Everything Wrong With Oblivion In 12 Minutes Or Less 

Y'know, love it or hate it, this is a fucking beautifully shot and animated movie. You can take half the screenshots from this entire film and they'd make stunning desktop backgrounds.

Tom Cruise plays Jack Reacher, a man living on the Edge of Tomorrow as the world faces Oblivion. A flashback in the beginning shows us he was Born on the Fourth of July, foreshadowing the Legend he would become. For Jack is no simple maintenance tech, but a man, a warrior, whose honor is Far and Away greater than those of other men, making him like The Last Samurai on earth. He starts Losin' It when he discovers there's actually a War of the Worlds going on, as aliens are draining the planet of water leaving deserts and Vanilla Skies. He will need All the Right Moves, and the Endless Love of his female warrior companion, his Valkyrie, to succeed. With only a Few Good Men to help, he will engage in some Risky Business and take the fight to the heart of the enemy. Out of all the guns that have tried and failed, he will be the Top Gun that will succeed in defeating The Outsiders. Unfortunately, there will be Collateral damage in what everyone had classifed as a Mission: Impossible. Though not all will know his name, he will be remembered as the one who saved the water, and life, of the planet. All will honor the ultimate sacrifice of the Rain Man.

Folks, there are no aliens. The Tet is a giant AI moving through space.

I actually LOVE the soundtrack in this movie! It matches the tone of the movie perfectly.

Not gonna lie, I freakin loved this movie.

"Vicka is a dick-a to Jack-a". Pure gold.

You usually do a good job pointing out the little things, but you missed a good one. If my memory is correct, the song that plays when Jack starts the record player in his makeshift house is Ramble On from Led Zeppelin II. That is the third song on side two, but he drops the needle on the outside if the record. Since that it is one of my all time favorite songs on one of my favorite albums, this bothered me greatly when I saw it lol.

Watched the movie just now, it was great , yes it has some plot holes but tbh I figured out the story pretty well. And you don't get bored, you get glued to the screen for the entire movie, which is awesome!

So many critics didn't like this film, but I found it so inspirational in so many ways, the love story, the struggle for survival and the struggle to find one's self, with the music setting the emotional tone to perfection. All these things drown out the plot flaws, and leave you with a sense of loss and wonder.

10:51 - I don't think this is a fault at all. The TET sensed that Harper didn't answer the previous question honestly, so he has to answer the next one honestly. And it is the kind of answer that the TET would expect to hear - it has fooled the clones into thinking that they are saving humanity, even though they're really doing the opposite. Harper's answer is therefore honest, but he knows more than the TET knows he knows. It's hard to defend the mistakes and inconsistencies in this film. But it's still quite watchable. I enjoyed it.

"I'm ordering you to *pull out*"

The only thing i wonder about:WHAT HAPPENED TO THE DOG!!!!!

So Jack #52 shows up at the end. What happens when the other 50 Jacks also show up at the house?

I found it funny that Tom Cruise, the Scientologist, played a character that was made by aliens.

The one comment that actually made me laugh "It's like after inception EVERYBODY had to use that noise in their movie"

Even with it's flaws, I loved this movie, too! The last 20 years have been conspicuously lacking in narrative quality, despite all the CGI. I count this as one of the few exceptions! Loved it!

0:54 This isn't the Elder Scrolls IV +1 Sin

"Vicka is a dick-a to Jack-a" is one of my favorite Cinema Sins lines! X-D

Great movie. Way underrated. Minor plot inconsistencies? Sure. But stunning visuals, great music, and a compelling story.

I like how Sally can detect an increase in respiration and heart rate but can't detect the massive fuckn nuke in the back of the ship

"-I am Jack Harper" "Really? I thought you were Jack Reacher.." Killed me x)

I think you guys need to start adding sins for main protagonist name "Jack"

I would remove a sin or two for how terrifying or at the very least intimidating they made the drones.

The folding bike reminds me more of the cyclone bike/battle armor from Robotech: New Generation.

Although very sinful sins were pointed out in this video I shall watch this movie tonight! :)

A tet inside a tet? No, it's a tête-à-tête. :D

I really liked Jack's weapons in this movie. they looked pretty cool.

I absolutely love this movie and will continue to do so, but i couldn't help but laugh at the huge gaping plotholes especially the flight recorder bit.🤣🤣🤣

PLEASE do "Everything wrong with Human Centipede". :D

Missing the obvious "Is not an Elder Scrolls movie" sin

Another sin for Tom Cruise playing another character called "Jack"

i really liked the movie it was beautifuly filmed

You missed a sin. When Jack #49 goes into Jack #52's house and meets Vika #52, she didn't notice the big 49 on Jack's jacket's shoulders when she was looking right at him.

