Right now I'm not really in that groove to make a very detailed Edge of Tomorrow. I saw Edge of Tomorrow with a friend two weeks ago on Wednesday. It was closer to 2 hours but the content of the movie justified its rather long length.
movie review... However I want to say a few things to say about
(Assuming you know the gist of the trailer...) Despite the repeated "resetting" in the movie, when Cage is thrown to the start of the time loop, the "resets" weren't at all tedious to watch through. I really enjoyed and appreciated how the movie makers made an aspect of the movie that could've been tedious and redundant to watch the exact opposite.
Also the aliens in the movie weren't that bad. There's a reason why they don't show what the aliens look like - they're also not all that mind-blowing either. (Without blowing away the plot aspect that the movie depends on...) However the aliens also don't appear in the trailers and all because their abilities - let's settle for that - would half spoil the movie. It's kind of like Kite Runner, where what happens 70 pages and beyond into the book needs to be kept out of the book store's summary or else the whole plot is ruined and no one would bother to read the whole book.
Also the ending kind of felt like a stretch... (If you've watched the movie, then you know what I mean.) Let's just say that the way the ending was going at first made me thought that the movie was going to start at square one again and that Cage wouldn't have escaped the time looping.
So in short I enjoyed Edge of Tomorrow. It was a pretty good movie to me.
