A Marvel Fanboy Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 "I mean 3 years later his clone shows up ( why 3 years later why not sooner ) and what about the fact that there are at least 50 of them out there I mean what if they all come to claim her ... do they duke it out ? or does she live happily ever after with all of them bukkake style ? " This doesnot need to be explained. As when Sally was blow up by the nukes by Jack, all the 50 Sky Towers had also been blown up, since the system is connected. Harper 49 is alive because Jack (Harper 50) hided him to a safe palce down the earth. All the others were dead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks If that is the case then the ending is slightly more tolerable but still irritatingly very much a cop out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LexJoker Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 Well made movie. Visually good, decent score. But plot too predictable, and obviously inspired by no. of sci-fi movies 2001, Prometheus, Moon... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dark Rock Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 I think this is among one of the top 5 movies of the year so far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichWS Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 I was worried after the terrible opening narration (repeated verbatim later on) and a very clunky first 30-40 minutes. It doesn't always make sense, but I ended up enjoying myself. I was surprised by how much the romantic story clicked for me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Marston Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 fuck! The Blu ray is not going to be in the IMAX aspect ratio. Why? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dementeleus Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 fuck! The Blu ray is not going to be in the IMAX aspect ratio. Why?It would be pillar-boxed slightly. Cropping for standard HD trim it a bit, but not dramatically (the camera sensor captured at 1.9:1, HD is 1.78:1, IMAX projected is closer to 4:3).

ainsleyb Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 I just finished watching this on blu ray and visually, it's one of the most gorgeous looking films I've ever seen. The landscapes, the effects and just the all round look of the film was fantastic. I always find Tom Cruise watchable and that's no different here but the film itself was very average to me. It felt like a very familiar sci-fi and it really failed to hold my attention. The first hour or so was very slow and in all honesty I went in expecting it to have more action, when in actuality it was intended to be a character driven film. Unfortunately I didn't find the relationship dynamics to work very well in the film as the female characters were under developed. A plain jane sci-fi which is redeemed by Cruise and it's incredible visuals. 5/10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Marston Posted August 9, 2013 Share Posted August 9, 2013 (edited) rewatched it on Blu ray and still raelly enjoyed it and even noticed some details I missed before Only big problems I had 1. Julia was boring. Victoria was more likeable and interesting 2. We should have learned what the TET was and what it was doing. Sorry ambiguity is not my thing 3. I am not quite sure what happened to all the other clones of Jack Harper and Victoria at the end won't be surprised if I like this more than Elysium Edited August 9, 2013 by Robert Muldoon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
