I saw EDGE OF TOMORROW!! That's right, I got to see Tom Cruise's new epic sci-fi summer flick and let me just tell you right now, it doesn't disappoint! The movie stars Tom Cruise as an Army Major who gets roped into participating in a live battle against an alien force as a PR stunt. Things quickly go south when his squad is ambushed and through a series of uncommon events, Cruise's character finds himself with the power to restart the day whenever he's killed. It's like mixing the movies Saving Private Ryan, Starship Troopers and Aliens with Groundhog Day which is pretty much like playing the game Halo on Legendary mode. Everything about this movie is a treat! The special effects are jaw dropping, the story is engrossing and the cast, headed by Cruise and Emily Blunt, puts forth a solid effort with especially entertaining work done by Bill "Game over, man" Paxton and Brendan Gleeson. This movie is bound to be the action movie event of the summer and it earns every bit of it's high praise. If you have the chance to see it in IMAX take it into consideration, if not, at least see it in a theater because it's bigger than big and more action packed than anything I've seen in years. Edge of Tomorrow machine guns it's way into a perfect 5...out of 5.
