I like that Cruise was an actual cowardly slimebag at the start. This film is a pleasant surprise in many ways.
Cruise is really good in this! And if you don't like him, he also dies a lot! It's win-win!
The final scene before the credits made me laugh out loud.
Definitely. The early parts have to a tribute to a 60s film called "The Americanization Of Emily". James Garner is a cowardly press officer who gets ordered to take part in D-Day.
I don't really see what makes him cowardly. There are lot's of units in the military that don't see active combat and have different roles. One thing that doesn't make sense from a writer's POV in the movie is that they try to portray him as cowardly for not wanting to do it, even in interviews about the movie, but his reaction is completely reasonable. It's also extremely detrimental to the entire military to do something like that. Giving a serviceman controls to a tank that they have no idea how to use is a hundred times worse than not having him and 20 other allied soldiers on the battlefield. It's why the military puts so much emphasis on their weakest links being just as good as the others. You can't afford to have that one guy who is not only bad at his job, but could potentially end up killing everyone else by his own screw ups.
Like they said at the start of the movie, that's a total movie thing to happen. No modern day, non-third world military would ever risk something like that. It's even worse for PR if this guy promoting your forces "randomly" gets enlisted to fight, then dies on the first day. What'd day expect?
@@ndt7379 you’re taking this a little too seriously. I mentioned his character’s cowardice only in contrast to Cruise’s usual more heroic main characters and was praising him on playing such a character. Picking apart realism in a blockbuster is pretty futile, even if you’re like George and just can’t help it.
Fun fact: on set, it took every person took ~30 minutes to get into their suit, but Cruise decided to make it a competition to see who can get dressed fastest. And because of that, I think they got it down to about 3-4 minutes each. So, a huge save on time getting ready and more for filming
Emily Blunt told a story that he absolutely hated it on the Graham Show so maybe thats why
One thing I always appreciate about Tom Cruise in action movies is how he allows himself to seem vulnerable and not always in control. Even in the Mission Impossible films. A lot of action stars often come off as stoic and unflappable.
And that's boring.
Because if the main actor isn't phased by the violence and devastation around them, then the situation probably isn't all that dangerous.
Tom Cruise is doing what guys like Bruce Willis and Harrison Ford were doing in the 80s. Allowing themselves to look scared and vulnerable, neither of which means that the character is a coward or incapable
Tom Cruise is also from the 80s lol
@@NecropsY1 very well though! and don't forget he also runs
This movie was a lot better than I thought it would be. They're supposedly working on a sequel. And yes sometimes communications will be shut down for operational security
Original manga much better.
My understanding is that they were planning to start filming and then Bill Paxton died. After that, everything stopped.
A sequel for this movie is unnecessary since the story or plot is closed and shut already.
@@A_Planner_and_a_Dreamer yeah, just let it be. Not everything needs to be ran into the ground until people stop caring.
It's the movie title that kills it. Good name but not great catchy name and most who I think hear it aren't too impressed to watch it. After u see it though it's as cool as Minority Report and War of the Worlds.
One of my favorite movies! It's incredibly rewatchable.
Pun intended?
@@tamberlame27 Live. Binge. Rewatch.
And you get to do so without getting shot in the head!
... no. wait. Put that down. No! SERIOUSLY!
**BANG**
Bill Paxton was the unsung star of this film. His performance as Master Sergeant Farell was so hilarious and endearing.
I literally grew up watching him in films like Apollo 13, Twister, Titanic, and Mighty Joe Young, so it's sad to think he's not with us any more.
He's genuinely missed. 🙏🙏🙏
Tombstone, Weird Science, True Lies.
@@okgo620 Aliens Predator 2 and Terminator
RIP Paxton
"You're American."
"No, sir, I am from Kentucky."
"Thunderbirds are go!"
If you want more Emily Blunt, I recommend Sicario (2015). Great movie. Kinda depressing, but one of the best thrillers in recent memory.
Yes this! A thousand times this! Sicario
I would definitely like to see their impression of Sicario. That film is a work of absolute art.
Great movie!!!
I cant like this comment enough
Fantastic direction by Denis Villeneuve.
"Find me when you wake up" chills me every time.
