Oblivion

Oblivion

1st, let me say that if you are not a sci-fi fan, don't go see this (even if you LOVE Tom Cruise, lol).

Now, that I got that out of the way, let me tell you about the movie.  The movie takes place in the future, on partially destroyed (post-apocalyptic if you will) Earth.  Tom Cruise plays Jack Harper, a technician that fixes robot droids and constantly wonders about things that were, while his partner Victoria, wishes he would focus on the present.  Anyway, Jack soon discovers that his wondering isn't in vain as the movie unfolds. 

To tell you more would truly ruin it for you.  The special effects are great and very realistic, great plot, and Morgan Freeman is featured as well.  If you enjoyed the Matrix, Independence Day, and/or the Terminator (there isn't a whole lot of action, though, so make sure that's not what you're expecting), you will enjoy this.  If this is another preview of the other movies that are coming out this year (Iron Man 3, Star Trek, etc), this will be a good year for movies!!

Rating:  4/5 stars
