**Sidenote: Whenever Tom Cruise is in a movie with an interesting premise, I always weigh whether or not I want to spend 90+ minutes watching his acting. I'll never forget the couch-jumping crap on the Oprah Show, and it's all I think about when I see him.**
Edge of Tomorrow was initially the title of this film when it came out in theaters, and it's so bland, no wonder no one went to see it. I was glad when they released the movie on DVD/Blu Ray because they changed it to Live, Die, Repeat. I'm not sure why they didn't just keep the original title from the manga: All You Need is Kill (highly recommend the manga).
Tom Cruise works in this movie because his character is kind of a bumbling, self-absorbed idiot in the beginning. Aliens have invaded Earth and an attack on Normandy is launched. Cruise's character gets the power to relive each day to try to turn the tide. I don't want to give too much away as to how/why that power would exist, since it's part of the movie.
I loved Emily Blunt in the film, she was fierce and strong.
Overall, this movie was entertaining, and I can definitely re-watch this movie.

I usually find that Tom Cruise films would be a whole lot better if they didn't have Tom Cruise in them... that said, this is the best film he's done in quite a while.
