I've reviewed a time travel movie, I've reviewed a Tom Cruise movie, so next up I clearly need to do a Time Travel movie with Tom Cruise in it 
. As mentioned previously, I love time travel movies, so it shouldn't be a surprise that I like Edge of Tomorrow, but I also thought it was pretty well done. Like Synchronicity, there's a fair amount of repeated scenes, but with a new twist every time. Unlike Synchronicity, I felt no need to get a cheat sheet, as there was much less... overlap, perhaps is the word. Definitely recommended. Here's the introduction to the film from Wikipedia's entry:
"Edge of Tomorrow (alternatively known by its tagline Live. Die. Repeat. and marketed as such on home release[4])[nb 1] is a 2014 American science fiction action film starring Tom Cruise and Emily Blunt. Doug Liman directed the film based on a screenplay adapted from the 2004 Japanese light novel All You Need Is Kill by Hiroshi Sakurazaka. The film takes place in a future where Earth is invaded by an alien race. Cruise plays Bill Cage, a public relations officer with no combat experience, who is ordered by his superior to film the first wave of a crucial landing operation against the aliens. Though Cage is killed in combat, he finds himself in a time loop that sends him back to the day preceding the battle every time he dies. Cage teams up with Special Forces warrior Rita Vrataski (Blunt) in seeking a way to defeat the extraterrestrials."
And here's the trailer:
