Edge of Tomorrow: Live, Die, Repeat (Sounds like Tom Cruise's Marraiges...)

This film focuses on the World being under seige by aliens called Mimics. Earth is fighting them, in Europe at the time of the movie. They have ravaged most of Europle and, just like the Nazi's, are having issues taking over Britain. There's a large scale attack/landing planned, landing in France, again taking a page right out of WWII. Tom Cruise is somehow essentially taken captive despite being a Major in the U.S. Army and put on the front lines. They wanted him to film/create propaganda of the landing and ensuing battle. Cruise, despite having no real combat training, miraculously doesn't completely suck and manages to kill one of the alien "Generals". He dies in the process, but absorbs the aliens blood and this starts a "Groundhog Day"-like scenario where Cruise continually replays the day. Insert Super-soldier Emily Blunt (She's pretty awesome) and you've got yourself some fun. It's not a unique idea, but it's explained and done in a unique way. The action and CGI are both excellent as they flawlessly combine CGI with real animatronics. The suits are either rubber or actual metal and it's very impressive. Cruise continually brings the wood in these action movies, so hats off to the little guy. Blunt is awesome, somehow being sexy and tough/strong/scary all at the same time. Her career is definitely going to continue to rise. Bottom Line: 8.2 out of 10. Good cast, effects, action, and story makes this worth watching. It certainly has a few ridiculous moments, but it keeps it in check for being primarily an action movie. Blunt is excellent in this film and hopefully gets more great roles from this. An Oscar nomination won't happen from this, but I'm thinking soon her name will be called. Editor's Note: She's ONLY 31! (32 in February) Looks like my marriage proposal is on the way across the pond... 2nd Editor's Note: I forgot she was married to Jim from the Office (John Krasinski).
