Tom Cruise delivers...and how

Rating: 8/10 (22 April 2013)

Have already seen this twice in theater. The major strong point of Oblivion is its cinematography and set designing. Beautiful and as capturing as they get, the visuals keep the audience in awe. Also, this is Tom Cruise's best performance in recent years. The story may not be as rich as they made in olden days, it still manages to keep you engaged in its proceedings and offers enough twists (some actually very good ones) to hold you to it. I particularly found the background score the next best thing after its cinematography. Charged with tense tunes and thrilling energy, it perfectly complements the proceedings. At a runtime of 124 minutes, the length allows the movie to setup its characters and plot at an easy pace and saves Oblivion from a being a rushed up attempt.It's a good watch and a must for all Tom Cruise fans.
