Edge of Tomorrow (2014)

[sachiel]

I honestly have been too busy with part-time work and school to see this yet. But....its at the top of my list of next movies to see in theatres. Honestly I've heard nothing but good things about this one. Guess it blows Tom Cruise's previous scifi action movie out of the sky, Oblivion. lol.

I'd like to see this movie in theaters, not sure when I'll get a chance just yet. I picked up the movie re-release of the novel (All You Need Is Kill. title changed for movie tie-in) to read, but I haven't decided whether to watch the movie first or not.

I did read the first chapter of the manga, it's currently free in the Viz Manga App as part of the current free collection. I like the concept, and it seems like it'll prove to be an interesting story.

I just saw it last Friday and thought it was really good. The trailers do it a disservice, as the movie is actually very clever and actually really funny.

I wasn't a fan of the tacked on ending, but this would be a 5/5 if the movie ended 2 minutes earlier. As of now, its a 4. I really dug it. I never read the manga, but I could see a lot of Japanese sci fi influence in the film (the mech suits, the Omega, and the very Honda-esque idea that all the countries in the world united to take on an alien invasion).

This one is the underdog of the summer, guys. Check it out.

I haven't seen the movie.. But let me guess.. Cruise and Blunt succeed with finally winning... But oops, Cruise dies at the end resetting everything. Am I right? I'm right aren't I?

Finally got around to seeing this. I really liked it, but I'm totally confused by the ending (I think a lot of people were). As MFW said, I'd rather this movie ended about 2 minutes earlier and it would be a perfect movie.

Variety:

Others, such as “Edge of Tomorrow” ($352.6 million on a $178 million budget) won’t break even, but have stemmed the bleeding with help from foreign crowds.

Box Office Mojo:
Domestic Total as of Jul. 20, 2014: $96,617,876
+ Foreign: $261,300,000
= Worldwide: $357,917,876

Well, upon my first viewing, it just seemed like the day should reset for Tom Cruise, but then the Omega would still be alive and he'd have to do everything over again. I've read an explanation that basically says when he kills the Alpha at the beginning, the Alpha also dies in the past because we never see it again. I suppose that could work, or maybe that particular Alpha is still there in the beach battle, but we don't see Tom Cruise kill it again because he's trying different things each time he goes through the day. Maybe there are days where he kills it and survives, but the movie doesn't show us this simply because it would be redundant and unnecessary to drive the story forward. I don't know...I just don't really see anything in the movie that explicitly explains why killing the Omega would cause it to die one day earlier.

Best video game movie ever?

The new title is cooler, but won't this just further confuse people who didnt' see it in theaters?

All You Need is Kill.

[Benjamin Haines]

Of the three different titles this film has had, Live, Die, Repeat is honestly the best. It's memorable, unique, and it conveys the movie's premise nicely. The film probably would have sold more tickets in theaters if they had called it that instead of the ultra-generic Edge of Tomorrow.


This decision does reek of desperation and general disorder among WB's marketing department, though.

Finally had a chance to see it. Not bad at all, though not as great as some had advertised it to be. I know it is based on the novel “All You Need Is Kill” which I have never heard of before. Because of that, this movie reminded me of two episodes of The Twilight Zone – “A World of Difference” with Howard Duff, and the classic “Shadow Play” with Dennis Weaver. Anyone who has watched those episodes will know what I am talking about.

I watched this for the first time about a month ago. It was actually better than I thought it was gonna be. My wife had an issue with the way it ended though. Anyone else share her sentiment?
