Edge of Tomorrow is really awesome! It's easily the best movie of the summer so far and you need to see it. An unlikely mix of Groundhog Day, Black Hawk Down, and Aliens, this is one of the most original sci-fi films of the past decade and makes Tom Cruise's previous film Oblivion, feel like a teaser trailer for this.
The mimics are the coolest aliens since...well, Aliens. The premise is equal parts smart, bizarre, and trippy, all while undermining the cliches of the sci-fi action genre. And let's not forget the actors, especially Cruise and Emily Blunt; you won't see a better action team in any film this year.
Strong characters, a great story, and stellar effects make Edge of Tomorrow a near perfect masterpiece. Director Doug Liman has more than redeemed himself for Jumper, making this the best film he's made since The Bourne Identity.
There is a good bit of humor in the movie and the performances of Cruise and Blunt are spot on, with good supporting work from Bill Paxton, who plays a very hard-headed sergeant.
Though lacking the overall conceptual sophistication of modern time-warping classics such as Looper and Inception, Edge of Tomorrow is still more than capable of applying an unshakable grip upon the viewer from start to finish.
From watching this movie, I would rate this movie 9/10! I really enjoyed every moment of it and would recommend you all to watch it.
