Did anyone notice that 49 plus 52 equals . . .

Rating: 8/10 (14 May 2013)

. . . 101, as in Dalmatians, about the cutest critter this side of Tom Cruise? So in Tom's INDEPENDENCE DAY-type finale as Jack Harper #49 (his "F$@# you, Sally!" moment), he must have an inkling that Jack #52 is still available to keep Julia #1 from growing lonely in her old age (95 and counting). Like Sarah in the Bible, Julia (at age 90) takes a licking and keeps those baby (babies, with #52 on the scene?) kicking. What's sad is that Andrea Riseborough as Victoria #49 and #52 never seems to get any action. But the Navigators probably have had some say in this, as everything about OBLIVION seems as Scientology-like as BATTLEFIELD EARTH. Amazingly, these two movies both trounced the LEFT BEHIND theatrical release(s?) at the box office, though the denominational audience potential for the latter should be 1,000 times greater, according to the government's fair & balanced counting of members of these respective sects. Makes you think that munching popcorn in a movie theater could invalidate Rapture tickets in the minds of true believers.