The film is loosely based on a Japanese light novel series called "All You Need Is Kill". "All You Need Is Kill" also has a manga adaptation. There are a lot of changes, and some character names have been westernised, but the base premise is the same. Rita's backstory in the original is really cool. We don't know what her real name was as when her family was killed; she was underage, so she took the name of a dead woman, "Rita Vrataski", to join the army. Tom Cruise's character in the original is a Japanese man named Kiriya Keiji, but he gets the nickname "Cage" from "Keiji."
All you need is kill has a dark bleak ending though. Which is why Edge of Tomorrow’s ending is a bit incoherent, because they changed it to make it more upbeat,
@@tileux that ending to All you need is Kill had me in shambles.
@@ThatGrumpyOldBastard Me too.
@@tileux They changed it to leave themselves the option for a sequel. Which is reportedly being worked on.
Also, while the movie never gives a reason why Rita carries a sword, the manga explained that in the previous battle, she kept dying and having to reset because she ran out of ammo, so she started carrying a melee weapon to fix that problem.
This and Oblivion were two Tom Cruise sci-fi movies that came out with relative little fanfare and seemed to be okay-ish fun but turned out to be pretty solid and very enjoyable movies.
Totally agree with you here. Oblivion is one of my favourite movies. Great acting, a decent story, amazing music by M83 and Joseph Trapanese, and great visuals to boot. Sure, Tom's capable of a lot more (I'm thinking back to movies like Born on the Fourth of July and Magnolia here), but I enjoyed both this and Oblivion immensely. I personally love seeing Tom in science fiction. There's something about it that just seems to fit him.
@@SuperFurry68A Crazy how a man who follows a religion ,founded by a sci fi writer, fits into sci fi films so well.
So, one thing the movie never explains is how the aliens are so advanced. The mimics in general arrive on earth and get totally demolished, but as soon as the Alpha is killed, it resets the day. Like the way Cage's character adapts, so do they. They essentially kept resetting the days until all of their units adapted and evolved into these extremely fast things you see Cage facing now. The Omega is constantly evolving it's AI with every reset. If earth's military or any force from another planet is able to create a new weapon to kill it's Alphas, it resets days until it eventually has the knowledge of how to defeat them. The mech suits probably worked well against them, until they kept evolving to know how to kill them. Remember, the start of the movie says they knew the military was coming. The Omega could have replayed that single beach scene a hundred times until it knew exactly where every single soldier was to take out. Even the plane getting shot down must have been something they kept trying until they found out the exact coordinates to hit them out of the sky from. The Omega could have originally sent out Mimics that looked like human or were akin to insects, but eventually found out that this octopus shape was the apex predator design for dealing with human targets. It's actually a really interesting thing to think about.
I always thought of it as a weapon system rather than something that evolved itself. Seems created to clear life off planets - as doesn't have much intelligence of its own. Whoever created it launches them off to space and then follows afterwards.
I always just wondered how she knew she lost it. I mean it's not like she knew how the blood worked. She didn't kill herself to find out she lost it. She just assumes she lost it. I thought the ending was just gonna be her first day all over again from an older age.
@Hazmonk She could "feel" that it wasn't in her body anymore. The main character knew he lost it completely because he felt it gone.
Never get tired of mentioning that Rita's sword is a blade from a helicopter. I mean, how badass is that? I struggled a bit with the mechanics of the ending, but fortunately, there are a number of people here who have helped. From what I've heard, the major block to a sequel is Tom Cruise's schedule. The dude is booked until Christmas, 2096.
The sequel is in the works now, I think it will be in the cinemas next year.
@@mizrolist 2024
Not Tom Cruise’s schedule… Emily’s. She turned it down for Marry Poppins. 🤦🏾♂️
He doesn't have the 'Omega' ability in the film.... he, by absorbing the blood of the 'Alpha' is able to become part of the alien neural network, and trigger the Omega's ability to reset the day, upon his death.
At the end of the film, he absorbs the Alpha's blood again, and is able to trigger the Omega's ability one last time, as they die together in the same explosion. He will not be able to reset any more days, as upon him waking up on this last reset, the Omega is now dead.
Came here to say this as well. 2 weeks too late. Lol
well, dependant that there are no more omegas, or even higher than that? if there is a galactic queen somewhere in the universe :P
Another great film with Emily Blunt is 'Sicario' from 2015, really worth a watch
Sicario is amazing.
