They did defeat the aliens. The general at the end is describing the surge of energy that the omega gave off when it died, which killed the entire alien force. Him getting the blood again at the very end and resetting one final time was just luck, they won anyway, he just expected to die doing it. They have nothing to fight at the end, the aliens are already all dead when he resets. He goes to meet her again just to get to know her properly.

@nullunit День назад
@@dabreal82It did fine in box office but this was at the time when Marvel movies were having massive box offices so by comparison, from a studio perspective, it under performed. On top of that lots of folks were just hating on it because Tom Cruise was involved and iirc he had some pretty bad PR at the time from his divorce and Scientology drama. When it hit streaming and rental, people realized they slept on it and that it was better than most of the big action flicks that were coming out at the time, So, by definition, it was underrated. Same for his other movie Oblivion. It took a couple years for people to come around on it. While I agree at this point calling it "underrated" is not true because the nerdosphere has embraced it, most reactions I see from folks who had no idea it even existed, broadly it is a fair way to describe it. It was under appreciated when it came but now is widely loved.

The author of the light novel this was based off on -- Hiroshi Sakurazaka -- was an old-school gamer. Games back then (like Super Mario Brothers, Contra, Galaga, or Sonic the Hedgehog) didn't have save files, so when you died and spent all of your lives you had to start all over from the beginning. You get to the point where you'd know what to do before something happened, because you've already gone through that part before. His experiences playing those games led to him writing the novel "All You Need is Kill".

Well, no Jax, the war is over and we won. When Tom blew up the Omega all the Mimic troops froze dead like spiders. Then the Omega power reset the day even early than before, like you read on the blog. The General then mentions in his speech they detected a "large energy serge" early that morning and while it's not on your reaction you posted I remember him then saying in the movie "Russian and Chinese troops pushing through Europe unopposed" or somthing like that. So then it's just GG we won thanks to Tom, Emily and J squad. Such a great movie concept and experience. I'm so glad you enjoyed it so much, I had a feeling you would, as it's one of my favorite movies. So great to share this one with you. Fun fact, Edge of Tomorrow is often referred to as "Live. Die. Repeat." thanks to an excellent advertising poster.

Not as vulnerable as they'd be without it. It's nearly impossible to kill mimics hand-to-hand without superhuman strength, and the exoskeleton provides it.

From my understanding, this film is based on All You Need Is Kill, a Japanese science fiction light novel by Hiroshi Sakurazaka, published in 2004, with illustrations by Yoshitoshi Abe. I remember seeing it years back and thinking, "Huh, they look like Spartans from the Halo games," who themselves were inspired by the Mobile Infantry from the Starship Troopers (1988) anime, which featured power armor designs that would later inspire Halo: Combat Evolved (2001), bringing things full circle by 2004 with All You Need Is Kill. I do wish we got the power armor from the light novel or manga, as they looked amazing. However, the idea that the exo-suits in the film are prototypes still being tested is a unique concept. Humanity wasn’t fully prepared, so what we’re seeing throughout the film is essentially a large-scale field test. If they ever make a sequel, I’d love to see more advanced suits that give off Spartan vibes from Halo and, of course, All You Need Is Kill.

@flatebo1
@flatebo1 День назад
"For having no weapons, Tom Cruise has been able to survive a lot." He survived *because* he had no weapons. The Mimics have already been replaying this day for a long time. We don't know how long, but if you assume that the Mimics initially did not know about the invasion, they would have been resetting the day over and over in their attempts to perfect their response. That's why, when a soldier fires a heavy weapon at the Mimics, he is immediately killed by counterfire. The Mimics already know where he is because they have played that part of the "game" before. Cage can't figure out how to get his suit to work. So he's not any kind of threat at all. The Mimics are focusing on the soldiers who are a threat. They know exactly who those soldiers are and exactly when those soldiers need to be eliminated. The presence of the silver Mimic means that the Mimics are trying something new in that part of the game board on this playthrough, so the silver Mimics introduces a wildcard element, since its interactions with the soldiers it encounters haven't been part of any playthrough before. The Mimics don't know how any of the soldiers will react to its presence. So, while Cage would have died on every previous playthrough, this time he survives because he had the opportunity to kill a silver Mimic at the right place and time. And he only succeeded at that because, as a soldier, he's incompetent.

Yes. The Omega is killed the night before the invasion. So the reset is back 24 hours on the helicopter. But he's covered in the Omega's blood right before he dies, so Cage basically becomes the Omega for one last reset that he triggers by dying. But since the actual Omega is gone, that's the end.

