So, as you would have knew that "Edge Of Tomorrow" is not getting the public support in USA. But, i really don't know the reason for it. After the first trailer, they put out I eventually thought that this is gonna be something new, fresh & interesting. I know we have seen a lot of alien sci-fi movies, but you must have not seen a movie like this. I am saying this because, how many times that you have a seen a movie in which the hero dies in every single scene & yet comes to life in the other. Confused? Yeah, that was my first reaction too, when i heard about that. But, i had to see the movie, for 3 reasons. First, the awesome trailers. Second, this dying thing in every scene & Third, well that would be obvious Tom Cruise & Emily Blunt & when we mix all these reasons, we get "Edge Of Tomorrow". Scintillating.
(Emily Blunt as "Rita Vrataski" & Tom Cruise as "William Cage" in a scene from "Edge Of Tomorrow)
So, the story starts that their are news of alien attacks in different parts of the world, they are called "Mimics". So, "Major William Cage" played by "Tom Cruise", the head of the "US Military Media Relations" tells the world about the Armed "Exoskeletons" called "Jackets" which will be used to kill the mimics & win the war. He is an officer who has never seen a day of combat ever, yet unknowingly he is thrown into the battle field. As he is going towards the battle field with the Jackets on, the ship explodes with an attack from the mimics and they are forced to drop down all the guys in one go, but some of them die in this process. As, Cage enter the battle field he sees chaos, the people are dying, no one is getting forward, they go to an extent & they die. He & the J Squad, are in a bunker & planning how to kill these things, but "Mimics" come from within the land & kills everybody but Cage manages to kill a "Mimic", but because of all the mimic's blood on his body, he dies. But, as he dies, he again comes to life from the very first point he was brought into the military camp & he goes on to see everything again, everytime he is into battle, he dies & again lives the whole day, again. One day, when he gets to know that "Rita Vrataski" played by "Emily Blunt" would die, he just swoops in manages to save her & tells him that he already saw yesterday how you would die. Rita, finds that she is not the only one who has been having such weird "time travel". She tells Cage that it is because of the mimic he killed, he was an alpha & because you killed an "Alpha", "The Omega" which is controlling all these mimics resets the whole day, after you kill an "Alpha" & to stop all these things & Mimics, they have to kill the Omega. For, more you have to see the movie. No spoilers.
The movie works because of it's "Fresh Plot", to date i have not seen a movie in which hero dies about, i don't know, i even lost the count of how many times Tom dies in it, but you see that is the main reason why you would like the movie, it's not that you would love to see "Tom Cruise" dying, but you would love to see what happens after he dies every single time. It is a time loop movie, so you see every time Tom dies, you start fresh from the very first point, you see it many times but it doesn't get annoying or tedious because of the treatment the director has given to those scenes.
The movie was rested upon the shoulders of "Tom Cruise" & "Emily Brunt", two of the very successful actors Hollywood has. "Emily Brunt" is kick-ass, in the metal suit, she looks ravishing, a killing machine with her helicopter blade & she looks just stunningly hot in this movie. Tom Cruise, has done it again, the star may be ageing but he knows what his fans need from him, he is just special in the movie, with great expressions & his superb comic timing, plus, the awesome action scenes he's got in the movie. He is just brilliant.
Director "Doug Liman" has made a film which would be recognized for it's story & it's screenplay. The director, Lima & screenwriters Christopher McQuarrie, Jez Butterworth & John-Henry Butterworth have put down a mind-blowing film, which will surely take your breath away. Special Effects are just mesmerizing. Action Sequences are breath-taking. All in All, "The Summer Blockbuster We Have Been Waiting For"
GO WATCH THIS ONE! IF YOU DON'T HAVE ANY EXPECTATIONS FROM THE MOVIE YOU WOULD COME OUT WITH AN EXPERIENCE OF YOUR LIFE.
