Oblivion : Movie Review
Woah, it's been AGES since i last wrote a movie review! :-) Maybe because i rarely get premier screening tickets unlike last time where i get them for almost every single movie lol :-P I'm indeed a movie junkie.
Thank you so much Nuffnang for the premier screening invites! :-)
The only reason why i would even consider watching Oblivion is because of Tom Cruise lol, my all time favorite Mission Impossible actor.
Oblivion would be out in all cinemas exactly tonight 12am movie, so if you are a Tom Cruise fan and don't mind a little eye candy the go ahead and watch this movie. If you are here for a very good plot and graphics..
Sorry to disappoint you..
Turn back. Lol. I'm not kidding.
Yes, I braved this ridicules queue just for my free tickets Σ(▼□▼メ) swt. Nuffnang and Churp Churp should seriously consider getting reusable bunting stands for their movie ticket collection counters since they always place them side by side. The line always gets mixed up and tons of confused people asking each other which line is which (¬_¬)
Synopsis :
A solitary drone repairman working on a war-ravaged planet Earth becomes humanity's last hope for survival in this ambitious sci-fi epic from Tron Legacy director Joseph Kosinski, and Rise of the Planet of the Apes producer Peter Chernin. In the distant future, Earth has been decimated by an intergalactic battle against an alien race known as the Scavangers. The majority of mankind has been evacuated, leaving just a few solitary drone repairmen remaining on the planet's surface. Their job is simple -- stand guard over the ruins of a once-great empire by patrolling the skies, and ensuring the drones continue to function. Jack Harper (Tom Cruise) is nearing the end of his mission to extract resources essential to the survival of the human race when he witnesses a spacecraft fall from the sky. Upon investigating, Jack discovers the capsule contains a mysterious woman. With mission control watching his every move from high up above the clouds, Jack embarks on a spectacular adventure that will not only challenge everything he's been taught about mankind's most defining battle, but perhaps alter the entire course of human history as well.
My Review :
This is just another typical predictable futuristic "save the world/humanity" kind of movie with no exciting twist or whatsoever. Very predictable. Which is a bad thing because I know that it's hard to come out with fresh original movie ideas but the very least they could always do is to spice things up a little, add in some surprises instead of having a person walking into the cinema being able to tell the ending of the movie before it has even started lol. There are some parts of the movie that I swore I nearly nodded off (or I did without realising lol wtf) (￣ェ￣;)
Joseph Kosinski you really disappointed me this time! I practically worshiped you ever since I watched Tron Legacy and you let me down really badly.Worst part is when you see two big epic names collaborating together to make this movie (Joseph Kosinski and Peter Chernin) and the outcome macam ini.. oTL
The only reason I'm letting this movie off the hook is because of Tom Cruise's yummy looks and acting. Damn ♥
My rating?
★★★★
4/10
XOXO,
I think it's pretty hard to find a decent story or plot now. Even if you dump into the action oso it's very hard.
