Edge of Tomorrow (2014) Review - 9/10 Rating

We have rated Edge of Tomorrow 9 out of 10, because it takes a brilliant sci-fi concept and executes it with incredible energy, humour and pacing. Tom Cruise is excellent as Cage, starting as a cowardly outsider before evolving into a hardened fighter through countless repeated deaths. Emily Blunt completely steals scenes as the iconic Rita Vrataski, becoming one of modern sci-fi cinema’s coolest action heroes. The time-loop mechanic never becomes repetitive because the film constantly evolves the story and reveals new information. For manga and graphic novel adaptation fans, Edge of Tomorrow proves how effectively Japanese sci-fi concepts can translate into blockbuster cinema.
