A Fun Flick

Rating: 7/10 (4 November 2017)

Continuing my plan to watch every Tom Cruise movie in order, I come to Edge Of Tomorrow (2014)
Plot In A Paragraph: A soldier (Cruise) fighting aliens gets to relive the same day over and over again, the day restarting every time he dies.
This was my first time watching this. After the awful Oblivion, I dismissed this as another Cruise saves the world movie, which I'd become bored with. For a long time, I actually thought it was called Live. Die. Repeat. As that is how I constantly seen it advertised.
Watching it today, I actually enjoyed it. It was pretty fun and not as repetitive as I feared it would be. Crusie is very good in all versions of his role. Emily Blunt is hot, and in great shape, Bill Paxton gives the type of performance you'd expect as does Brendan Gleason.
Whilst I don't know if I will want to rewatch it, I may enjoy it more second time around, but overall it was a fun 2 hours.
Edge Of Tomorrow grossed $100 million at the domestic Box Office to end 2014 the 33rd highest grossing movies of the year.
The first non franchise movie, with Cruise in a lead role to cross $100 million at the domestic box office since War Of The Worlds, 9 years earlier!!
