Went in not knowing much about the plot except it was a lot like groundhog day but in a military genre.

It actually turned out to be a pretty good popcorn flick with a good bit of comedy. Not awesome by any means but it was entertaining.

8/10

I'm pretty damn shocked it's getting rated so high right now. It doesn't look like a good movie.

The previews for the last 3 or so Tom Cruise movies have not hyped me up but they were entertaining movies. Seems to be his MO, entertaining but unspectacular movies.

Think it officially comes out Thursday or Friday. There was a free preview screening here. The CW puts it on so you have to listen to them talk about the shows on the CW for about 10 minutes but then you watch the movie for free. You just have to go to a place to pick up your free admission tickets.

That's all I really like to see in the movie theatre anyway. I can watch the "good movies" at home.

"Dying again and again, Cruise has rarely been so likable."

After reading this, I may go see it.

FWIW I read the book and the plot was very straight forward leading up to one twist at the end.

The trailers look like the movie encompasses more ground than the book but the same premise, I'm looking forward to it.

this. his worst movie in the last 10 years was knight and day and it was pretty humorous at the least.

In some futuristic war, he dies again and again in an altered reality in a effort save people? So it's basically Source Code?

I enjoyed this film, definitely had a good bit of comedy which was actually humorous. Solid film.

I want a spoiler version of this thread to come out so I can communicate with other viewers about the groundhog day/time travel effect.

Better or worse than Oblivion? Seems like a similar type of movie (futuristic, not what it seems, plot twist at the end).

Cruise gets a lot of hate but he rarely puts out a bad movie. Easily the top movie star over the last 30 years as a leading actor
