I am not a Tom Cruise fan at all, but on a whim I decided to rewatch this movie. I was pleasantly surprised by the rewatch.
I remembered that the movie started with a bang and was doing great until Cruise and Blunt got to the farm house then it stalled.
That was not my experience this time around. This was a really fun movie. The production values were top notch, the action was spectacular and the movie did a really good job of sticking to its logic. I also really loved the mech suits. I list this as the best use of a mech suit in a movie with District 9 and Avatar as a close second and third.
Honorable mention to the mech suits in The Matrix when the robots pour into Zion
One thing I did appreciate about the mech suits in the Matrix sequels is how the reload process was illustrated.
That added a high degree of authenticity to how a mech suit would be used in a battle.
