Stylish but unoriginal

Rating: 5/10 (6 November 2015)

Oblivion is a generally well made and entertaining film. The cinematography is very good, the sets, gadgets and special effects are all top notch. The film also features strong performances by Tom Cruise, Andrea Riseborough and Olga Kurylenko.
Unfortunately the plot is a disaster. At times it is incomprehensible, while also managing to blatantly rips off a number of other sci-fi films, in particular The Matrix and Moon while the Scavengers even look like Predator.
The film is good to look at, but brings nothing new and is ultimately a disappointment.
