Fast Cap is a re-cap of many movies that I've seen that I have't written about in a year.
Edge of Tomorrow
Holy sch-nikes. THIS! This is what a summer movie should be. Trailers were "meh," but the actual product...HOLY CRAP, DUDE! Pew! Pew! Pew! (Alien roars)! Tom Cruise sprinting. Emily Blunt looking super hot doing her push-ups, and then being a complete badass when fighting. Then, they add in elements of exhaustion into the characters, and Tom Cruise's 50 (50!!) year-old acting face emotes so well. Again, that guy is over 50 years old. If you have a time machine, please go back to when this movie opened and give it a crap ton of more money, because it deserved such a better showing that what it got.
What makes this movie work:
The story is pretty solid. The action sequences were practical effects. The depths of sadness that this movie manages to tread into are subtle, but effective.
What makes this movie weak:
A bit of the way the third act concludes, but who cares? If you find one hair in your dish at Panda Express, you're not going to say the entire meal was ruined.
When to watch:
IMMEDIATELY. Now. Just stop reading and go.