Yes, I was thinking the same thing.
Sicario is an absolute classic.
An incredible movie. Villeneue (sp?) has done some amazing work lately (Sicario, Blade Runner 2049, Dune, etc...)
@@deanroddey2881 My favourite of his movies is 'Arrival'.
Communication with people outside your unit during combat can lead to information being leaked to the public, so they lock down or limit communication to avoid this type of issue.
The moment when he breaks formation and starts to try to run away in the exoskeleton was just great. TC did a great job of being the completely useless coward, and progressing to badass.
Great fun!
There's a great book by Ken Grimwood called "Replay". It predates this and "Groundhog Day". It's about this guy in his 40s who dies and wakes up in the past in his 18 year old body with all the memories of his previous life. Every time he dies, he wakes up in a younger body with all the memories of all if his lives. It's one if my favorite books.
In the comic, he relived the day 10000 times.
For not really hearing anything about this film, I was really surprised and enjoyed the heck out of it.
Was a unique twist on the alien invasion trope.
It was also the first time I saw Emily Blunt and I was instantly sold on her as an action star.
I found Oblivion hit the feels more as far as Post Apocalyptic Sci-Fi with Tom Cruise but I seem to rewatch this one way more.
Oblivion is a brilliant film. The soundtrack by M83 is spectacular.
@@nullunit "It wasn't revolutionary but it was good movie." This!
The notion of having Edge of Tomorrow be a really re-watchable film pleases me for reasons that are probably obvious. 😊
from the UA-cam channel: "Mosh" posted ~3 years ago, running 7min 43 sec long, called: "I counted EVERY DEATH in 'Edge of Tomorrow'" they concluded a low rough estimate of ~471 times that Cage relived the day, but probably a lot more. love the channel and hope that everyone is having a pleasant summer.
I always wondered how Rita confirmed that she really lost her power. Even after she got pumped with someone else's blood, she would never know she lost the power, unless she tried to off herself.
That's... a very good point.
In the film it's implied that Cage felt the power leaving when he woke up in the hospital. And the next assumption would be that she felt the same thing.
21:35 you can see his eyes going clear from the opaque, his reaction in the movie tells you he knows by the feel that he's been disconnected. In the full movie the next thing he says to Rita is that he's "out," that he's lost the power and he can feel it.
@@B3RyL They said they could feel it.
I will NEVER forget the first time I saw the "Mimics" for the first time and being beyond shocked and horrified.
The design for them was so creepy and disorienting to watch. Not to mention how disturbing Cage's first "death" was.
The trailer did a good job of hiding the actual enemy/antagonist, so I assumed it was a human force or country being fought in the future. NOPE! 🙃😭😩
Without having ever died and being groundhogged, I knew what the thumbnail was gonna be.
While some moments of the plot make me "wait, how would that work?", for once I'm glad they keep the focus on delivering a story full of thrills and all kinds of emotional beats.
The movie was inspired by a Japanese book and Manga called "All You Need is Kill." You can listen to the audio book on UA-cam.
Oblivion with Tom Cruise is also a really good Sci-Fi film, it is a little more slow, but the cinematography and the soundtrack are amazing
Emily Blunt’s character of Rita is named after Andy MacDowell’s character in Groundhog Day.
OMG! This is my favourite Tom Cruise movie (I'm sure he has more, but this is a great film)
Edge of Tomorrow aka Groundhog Day + Starship Troopers
Also Known As "On Your Feet, Maggot" 😆
Glad you guys liked this one. I think it deserves a lot more exposure than it's had. Happy to see more and more people discover it.
I just watched this last week! I love the concept of save scumming being the entire inspiration behind the source material.
There is a screenplay written for a second film, that Emily Blunt said is really good, but over time especially it seems less likely that it will gedt made. Cruise is busy as always anyhow, about to shoot a movie in actual outer space after finishing Mission Impossible.
Since we have been too dumb to industrialize the Moon by now, I live in hope that shooting movies in actual outer space will be the trigger to get us up out of the mud.
@@steriopticon2687 We're planning to get a few people back on the moon in the second half of this decade. It a small thing, but it's a step in the right direction...
