Disappointing
There were a lot of aspects of this sci-fi thriller that I wanted to love, but the constant hyper-specialisation of women's bodies became irritating.

Similar to Blade Runner in terms of the setting, this dystopian series follows Takeshi Kovacs, after his downloaded self is put into a new body 250 years later, and he is forced to solve the murder of a man who has no memory of what happened to him in his last moments. In the future, humans have 'sleeves' and can officially never die but just get put back into a new body.

After a while, this just bordered on ridiculous (more so than your average sci-fi), and there are far too many storylines happening at the same time. I began tuning out after a while.

The Never-Ending Cycle
Edge of Tomorrow- holy shit i love this movie. I remember seeing this movie back when it came out back in 2014 and back then i loved it. You take groundhogs day and flipping it 10 fold. The never ending cycle of repeating the same day over and over again, its fantasic and puts a new spin every time tom cruise charcter dies. Plus its a sci-fi movie which is a plus, with aliens. Hmm "War of the Worlds" and "Oblivion". Tom cruise likes to do sci-fi movie that has aliens in them.

The plot: When Earth falls under attack from invincible aliens, no military unit in the world is able to beat them. Maj. William Cage (Tom Cruise), an officer who has never seen combat, is assigned to a suicide mission. Killed within moments, Cage finds himself thrown into a time loop, in which he relives the same brutal fight -- and his death -- over and over again. However, Cage's fighting skills improve with each encore, bringing him and a comrade (Emily Blunt) ever closer to defeating the aliens.

The time loop is excellent, the plot is fanatasic, the sci-fi is phenonmemal and overall a epic movie.
