I actually loved the farmhouse part, it made me so angry. The fate of humanity rests on his shoulders, but all of that is just going to have to wait while he tries to get laid. What a piece of shit this guy is.

That is a really great take on it!
Edge of Tomorrow
Cum for Today
I hate the man, but like the actor.
Many of his movies are actually really well made, even though it's mostly popcorn movies, but that's fine
He is a huge draw so his movies will all be well funded and produced. One thing Scientologist do very well is make billions.
I love Mission Impossible Fallout after watching it in cinema, then it occurred to me that Cruise is a Scientology and I just paid money to give it to them. Since then I just torrent his movies.
Yeah well, again, hate the man, like the actor
This movie was definitely one of those 'wtf this has no right being this good' type movies. I actually enjoyed the hell out of it. Now I feel like I need to go watch it again. Thanks for reminding me that it exists!
Yeah, I have to admit when I watched it when it was released I didn’t enjoy it that much but on rewatch I have changed my mind.
I liked that movie, my favourite reboot of Groundhog's Day thus far
HEHE all it needed was a rusty pickup!!
That is a movie. I like a community with integrity. You're doing good work /c/movies. Keep it up.
Thanks man, I am just doing my part to keep folks engaged.
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.
It's a great movie with a terrible name and bad marketing. Definitely holds up
Also the end credits has a Take That song that doesn’t even vaguely fit the tone of the movie, because cross-promotion synergy I guess?
The book's english title was All you need is kill .
Live Die Repeat was the name the Director wanted to use for the movie.
I don't know why the naming is so... bad
All you need is kill, is getting an anime adaptation.
Which is just going to further confuse people who didn't realize they have already watched Edge of Tomorrow and know the whole story, probably.
There is a lot different for the story in the movie version.
The ending is very different for one.
They made a much happier ending in the movie
I remember being surprised by how good this movie was. I expected it to be some completely generic schlockbuster, but it turned out to have an interesting concept, with fewer tropes than it could have had. I remember liking Tom Cruise's character, too. I thought he was going to be some tough guy G. I. Joetagonist, but he was actually kinda funny and relatable.
I appreciated that at the height of the Thank you For your Service propaganda in the US, Cruise played a character that was honest about wanting to avoid combat.
What made it a better Tom Cruise movie was that he wasn't Tom Cruise right away.
In his movies he is always the best soldier and never makes a mistake, in this he started off unlikable and had to become the best, one mistake at a time.
Agree. It bears all the usual blockbuster adornments of what usually turns out to be a good guys win linear snooze fest and yet defies the expectation. I prefer Cruise in atypical roles, e.g. Tropic Thunder.
I love time loops and I loved this movie.
I don't like tom cruise either but watching him get his ass kicked every single time he got out of bed was worth the watch
Dammit I thought they had announced the 2nd movie
Blunt said this movie left her in tears and pain from all the suit work.
But
She would be up for a sequel if it worked. Only trick is convincing John to do it.
Groundhog Day with guns and aliens.
Don't like Cruise either, but I'm a sucker for any Groundhog Day temporal loop films, so I really enjoyed this one.
If you haven't seen Palm Springs with Andy Samberg, it's really good. Another Groundhog Day kinda movie
I have, and I enjoyed it!
Read the original comment and was gonna suggest Palm Springs. Glad someone beat me to it
The manga is a better story but the monster design in the film was really good
This is a fantastic film and even my wife who was not a Cruise fan really enjoyed it too. It looks like we're getting very close to a sequel as well.
I just watched it for the first time after finding this post. Thanks for the recommendation.
