Nothing special....almost predictable

Rating: 4/10 (9 August 2013)

This is 2013....and already we have seen tons of Sci-Fi ....aliens in our planet...zombies here....zombies in mars...hi-tech (nearly illogical) gadgets,post nuclear holocaust, machines gone rouge and Cloning....I wont say there are no good sci-fi but common how long.. since early 70's Science fictions are more or less permutation and combinations of the elements mentioned (more or less).... Certainly it has become lot more tough to shock us with these stuff now-a-days.Yet if you try it out the easiest formula is put some bankable names( tom cruise & Morgan Freeman in this case)....do a good sound comp and no compromise with Graphics then put all the elements together to make a SCI-FI MILKSHAKE. Oblivion seemed nothing more than that...good visualization and sound effects and that's all..Up-to first thirty minutes one can hardly fathom actually what is going on because indeed NOTHING SEEMS TO GO ON... all the things seems to be stuck in slow-mo,not the starting i expected.Actions sequences were nothing new and lacked creativity....there is really little room for actual ACTING...characters seemed shallow and obviously both stars of the movie could have been utilized in lot more better way...However not bad as a TIME PASS movie...but if u expect something intense like Mission Impossible or Knight and Day (posters and covers were indeed misleading )then you will be disappointed