In a time where there's a lot of movies that adapt videogames' stories, this movie decided to adapt a videogame's mechanic. And it was so much fun doing it.
This is one of the most underrated Tom Cruise movies. It's absolutely my favorite he's ever done, except maybe Top Gun Maverick, my wife and I just watched that last night and were on the edge of our seats. What a banger
Tom Cruise and Edge of Tomorrow don't get enough respect, this is so good
The military answer to your question about why him. If they are pulling PR officers for combat, then they are losing badly, a lot of people have died, and there aren't any other options left. As for the phone calls, if its any kind of secret attack or time sensitive, phone calls generally aren't allowed.
😂Arguably the funiest intro ever "X gonna give to ya"! You put me on the floor 😂.
You might like to try 12:01 which was made before Groundhog Day, there are two versions, a short starring Kurtwood Smith, and a feature length 'remake' based on the concept of the short. Happy Death Day is a slasher version of Groundhog Day and is worth a watch too..
Definitely an underrated Sci-Fi flick. One of my favs for sure. If you're interested in more Tom Cruise Sci-Fi, I would highly recommend OBLIVION. Morgan Freeman is also in that one. Another would be ELYSIUM, starring Matt Damon (no Tom in that one). All three are under appreciated in my book but all favs of mine. Glad you like this one.
And George - the 'push up part' ... Agreed
"On your feet Maggot!!" I love this movie and I'll watch it anytime.
"Why does she keep eating the card after he walked away?" Made me laugh cause another reactor said the exact same thing a cpl weeks ago
3:44 - its called being drafted
"I'm not turned on, you're turned on."
When I was in Marine Corps Boot Camp, we had one guy who everyone couldn't stand. One of the highlights of Boot Camp was the time a Drill Instructor made him run in place in front of a mirror. He had to point at himself, then at his reflection, and repeat, "I'm not crazy, you're crazy," over and over again.
This is the explanation for why Tom Cruise is a helicopter pilot; jet fighter pilot; stunt-car driver; motorcycle rider; free-dive breath holder; and A-list actor, etc., this film is based on his true life story and he's had multiple chances to learn all of these crazy skills! 😉
I'll watch just about anything sci fi. There are a *lot* of movies where I excuse a bunch of shortcomings because I'm so enamored with the concept and/or plot. This one was the opposite--ridiculously bad plot, but the execution of it was so good that I couldn't help but enjoy the end product. Kind of like Independence Day, where a whole lot of it doesn't make any sense but you don't care because glib witticisms and big kabooms.
>bad plot
>ok
9:10 "find me when you wake up."
simone's reaction 😮😆👍🏼
I actually really like the plain backgrounds. lol. The gold and silver contrast each other really well.
"Oh, hello. I'm not turned on. YOU'RE turned on." LOL!!! Yup, the push-up scene is very rewatchable.
"Is there something on my face!?"
"Yeah, actually it's like a different face."
Emily Blunt yoga scene is this generation's Linda Hamilton pull up scene in Terminator 2: Judgment Day.
The most underrated Sci-Fi movie of all time. Chris McQuarrie and Tom Cruise are one hell of a combo ❤❤
The "Why did they force him to enter combat in the first place" thing is definitely one of the biggest points of confusion in the movie and really isn't explained very well. There are reasons, though, and they basically amount to "Fuck this asshole, let's get him killed".
Is it weird that I mostly subbed for the awesome video thumbnails I always see from you guys on my feed?!
Ooooh, can't wait to see you folks' reaction to this one. Love this movie!
Yeah definitely, armies have never forced people to fight for them when they don't want to
It does get exhausting seeing people treat every plot point or character beat as a mistake
@@beageler It think it all depends on how far the movie pushes the suspension of disbelief. For example, I absolutely can not stand the movie Prometheus due to all the logical gaffs that break my suspension of disbelief. But in this movie, could I easily imagine a General sending a blackmailer to a combat front to get him out of the way permanently? Sure.