@PaulSchober
@PaulSchober День назад
I have just one complaint with that analysis. IMO only the Omega is capable of resetting the day, with the alphas/Cage merely being the automatic triggers. I don't think the Omega died right at the grenade explosion. If it did, no reset would have happened when Cage died a moment later covered again in the blood. I think the Omega was on its last legs when Cage died - then the day reset to the helicopter trip - and then the Omega died, along with all its mimics. My guess is the Omega is the only being that isn't effected by its time reversing ability. I think this is how it can retain its memories (that it presumably then shares with its alphas). This would explain why Cage was able to reset the day and why the Omega wasn't "reset" back to perfect health along with everyone else. Just my take anyway.
@mannygee005
@mannygee005 День назад
all good stuff. Entirely possible that Cage took over the reset point of the Alpha he killed. That Alpha's reset point was set by the Omega. There is no explanation about the Omega but the Omega could have had a reset point as well which was a day before the Alpha's reset point. Cage took a reset one last time using the Omega's reset point. Remember the original Alpha that Cage killed?, we assume that Alpha never came back to life again, and therefore the Omega also never comes back either but Cage did a final reset one last time but there was no battle left to fight and all the Mimics on Earth were incapacitated.

39:46 The last line in the article is not correct. The Omega couldn't reset the day in the end because it was already dead. It was Cage who reset the day after he got the blood of the Omega in him, essentially making him a human Omega. The aliens stay dead in the end because they're all one organism that's a part of the dead Omega (15:03) and Cage is not. But it makes me wonder; if Cage ever have kids, and he resets time, will his kids also know that?

Everything MSG Farrell says, like "Battle is the great redeemer, the fiery crucible in which the only true heroes are born." Or when they are caught playing cards: Farrell: "And what is my definitive position on the concept of fate?" J Squad: "Through readiness and discipline, we are masters of our fate." then Farrell says: "You might call that notion ironic. But trust me, you'll come around." Through his death, Cage is literally "reborn" into the hero, thanks to battle. He is, indeed, redeemed. Also, he only becomes the hero because he trains... readiness and discipline are now what he is about, and this makes him a great soldier; and more to the point, allows him to control his own fate!

The ending, although brief and somewhat ambiguous, is meaningful to me. If you think about it, Cage went up to Rita in full officer uniform (a Major) and yet she still addressed him exactly the same way as when he was only a private. I think it made him smile and giggle because it signified her genuine character. She is being a sass to him whether he's at the bottom or her superior. 😂 ♥

37:00 so, you always reset to one day prior to your time of death when you first acquired the power. Cage's initial time of death was 24 hours after he woke up on the duffel bags, and it no longer changes after that, regardless of how quickly he dies. But then he lost the power, and reacquired it when they made the Louvre attack a couple hours before the final battle was supposed to be launched, and before his initial time of death. This made him wake up a couple hours before the first reset point, which landed him in the helicopter for his meeting with the general. And since the Omega's death was permanent across time, it died the instant Cage reset back.

Basic rundown is the movie takes place over 3 days. day 1 movie intro , day 2 base , day 3 beach. Cage got the power on day 3 and reset back to day 2 most of the movie. When he lost the power it was morning of day 2 and they kill the omega on day 2 night. So when he gets reset with the omega blood it resets to day 1 when the movie starts. But since the omega was dead the mimics had no "brain" and couldn't fight back.

My theory of the ending: it was the same "reset effect" when he died on the beach and in Paris. However, he died earlier in Paris than on the beach. It was nighttime in Paris well before the beach assault was to begin. It's all relative to the moment he died covered in alien blood as to which day starts over.

He must have given the General his enthusiasm for filming the assault. So, he went to go find her. He found her doing exactly what she was doing before, but he was still a Major (mid-level officer rank) with an untarnished record. She was just a Sergeant, so he WAY outranked her. So, my favorite part of the movie is when they meet up at the end. She rudely asks a superior officer what he wants... and he just laughs. - How do you explain briefly to someone that you want a romantic relationship with them because you 2 have been through all this stuff together and you remember it all? - Not possible. So, he smiles and laughs. - Brilliant ending! Using my imagination, I can picture them living happily ever after. Officers are not allowed to date Enlisted, but they could make it work. - He could get out or she could get out or possibly they might get a special pass when they explain everything. Happy ending. :)

