{4.5\/5} “Are you an effective team?”<\/p>\n

Oblivion<\/strong>, released in 2013<\/p>\n

In the war with the Scavengers, humans defeated them but bombed the Earth so much they have to leave. Jack is a drone maintenance tech who goes out every day to fix drones that have failed or been attacked by remaining Scavengers. In 2 weeks he and his partner, who works communication keeping an eye on him, will head up to the Tet — and then humanity will make the move to Titan. Meanwhile, Jack has dreams about a time before the war, a time he can’t remember.<\/p>\n

This movie is very rewatchable, with its combination of arresting visuals and a delightful story.<\/p>\n

Tom Cruise and the special effects make you believe you’re in the future.<\/p>\n

Most of it is great, there’s a part near the end that’s slightly less than great, and the very end is brilliant.<\/p>\n

Stars Andrea Riseborough and Olga Kurylenko. Directed by Joseph Kosinski (Only the Brave<\/strong>).<\/p>\n
