Gripping, well-acted, funny, & clever, Edge of Tomorrow offers entertaining proof that Tom Cruise is still more than capable of shouldering the weight of a blockbuster action thriller. Read critic nhận xét

Edge of Tomorrow is an underrated sci-fi action film that effectively mixes time loops in the war between humans & aliens.


*

In 2014, stars Tom Cruise & Emily Blunt shared the screen together in the sci-fi film, Edge of Tomorrow. It was directed by Doug Liman, who's notable for constructing well-made kích hoạt movies such as The Bourne Identity and Mr. Và Mrs. Smith. While Liman's feature wasn't necessarily a massive box office success, it still made a lot of money worldwide, and had an overly positive critical reception. However, the film deserves way more respect because it provided a more complex protagonist for Cruise, a strong female character for Blunt, and it's a well-choreographed action film that cleverly combines time loops and warfare between humans và machines.

Edge of Tomorrow is a sci-fi story based on the Japanese novel, All You Need Is Kill, by Hiroshi Sakurazaka. Liman's film is one of several Hollywood features khổng lồ adapt from Japanese material. Sergio Leone's A Fistful of Dollars, the first film in The Man With No Name Western trilogy, was inspired by Akira Kurosawa's samurai film, Yojimbo. In both movies, the protagonist is the tough hero pitted between two rival families at war with each other.

In Liman's feature, U.S. Army Major William Cage (Cruise) is the protagonist caught between a military coalition called the United Defense Force (UDF) & a swarm of aliens called "Mimics." Cage, despite his ranking, is only a public affairs officer with little lớn no military combat experience. Cage is left stunned when he's ordered by a commanding General to lớn join J-Squad, one of several units within the UDF that's going khổng lồ invade France in order lớn launch an attack on the deadly alien creatures.


*

The invasion in France ends up becoming a suicide mission since a scared Cage và the entire J-Squad get slaughtered by the mimics. However, after getting blown up with one of the more powerful Alpha aliens, Cage reawakens to lớn the same place he ended up before meeting the J-Squad. The entire film revolves around Cage dying repeatedly & then reliving the same time loop over and over again. However, each time Cage is resurrected, he becomes better at combat and monitors everyone's movement, especially Sergeant Rita Vrataski (Blunt).

Rita is the most skilled fighter in the UDF, and resembles a samurai when killing machines with a large sword. She grows to trust Cage because she has also experienced time loops. Through Rita, Cage is able khổng lồ become a more experienced soldier, and in return, Cage is able lớn guide Rita by telling her how the UDF and the machines operate in their time loop. Their camaraderie grows further when they attempt lớn kill the Omega (the primary source of the Mimics), which would kết thúc the war.

Edge of Tomorrow is effective in terms of the high element of danger involving the aliens. Cruise is well-known for portraying strong guys who are highly skilled and tough khổng lồ beat, like Ethan Hunt in the Mission: Impossible franchise or Pete "Maverick" Mitchell in Top Gun. However, Cruise's protagonist in Liman's sci-fi film is slightly different in the sense that Cage is a scared & vulnerable character who's inexperienced in fighting. In the opening of the film, Cage appears confident on TV when telling reporters that the UDF is a tough military presence that can defeat the Mimics, but when Cage meets General Brigham (Brendan Gleeson), they both know that many soldiers will inevitably die, và Cage expresses his immense fear of war & bloodshed when the General tells him he's going to lớn battle with a squad in France.

Cage's transition from a scared và cowardly army major khổng lồ a strong and determined soldier is convincing because he knows that he's been given the opportunity to save the world. Of course, if there was no time loop, there would be no hope in Cage's mission, & his death would've been immediate & permanent. This makes Cage very lucky, but also more aware of his chances lớn succeed, especially in ending the war và saving thousands of soldiers và innocent lives.


*

Emily Blunt's Rita Vrataski resembles other fierce & powerful female characters who aren't depicted in sci-fi movies very often, like Sigourney Weaver's Ellen Ripley in the Alien series, or Linda Hamilton's Sarah Connor in The Terminator films. Rita talks sternly when confronting Cage or other troops, and fights skillfully in battle, whether she's using a sword or large automatic weapons. Cage và Rita, along with every other UDF soldier, have to lớn wear heavy metal exoskeletons that contain guns and rocket launchers.

While most of the film is intense & action-packed, there are some funny moments between the protagonists, especially when Rita has khổng lồ "kill" Cage several times when he fails or gets heavily injured. Cage's repeated time loop is similar lớn someone playing a video game, where the bạn battles, dies, and then has lớn restart the level. Cage also has some comical confrontations with Master Sergeant Farell (the late great Bill Paxton) & the J-Squad, especially when Cage tells them their names và what they're going khổng lồ say or bởi next.


*

Edge of Tomorrow is an example of an expertly crafted feature that borrows familiar elements from the sci-fi genre, but is even better thanks lớn vulnerable but courageous characters, intense kích hoạt sequences, & the concept of a time loop. Tom Cruise & Doug Liman also make a great team, since they would go on to vị the 2017 biographical feature American Made, another film in which Cruise portrays a flawed and complicated protagonist, Barry Seal, who's in over his head by working for the CIA, selling drugs to lớn dangerous cartels. Perhaps an Edge of Tomorrow sequel is next in line.
