Pros: Strong performances, visually stunning, effective soundtrack, interesting concept. Cons: Thin plot, predictable.
Summary: Whenever I think Tom Cruise and science fiction, my mind goes to that crap film Vanilla Sky that Cruise starred in a decade ago. Yeah, I know he did Minority Report a year later, to sort of make up for things. But I generally ... read more

Pros: Incredible cinematography and visual effects. Cons: Very confused storyline. Morgan Freeman wasted in a bit part.
Summary: It seems these days that when a sci-fi film has anything whatsoever to do with the earth, the setting is practically always "in a post apocalyptic world". Whether it's caused by some alien invasion or a massive war that has left the planet uninhabitable, ... read more

Pros: Cool gadgets and scenery Cons: Nothing major
Summary: Oblivion is the kind of science fiction I so thoroughly enjoy because there’s not enough like it. This has the right balance of plot, action, twists, scenery, and originality to make it worth seeing on the big screen. It’s a little ... read more

Pros: Really nice CGI work. Tom Cruise is a charismatic star. Cons: Character development is sketchy and plot is made from old parts.
Summary: OBLIVION is a gorgeous movie to look at. It’s a marvel of brown and gray. Tom Cruise is a charismatic movie star. Those two elements alone make the film worth seeing. And it’s a good thing OBLIVION has those things ... read more

Pros: Acting, Story, Effects Cons: Pacing
Summary: I have heard Oblivion called a typical Tom Cruise film. In some ways it is, we do have Tom Cruise as the self-sacrificing hero that he plays in a lot of films. However, in other ways it is not. Oblivion has a little more ... read more

Pros: Slick production, fast paced action, and Tom Cruise. Cons: How many times are we going to destory the world?
Summary: Oblivion (2013) Directed by Joseph Kosinski Sixty years ago, Earth was attacked. We won the war, but they destroyed half the planet. Everyone's been evacuated. Nothing human remains. We're here for drone repair. We're the "mop-up ... read more

Pros: A thinking man's post-apocalyptic science fiction adventure. Really cool atmospheric flying machines Cons: Doesn't answer all the questions it poses - but is that really a bad thing?
Summary: I find myself wondering time and again why film makers always targetNew Yorkfor their post apocalyptic tales. I mean, after all, there are other recognizable landmarks in other cities that would make them equally perfect backdrops, too. But ... read more
