Worthy of a Sigh

Rating: 3/10 (27 July 2013)

Jack, Tom Cruise, is a survivor of some future war which left earth mostly uninhabitable, due to radiation, leaving what was left of the human race to go live on one of Saturn's moon's. He and his partner are an efficient team chosen to stay back on earth for special duties such as drone maintenance. As Jack's retirement approaches, where he will be relieved of his duties and get to join the rest of humanity on Titan, he can't help but begin to question his dreams.
From there on, Oblivion tries to pull of a series of twists, none of which we haven't seen before. Instead of being the original, new sci-fi epic Oblivion promises to be, it just steals ideas from Total Recall, Moon and The Matrix without being anywhere close to as good as those films were.
Oblivion starts off with promise in the pacing and visuals but when Morgan Freeman shows up as a Morpheus character, it just goes from one clique to the next with a finale worthy of a sigh.
