When Earth falls under attack from invincible aliens, no military unit in the world is able to beat them. Maj. William Cage (Tom Cruise), an officer who has never seen combat, is assigned to a suicide mission. Killed within moments, Cage finds himself thrown into a time loop, in which he relives the same brutal fight -- and his death -- over and over again. However, Cage's fighting skills improve with each encore, bringing him and a comrade (Emily Blunt) ever closer to defeating the aliens.

Critics Consensus

Gripping, well-acted, funny, and clever, Edge of Tomorrow offers entertaining proof that Tom Cruise is still more than capable of shouldering the weight of a blockbuster action thriller.

Doug Liman’s sci-fi action thriller remains one of the most enjoyable American blockbusters of the previous decade.

Edge of Tomorrow is a rousing adventure filled with pulse-pounding thrills and surprising dashes of character-driven humor, the film a breathless two hours of fun worth celebrating.

[Edge of Tomorrow] may not be as smart as it could've been in the broad strokes, but a clever, well-acted thrill ride like this doesn't really need to have its head fully in the game, now does it?

Another romance via time loop, but with Tom Cruise and Emily Blunt. I wish this had somehow acknowledged its Japanese source material, but still an inspired interpretation.

Edge of Tomorrow is one of Tom Cruise’s best films of late. The framework and structure is unique and well handled for the most part and is still exciting, even though the final act isn’t quite on the same level.

Wow what a great movie. Such a fun story. Great action, some underrated great humor. Felt very much like the kind of movies I grew up loving. No agenda, just a great movie. Can’t believe I just saw it in 2025

This movie has an interesting premise, great actors, moments of tenderness, moments of humor, a lot of heart stopping action, and thought-provoking moments that make you wonder if you would have the mental fortitude to do what he did. Thankfully, this happened to a physically fit guy so he could train without having the benefit of time to bulk up. Would be interesting to see how it would play out with someone who wasn't a soldier or a fit dude. 🤔

This movie is so much fun to watch. Emily Blunt is amazing and Tom Cruz brings his A game. If you're interested in sci-fi action movies then this your movie.