But generally soldiers who refuse to fight are imprisoned, not forced to fight. They would indeed be a danger and counterproductive if forced into combat. Court martialling them is the deterrent for others to ensure they are more likely to follow orders. I had the same reaction when I saw the film, though its hard to predict what the military would do when humanity is faced with extinction. Probably just shoot those who refused to fight- its a deterrent that is less resource intensive and less risky for comrades
@@beageler Even conscripted soldiers who refuse to fight are subject to court martial rather than physically forced to fight. This is a western army depicted in the movie. They don't use slaves or convicts. However, it is just a movie after all so I'm sure they can ignore reality a little. It was a good film .
"Is it like Ground Hog Day?" Bing!!! Right outta the box!
I was nearly at the end of the video when I noticed George's T-shirt. I need me one of those 😃
If you loved this really cool twisty sci-fi movie with Emily Blunt then I highly recommend the really cool twisty sci-fi movie Looper with Emily Blunt. (Although, not before the really cool twisty sci-fi movies Blade Runner 2049 and Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, even though they sadly do not have Emily Blunt. 😉)
Also, I dunno what's happening but I think my name has been left off the list of $25 donors? I assumed the last couple videos were just recorded before I jumped to that tier, but since this one seems to have been partially recorded in a different place now I am curious what's up.
@@beageler uhhhhhh thanks?
u forgot Adjustment Team (with emily blunt)
stop saying there is a twist or you just ruin it.
@@TheBubbet Calling a film "twisty" and saying a film has "a twist" are two totally different things. I wouldn't say any of them have big twists. You would also think that's obvious because none of them, including Edge of Tomorrow, do have a big twist.
i love eternal sunshine of the spotless mind, +1 from me on that one
Sooooo glad you finally made it to this one!! It's an awesome film. Glad you enjoyed it.
I really didn’t think much of this film going into it, I have now watched it about 5 times and love it
You guys were not my first reaction channel but you are certainly one of my favorites if not my favorite now! Partially because of great selection of movies and tv but mostly cause you two are fun to watch and always brighten my day
The movie that first put Tom Cruise on the map was Risky Business(1983). In case you're interested,..hope you enjoy. 👍
Idk the actual number of days but I remember hearing an approximation somewhere that Cage went through multiple decades' worth of resets - judging from how he improves I can totally believe that
Finally someone movie reacting to the movies I want to see reacted to.
Check out Matchstick Men (2004), Identity (2003), Face/Off (1997), Stir of Echoes w/ Kevin Bacon (1999), Frequency (2000)
that quicksave, load game skit *chefs kiss*
This movie is such an absolute blast to watch - one of my favorite popcorn flicks for when I just want to sit down and watch something fun!
I love this movie! I love their chemistry! I love the hard work that went into everything, especially acting while wearing those incredibly heavy suits! Huge congrats to everyone involved. And also: amazing reaction! Loads of fun ❤
I think this movie beautifully illustrated a true hero, one who was not built for the task but because of the call of duty and responsibility he/she took on the challenge and kept trying; regardless if he/she achieved the goal or not or how reluctant he/she was at the beginning. There are countless heroes in our daily lives. Don't lose your heart, and that makes you a hero.
Those power suits were built, they were quiet heavy and Cruise would often spend 12 hours or so in it during filming. Say what you want about his activities outside of films but he has some serious commitment to his films.
OPSEC - Operational Security. While it's a 24/7 thing, before movements it's extra strict. When a man died deployed, we lost all outside contact aside from mail. Internet and phones were shut down to prevent news of the death. mostly before the officials could contact next of kin.
There is a book called "Replay" similar to this, where the lead character dies and relives his life over again, from 1963 to 1988, but each replay gets shorter and then after his last replay his life continues
I like how at the beginning Cage was a weakling and coward; one who would never be able to attract a warrior like Rita but by the end of the movie, which from her perspective would be the first time she meets him, he is a leader, a fighter, knows her intimately, understands her, and would die for her. He walks up to her as the man of her dreams. To the outside world he went to sleep on the helicopter as a weakling and woke up a warrior and a general.
In response to your question about why they would put someone who doesn't want to fight into combat, it's because soldier's need to obey orders. If you could get out of fighting by just saying you didn't want to do it and resisting, then your army is going to fall apart pretty darn quickly. That word would spread like wildfire - "a soldier went into the commander's office and said that he felt his strengths were in other things, so they just let him go!" Imagine trying to win WWII while you were just letting people do whatever they felt they were best at and not what the war effort required. Imagine Saving Private Ryan if Tom Hanks just let his soldiers go because they wanted to...
