Movie Review: ***^Edge of Tomorrow (2014)

This is the alien war that the aliens are winning.  Tom Cruise stars as Cage, a captain who has been Shanghaied to the front lines.  He kills a particular alien that givs him the power to relive that day over and over.  Sergeant Rita (Emily Blunt) had the same ability but lost it when she did not die one day.  They team together to figure how to kill the Omega, the life force that is at the center of the aliens, as they all use the same nervous system.  Being one body with many parts.  So we live one day after another with Rita making sure Cage is dead at the end of the day; and slowly they get closer and closer.  When they day finally comes to attack the Omega, Cage recruits his old unit to help. 

Great fun, especially the ending which I had to watch twice to make sur i understood it.
