reason why I (as an adult) still award it with 8 stars is because of the great adrenalin rush it gave me. Many computer games might be silly, but they still can get me very excited. Edge of Tommorow has that same kind of quality. Definitely recommended for action fans.