9:37 The food source is Soylent Green.

"You named it after the Vietnamese new year?" *greatly appreciated*

Ohhhhh bleeeeeep Cinemasins did one for Oblivion. Let me grab my proverbial seatbelt and literal Doritos, cos this shit's about to get INTENSE. I look forward to him roasting movies more than I look forward to seeing the movie he roasted.

"Vicka-is-a-dicka-to-Jacka" best Cinema Sins quote eva!

The very first sin should be "mistaking it with The Elder Scrools 4". Which I did. Shame on me.

9:38-“cupcake in a cup, wait what”. *dings*

I think if people truly understood this movie, it wouldn’t have been rated at like a 50 on rotten tomatoes, and this movie was truly ahead of its time.

Not even one mention to the kingslayer? I feel that would be a sin

Ahhh, I hate the 'slamming butt of the gun into someones forehead and they black out' thing. It always seems to magically make them instantly black out, but then wake up totally fine a while later. That kind of a blow to your head would most likely be pretty devastating depending on just how hard it was. But still, they make it seem like knocking someone out is just so easy-just hit them on the forehead with you gun, and 'boom'! they're unconscious! Like this guy said in the video, it isn't some 'consciousness button', nor does one exist in that way.

"i thought you were jack reacher" FUCKING DIED XXX

Ha "Tower of Nope" that made my night

What is the deal with so many action movies naming the protagonist JACK. Did market research have a panel team of experts all vote on it? Jack Harper, Jack Reacher, Jack Ryan, Jack Bauer (24), Jack Shephard (LOST), Samurai JACK, Jack the Giant Killer, Captain Jack Sparrow, Jack Napier ( antagonist aka the JOKER), Jack Crawford (Hannibal series), Jack Frost....any others?

Ok my favorite Cinema Sins yet, the Tony Romo and Houston Texans jokes both stung a little and were hilarious (And I am a fan of both teams)

I made the bubble craft drone and house in the clouds in mesh. Good project to complete. Loved oblivion.

for sin 2, it actually would (astrophysicist here) especially if it was blown up slowly! the moon is very far away and how it exploded also pushed it towards us, making it appear bigger and the pieces even closer then they would have been. but yes, it does seem quite weird doesnt it!

Damn, even your ads are funny as hell :D

"Vica ordered jack to pull out" 😝😂😂 lol

Unapologetically love this movie. Beautifully shot, chopped, scored, acted and cast with stunning visuals and a real sense of place in a postapocalyptic world with unique technology. (Unsure how creator-inserted jokes about Tony Romo are the movie's fault.)

"Vika orders Jack to pull out" **Dirty Movie Sin Counter: 1**

"Towers of Nope" that got me XD

Sin 44: "Vika orders Jack to pull out" #FuckNo lol

Please tell me I’m not the only one who thought the drones are cute I mean look at them *THERE SO CHUBBY*

This must of been stellar to see in the theatre.

Thing that bugged me most: He's flying to the alien-space-pyramid saying that he's delivering that cryobox, posing as Tech #49, but his ship was destroyed and he's now using the ship of dude #52 with a BIGASS orange marking on it saying "52" - HOW can the drones and all the entire surveillance system on the pyramid NOT spot that?!

It May be bullshit, but I still love this movie

One of the best visual movies

Dear cinemasins... I luv your vids, there awesome. Keep up there good work 👍👍👍 I can't look at movies anymore and thinking about cinemasinsthe same time. 😬

This was a damn good movie

I feel like, despite the fact that it's copying Hans Zimmer, M83 did a great job on the soundtrack.

Ok, the "sky tower" with the huge window and a landing pad just below really is a cool pad. Add a naked hottie and the heated sky pool and I could totally see being happy, for at least 2 days. Then I'd be on the dual sport with a rifle slung on my shoulder for the rest of time. I guess that's their point huh? Perfect man cave with options

Here's another thing wrong that comes to mind. What about the other Jack clones that are flying around? After the Tet was destroyed you would think that they would go looking for answers. At some point they would eventually run into Julia again. That would be a bit confusing for her and the new daughter, don't you think?