To give some clarity: Emily Blunt's character Rita was a soldier who killed a blue mimic (alpha) earlier and got covered in its blood & discovered that her death kept resetting the day... When an alpha is killed, the brain (omega) controlling all mimics restarted the day so that the alpha survives. But after that, it was Rita who kept resetting the day... She tried to convince her commanders in her 24 hr loop but nobody believed her - the omega somehow feeds the disbelief indirectly ... She was either put in a psyche ward or dissected alive... So, she met Dr. Carter and had the visions that put the omega at Verdun... However, she was lured to Verdun and although she won the battle there... she was injured and given a blood transfusion, which allowed time to continue out of her loop after she lost the power. The omega was not there... Knowing she had only 1 shot going into the next battle... she met Cage, who had the similar experience killing a blue mimic and getting covered in its blood... Rita knew when Cage exhibited the power she once had - the ability to anticipate the incoming attacks... Like Rita, Cage had the visions that put the omega in a dam in Germany... Once there alone, he realized it was a trap - the mimics sensed that he had the alpha's power to restart the day and wanted to take the power back, the same way they did for Rita at Verdun. Because of his involvement w/ Rita during her time loop, Dr. Carter designed and built a device to track the omega and delivered what he knew to his superiors... Unfortunately, they thought he was crazy and seized the device and put him in a technical position. Cage and Rita were able to retrieve Dr. Carter's device and use it on Cage to locate the omega's actual location in Paris, France within the Louvre... However, Cage is injured and loses his power after being given a blood transfusion. Cage, Rita and J Squad have 1 shot to take down the omega in Paris. When Cage finally destroys the omega in the end, he absorbs the omega's blood before he died and this time, he took the omega's power when he restarted the day... As a result of Cage restarting the day after the omega was dead, an energy surge in Paris indicated that the omega died at its location without the power that Cage now has... and without an omega controlling the mimics, the entire mimic army flatlined, giving humanity a victory over the alien invasion. Cage had the alpha's connection to the omega and could access its ability to restart time... but Cage being human w/ no connection to the mimic horde made it impossible for the omega to figure out who was restarting time without its knowledge. That was why it sent out fake visions to lure out the human who gained access to its power. The same thing when Cage absorbed the omega's blood in the end... he had no connection to the mimic horde and took the omega's power after killing it... So, the omega is dead when Cage restarted time and the mimics have no connection to him, so they crash and burn. In the end, J-Squad r alive again and Cage has to explain to Rita what they did to end the mimic horde.

This movie is soooooo underrated. It's amazing. It shows off some amazing character growth. It touches on the horrors of war, the skill gained by repetition, and how deeply war buddies can bond. As far as the ending goes, when Cage kills the Omega he gets covered in its blood. The Omega is the one that resets the day and learns what humanity does. So the more they fight the more the Omega can learn and counter it which is how they are utterly dominating mankind. When the Omega dies Cage gets its power one last time but since the Omega is dead the day resets to Cage instead of the Omega. He resets earlier than the rest of the movie because he died earlier than he did originally. With the Omega dead the Mimics have no leadership or direction and are indeed just braindead. So the military sweeps through meeting no resistance. Cage goes to find Rita because now he has the chance to get to know her with the advantage of all the time he already has spent with her. And since her last words to him were that she wish she would know him better, they both get that chance without the threat of death hanging over them both. Hence the smile. And of course the song over the end credits is perfect for expressing that.

I always call this like a Sci-fy/Action Groundhog Day, but you haven't seen that (or at least reacted to it), so might not get the reference. This movie does the time jumping mechanic perfectly imo. It's like gaming, you fail, learn and repeat, each time getting further. Can't have a code word because she would forget it each day he dies. She wouldn't have had the conversation in her timeline. I think of it like a save in a video game. Cage first died on the beach and it reset 24hrs before that because that's when an Alpha died. It stayed at that spot until the night prior of the day of the invasion, they killed the Omega and he got the power to reset one more time (24 hrs from that point) That's why he was in the helicopter arriving again. I believe he still has the power since he has now become the Omega?

Good movie - I think what happens at the end isn't so much that Tom Cruise goes back, but that the Omega dying has an even bigger effect similar to the Alpha dying, but instead it goes back further in time while it is dying and kills all the Alphas and Mimics in the process. The general says they detected a large surge of energy and are moving into France without resistance. So the original time travel power was the Omega accidentally mistaking Tom Cruise's many deaths as a reason to reset the day (thinking he was an Alpha because of the blood). Eventually the Omega tricks him into going to the mountains to be bled out, but Tom manages to drown himself. When the Omega dies, he goes back to before he ever met the general, further than any of the other times, so I think the Omega tries to go back in time to save itself but ends up just killing all of the mimics a day or two earlier than when it died to the grenades. Was wild seeing your reaction to the first death and wake up scene. Its mind bending if you go in blind.

The death of the Omega is like dropping a stone in water. The ripples of time move away from the death at the center. Which means the death of mimics in the past and future. The death of the Omega killed the mimics through time. Cage absorbed the power from the Omega before he died thereby resetting time. So Cage reset 24 hours before the beach invasion and the mimics were already dead. The war was over. Hope that helps Jax. ✌️😉

Iirc, the moment the Omega dies, all other mimics under it die. As I understand it, when the Omega got hit with the grenades, it attempted to escape the explosion by resetting, but the explosion was too big and completely destroyed it. Everyone linked to the Omega still got reset (including Cage), but then the Omega "finished" dying after resetting, taking all the other mimics with it, leaving Cage fully reset and healed by grace of being sort of an "infected human" rather than a mimic.

