Now Tom cruise is a pretty big action star with him thriving in the mission impossible franchise but when I saw the trailer for this film I thought it would be similar to his previous film oblivion, which I was not a huge fan of. However, he was great in this film as he really is a reluctant action star which is different to the character he usually plays and it was a refreshing performance to say the least.
Emily blunt is great and this film truly got the best out of her acting ability. She was an interesting character and also a great action star that really provided a different layer to the film. Her chemistry with cruise was great in this film and was one of the standouts in this film. Bill Paxton plays the drill sergeant in the film and he was good in he role even though you have seen him in this role before the man is good at it. I do wish though that there was an interesting alien character in the film that cruise and blunt have to go against and if that had happened this film would have got full marks.
The story was really interesting with the resetting of time allowing them to play around with the action and character elements of the film. This concept showed some great death scenes and also allowed the two lead characters to have interesting interactions that were not the norm.
The script was surprisingly great, this film was actually pretty funny which I don't particular require but it really does add something to this film.
The action scenes were fantastically done and it was great to watch and as I said before with the concept it allowed for some great death scenes.
Overall I love this film and I definitely think you should see it.