The alien design was awesome almost like a 5th dimensional being moving in our dimension.
6:00 weren't supposed to know they were coming...perhaps George let someone make a phone call the day before the surprise attack.-Ernie Moore Jr.
In the original ending they shot the day was reset, and then they were all killed getting to the Louvre as the mimics knew they were coming.
I remember seeing this movie in the theaters and it was okay, cool reaction as always Simone & George, you both take care
@3:09 yes it is oftentimes SOP to not allow phone calls before a major offensive movement for Operational Security
I really love how this film is Independence Day but if Groundhog day and the first act of Saving Private Ryan collide.
I'm glad you guys enjoyed this! Watch Boss Level too. I won't specify why you should, but you should.
I always describe this is Starship Troopers meets Groundhog Day. Fun film.
I see I wasn’t the only one mesmerized by that push up pose.
Yes. No phone calls or any other outside contact so there's no leak of information as to where the military unit is going and why. There is then also no reason for the opponent(s) to kidnap family or friends to try to extract aforementioned information. It's a security and safety issue.
Lol i forget that Andie MacDowell's character from Groundhog Day is named Rita, also
Shutting down all communications is SOP for OPSEC reasons.
I was in Afghanistan during the Marcus Luttrell rescue. Our communications with the outside world were almost completely shutdown. We could make the occasional phone call home, but everything was heavily surveilled. Anyone saying anything about Marcus or the incident was immediately arrested and thrown in the brig. There were a couple guys who made this mistake. They were court-martialled. The enemy can listen in on communications, so that is why OPerational SECurity is so vital.
Simone has a really contagious laugh, great reaction guys.
The woman who continued eating the playing card is Tom Hardy's wife Charlotte Riley.
I really enjoy how much Cruise's character is just a cowardly weasel of a man at the beginning.
George, Simone, the mash up you're looking for is ... "Groundipendence Day". You're welcome.
14:18 I read that as he's falling in love, but also that he's becoming traumatized from having watched her die so many times.
12:10 I reason it out as, rather than resetting time, the Omega transmits what it's learned back in time to the start of the previous day. That way, it's not just fussing with the time stream of the entire universe, and its influence would be limited to only its own forces on the one planet.
No number of repeat days for Cage was given in the movie.
In the movie Rita repeated Verdun 300 times
In the book Cage repeated 160 times and Rita repeated 211
i just watched this recently. dont know how i ever missed it. it is right up my alley and i loved it. Cruise, of course, is always great and i love the premise (yes groundhog day).
That thumbnail tho...hands down you guys really top tier in thumbnail game in youtube lol
"Independence Training Day" ( A must-see Denzel flick in there 👌)
This is a genius movie. Got out in 2014. I cannot recall anything even remotely close created since then.
Live die repeat was the original title btw. Thats why it says it on the cover and not edge of tomorrow.
The military is (in some countries) a voluntary service - up until you enlist. Then your superior officer own you.
Cruise's character received a lawful order. Probably whoever selected him picked him from a hat. Doesn't matter. The order was given, and if soldiers started not following orders they didn't like, who would be in the front of a frontal charge on killing ground?
Granted, protocol for a soldier disobeying orders is to send him to a prison. Maybe firing squad, if it was in combat, so ten years or more in the stockade. Not send him to the front with a fake identity. That would not only be illegal but stupid, as it degrades the efficiency of the unit he's inserted in.
He didn't kill himself after being chased by the military because then the third act would be boring. And that is the weakest thing about the movie.
I'd say that this is Groundhog Starship trooper, rather than Groundhog Independence Day.
BTW, the reason this movie is so much better than the average SF action movie (IMO) is because it was based on a Manga - "All you need to do is Kill".
I think they should have had her attempt to reset the day right after he says "It's in Paris!", but have them interrupted by the soldier smashing down on the car. The scene would work just fine by simply shortening the time frame by a few seconds.
Lol you can hear the bare wall/ empty appartment echo on George's audio.
Simone if you really love Emily Blunt then you definitely should react with George to the "Quiet Place"(2018) and "Quiet Place 2 (2020) if you like one, and you will for sure 😉
