EB's Matt Heywood writes, "The CinemaSins YouTube channel’s latest sin filled critique revolves around the stellar Edge of Tomorrow, and while I don’t agree that this film had many sins, it’s still fun to see its small issues put under a microscope by the CS crew."
Film 214 of my 2015 500 Film Challenge. Groundhog Day meets Halo starring Tom Cruise is an excellent and surprisingly smart sci-fi action film.
EB's Matt Heywood writes, "The wick on 2014 is almost completely burnt up, so it’s time to reflect on all of the awesome geekiness that came out over the past twelve months for us to consume. We’ve already released our Golden Buddha gaming awards, so it’s time to switch focus to the movie scene, which was packed full of great geek centric films."
Collider:
Seriously, are we supposed to call it Live Die Repeat: Edge of Tomorrow now? That’s what the packaging of the Blu-ray (and its title on VOD) suggests, which is odd for a movie that made a little over a hundred million domestically. Generally that sort of rebranding happens when a film flops, but perhaps this change was made because that’s what audiences thought the title was from the marketing. Regardless, this Tom Cruise sci-fi action movie was easily one of the better movies of this past summer, but perhaps Cruise fatigue or title confusion left the film to underperform. Starring alongside Emily Blunt and Bill Paxton, Cruise does great work in this video game-inspired film and my review of the Blu-ray of Edge of Tomorrow follows after the jump.
