The story unfolds in a near future in which a hive-like alien race, called Mimics, have hit the Earth in an unrelenting assault, shredding great cities to rubble and leaving millions of human casualties in their wake. No army in the world can match the speed, brutality or seeming prescience of the weaponized Mimic fighters or their telepathic commanders. But now the world’s armies have joined forces for a last stand offensive against the alien horde, with no second chances. Lt. Col. Bill Cage (Cruise) is an officer who has never seen a day of combat when he is unceremoniously demoted and then dropped—untrained and ill-equipped—into what amounts to little more than a suicide mission. Cage is killed within minutes, managing to take an Alpha down with him. But, impossibly, he awakens back at the beginning of the same hellish day, and is forced to fight and die again…and again. Direct physical contact with the alien has thrown him into a time loop—dooming him to live out the same brutal combat over and over. But with each pass, Cage becomes tougher, smarter, and able to engage the Mimics with increasing skill, alongside Special Forces warrior Rita Vrataski (Blunt), who has lain waste to more Mimics than anyone on Earth. As Cage and Rita take the fight to the aliens, each repeated battle becomes an opportunity to find the key to annihilating the alien invaders and saving the Earth.

EDGE OF TOMORROW is being directed by Doug Liman (“The Bourne Identity,” “Mr. & Mrs. Smith”) from a screenplay written by Dante Harper, Christopher McQuarrie and Joby Harold, based on the novel "All You Need Is Kill" by Hiroshi Sakurazaka. The film stars: Tom Cruise, Emily Blunt, Bill Paxton, Jonas Armstrong (BBC’s “Robin Hood”), Tony Way, Kick Gurry, Franz Drameh, and Charlotte Riley. The film will hit theaters June 6, 2014.

This movie was probably better than all of the superhero movies so far this year, except maybe Cap 2. But it didn't have the words Marvel or Pixar or a toy brand at the front, so what do you expect. People should be more loyal to the concept of originality.

Better than DOFP, maybe better than Cap 2, and certainly one of the better movies out this year. Everyone, go see this movie.

@whysoserious

Your right about the ending..Edge is a fun action movie with a cool premise but can anyone come up with a more original idea of how to defeat the enemy than (SPOILER) blowing it up at the end to save the day?

That has become tiresome. Also,the helmets on the special forces team working with Blunts character looked cool but they were barely utilized. The regular helmets the common grunts used looked weak.

Film definitely deserves more success than it's gotten, it's one of the better summer blockbusters of the year.