Realistically, in a wartime situation it'd be pretty easy for a General to "disappear" someone they way it was done in this movie. He could have him arrested without anyone really questioning it, and it would take more than 24 hours for anyone to really realize he was missing. A public affairs officer like him would be working fairly independently, so nobody to check on with immediately. Then, when he "dies heroically" on the beach, it's too late for anyone to find out what really happened. As for the unit he gets sent to, the accusations of desertion would disgust everyone enough that they'd just immediately disregard him and anything he tries to say. They'd expect someone like him to lie. They also wouldn't worry about his lack of training, as they'd absolutely expect him to die almost immediately and stop being their problem. All in all, a totally believable set of circumstances

If you listen to the announcement, the aliens were being taken out without resistance since the Omega was gone. There was no "brain" controlling the alien army without the Omega. Also, if you think about how Tom Cruse is the only person who remembers from reset to reset what happened before, the mimics were all in the same boat. For every failed battle, the Omega could replay it as many times as needed to win. The rest of the mimics were acting as if it was all new to them every single repeat but with the Omega telling them what to do. The Omega was their advantage. Killing it and at the same time resetting the day took the aliens' advantage away.

The Omega reset the day when it died, but the Omega is still dead for good (it had one last reset). That means all the mimics are still dead/unresponsive even after the reset. Because they are a hive mind and tied to the Omega. Tom Cruise got the Omega's blood on him when he died but since he is human and not alien, he got reset but was allowed to live since his nervous system isn't tied to the Omega. Once an Omega dies, all the aliens can't function, that includes after the reset

That said, when you initially thought this was a dystopian scenario in which Cruise and Blunt were destined to fight these things forever, I actually would've loved that as an ending. There was just enough "closure" to what we got (with Cruise and Blunt finally having a successful run-through, and all the characters back alive again) that the ending still would've satisfied; yet the battle would rage on after the credits rolled.

I understood the ending to be, when he got covered in the omegas blood at the end, he took over the omega’s ability to reset the day. But, since they destroyed the omega and the mimic’s survival was dependent on the omega; the mimics were now completely gone but he’s got the ability to reset the day if he needed to.

From what I remember of the ending the Omega either died, or lost the time control ability, but...

Yeah that tacked on happy ending is so confusing and has studio interference written all over it.

@Zso-VIII
@Zso-VIII День назад
As I understand it, it did reset to before he was previously resetting, but now the military knows where the Omega is and isn't going to fall for the ploy to attack the beach, since they detected whatever energy wave it gave off from Cage blowing it up. When they were going after it towards the end of the movie and you said "The sad thing is this would be relatively easy if they had the full might of humanity behind them to attack it here" (paraphrased), well, that's exactly what's going to happen.
@nitrokid
@nitrokid 10 часов назад
Yea you might missed a bit at the end. The Omega was an omnipresent being, meaning that it existed in all timelines simultaneously. So when Cage killed it, it also dies in all timelines - past, present and future. This time Cage was touched by Omega blood, then able to returned to the point where the story begins, the aliens are now weakened (not defeated), and the chance for humanity to win is now greater, because the aliens can't reset the day anymore. Hope that helps.

The source material is "All You Need Is Kill" by Hirodhi Sakurazaka, an manga (Japanese graphic novel). One of two Sci-Fi films that Cruise made and was released back to back. The other was Oblivion (2013), also good. EoT is Cruise's 2nd film with both director Doug Liman (Knight and Day) & writer, Christopher McQuarrie (Jack Reacher, The Usual Suspects). This was at Comic-Con 2013 with the filmmakers and primary cast answering questions, showing descriptions of the film. I saw this in IMAX, which sold a lot of tickets for the format. Cruise as the reluctant hero was interesting. Emily Blunt as the baddest warrior was cool. The movie is great to watch. It's ending is considered kind of anti-climatic. Ever since, a sequel has been teased over the years. RIP indeed to Bill Paxton (Master Sergeant Farell).
@YukoValis

So here is a fun thought experiment. How many times did the day get reset on that beach before Cage got the power? The mimics reset the day when the battle doesn't go their way. That is why the blue mimic is in the front lines. Either it dies or they win. The Omega wants it to die so it can learn. So I ask again how many days got reset before he got the power? They were accurate shooting down the transports, and had mimics hiding in ambush spots. It is possible that scenario with a bumbling Cage played out a few dozen times before he killed the blue alpha mimic.
