Critics Consensus: Gripping, well-acted, funny, and clever, Edge of Tomorrow offers entertaining proof that Tom Cruise is still more than capable of shouldering the weight of a blockbuster action thriller.

Edge of Tomorrow is the perfect mix of blustering action and sci-fi thinky nonsense that is best enjoyed without picking at it too much.
This is one of my favorite movies of the year so far.
Edge of Tomorrow is a decent time waster, but if you're the sort of person who watches a movie every day, you should probably look for something better.
The 51-year-old Cruise clearly relishes playing the flawed hero - one who gets to be smarmy, duplicitous, exasperated, intimidated, bad-ass and wise.
The conceit may sound constricting, but Liman (like Harold Ramis before him) gets exceptional mileage out of it, presenting his ever-revolving tale with visual style, narrative velocity, and a wonderful dose of dark humor.
This is a movie about Tom Cruise working very, very hard to please the world.
This was smart and engaging, and as much as we love to hate his personal dramas, Tom Cruise knows how to helm a blockbuster.
Edge of Tomorrow manages to be smart and entertaining in equal measure; it's a sweet blend of smart sci-fi ideas and spectacular action spectacle.
You have to let those bland trailers fall back into the recesses of your mind and give Edge of Tomorrow the fair shake it deserves.
It doesn't really do anything more than live up to the "Starship Troopers meets Source Code" tag, let alone better either of those films, but it is undeniably enjoyable throughout.
A brutal indictment of the disposability of life.
Its visual universe has a strange brutal ugliness that tips into beauty, a complete, edgy and consistent world of ruin, cement and steel and harsh landscapes.
Doug Limon steers a pretty good script (think what if Groundhog Day married Starship Troopers) with exciting visuals and dynamic storytelling skills to make this one a hella summer thrill ride from start to finish. Insectoid alien hordes want terra firma for their own yet again ... and this time they can't lose cause they've got a secret weapon. Only they - and we, too - failed to consider the surprising charisma between Tom Cruise and Emily Blunt that enlivens this sci- fi love-in way past expectations and then some. Me likey.
Super Reviewer
Adequate as this type of junk goes.
Groundhogs Day should be proud to have had such a gritty reboot.
"Edge of Tomorrow" is a sci-fi "Groundhog Day" which is thrilling and smart. Cruise and Blunt are excellent.