They name the huge mothership the "Tet", presumably short for "Tetrahedron", a 4-sided 3-d shape... yet, with the cropped corners, it technically has 8 faces, making it an Octahedron, meaning it should be called the "Oct". [Ding!!] 1:18 Super-high-tech alien technology is great for everything except screens, which are limited to GameBoy-style greyscale dot matrices. [Ding!!] The drone leaves immediately, rather than help out a friendly trooper, or even play bodyguard. Drones are dicks. [Ding!!] Was New York buried in, like, a day...? Because, rebar-inforced concrete crumbles kinda quickly without maintenance. They definitely wouldn't last long enough for sediment to build up and bury them like that. And why the hell are there so many traces of buildings left after a war that destroyed the world as we know it...? Shouldn't it just be all rubble and wasteland? [Ding!!] Considering it was able to blow up the fucking Moon, shouldn't the Tet be able to hit the one rebellious Tech with an orbital strike of some kind when it was RIGHT OVER HIS FUCKING HEAD as he took off in the aircraft that it somehow can't shut down...? Buuuuut, we wanna do a dogfight! [Ding!!] 7:27 Or felt the excruciating pain of being shot by a high-powered firearm!! [Ding!!] Nuclear stuff has to glow so we know it's nuclear cliché. Buuut, at least it's not sickly green, so only half a sin! [Ding!] 9:01 Why the hell would the Oct-err-Tet come to Earth to suck up all the water? Isn't there more water on Europa, which by astronomical standards is practically right next door to us...? As well as it, like... being a whole fucktonne easier, as there's no indigenous lifeforms to put up a resistance...? [Ding!!] Well-known and outspoken advocate of alien cult $cientology is in a movie with aliens. Go figure! [Ding!!]

11:33 Cruise drops in a Scientology reference. "If we have souls, they're made of the love we share." One of the many many reasons I really don't like him. That and another reason is every character he plays is the same damn person, just maybe named differently sometimes with a slightly changed back plot.

Cant wait for the sin counter to explode after Topgun 2

I live for a CinemaSins sigh. Makes me blissfully smile every time 💕💕

Not sure if that was sarcasm or stupidity, but Tet is obviously short for Tetrahedron.

I liked Oblivion. I thought it was a solid film.

Great review. Funny moments in your comments! LOL! I laughed out loud a few times.

When they're powering up the captured drone while it's being restrained, Jack Harper tells everyone to back away because it's "nervous." A few seconds later, he says: "It's just a machine."

Lets be honest, this was an AMAZING movie, straight up stands out from all the other crap in the last 10 years. The soundtrack throughout the film alone was unreal.

The thing about the hut is the only thing that made sense in this movie. 1. Why does Vikka not know that Jack went off screen so often to build the place? 2. How did he build the place and found the place? Easy: The clones are clearly not 50 years old, so every few years they are not an efficient team anymore and they get replaced with new clones. So a few clone generations of Jack-49 have all wandered off their path and found the lake each building another portion of the hut and collecting more stuff.

Oblivion is one of my all time favourite movies. It's flawless. Great acting, amazing story, fantastic special effects, and it has heart and soul.

One of my favourite Sci-fi films.

"Vica orders Jack to pull out."

Man I fucking love the music in this, great visuals as well

Well done, "Everything Wrong..." You demolished this dog.

the ship was the coolest thing, I loved the little thing

Alien Logic: We know there's hundreds of planets around us that we could go to instead and have a much easier time, but fuck Earth.

I still fucking loved this movie. Had amazing CG and cinematography

well, in all fairness, it's not like he could do his own stunts for two different onscreen characters simultaneously

LOLz. The don't you smoke crack bit had me in stitches for hours!

This is the house that Jack built.

your audible ad is so much better than all the others

Tom cruise will never turn down a script that has a motorcycle and use of a some type of cable/wire

0:11 huh ? what is wrong with that image ? the red core ? the debris staying still ? ALSO : You forgot about the part where the first contact shuttle was approaching the tet, they tried but couldn't reverse from the tet and their shuttle was sucked towards the tet, BUT they detached the large part of the shuttle with survivors init AND IT DID NOT GET SUCKED towards the tet... which is weird.

This is the house that Jack built. DING

Do Skyrim next. oh wait...

Lol Tom Cruise is always on a motorcycle I swear 🤦‍♂️🤣🤣🤣

The Tet can detect lying but in the final flight to the Tet, when Jack tells them that it's his wife in the cryo-pod, it doesn't instantly know he's lying and blow him out of the sky.

Star wars episode one. To me, that holds the record for max sins

you forgot the sin where jack is in the "sinkhole" and when he is jumping the gap in the fight, his gun is nowhere to be seen, then in the next shot, his gun is right in his hand. I think CinemaSins REALLY inspired me to nitpick the HELL out of movies. JUST LIKE YOU!!!!!

Thank You!!! This makes me feel not so alone in a seemingly ever-increasingly nonsensical world!

As soon as I watched this movie I wanted to see the "Everything wrong with Oblivion" video

It's one of those movies when you watch it you HAVE TO see it again, and when you see it the second time you realize it's actually dumb.

Still love this film and M83 did a phenomenal job with the soundtrack. It is so beautiful!

Great movie with a superb soundtrack as well!

"He Didn't Die?! INCONCEIVABLE!!" Love the Princess Bride reference
