The movie was great, checked all the boxes of action/thrill and adventure. The cinematography and visuals were near perfect with a few jumpy moments in there and acting was just great adding a little humor and light comedy at times.
The idea of the movie was very good had some genuinity and it made made think of reverse terminator somehow ;) Now the plot is where the movie falls short,,, starts with the explanation of time travel , they tried to but all I got is "time is like a river flows only in one direction" !! Like come on!!
The other thing, about which most people were furious, is that how a just a bunch of people have to save whole humanity instead of asking the UN for more troops and uniting countries to get more soldiers and kill aliens in Russia .. While I do agree to a point where we know how politics work .. I mean we've seen the UN struggling 50+ years trying to solve some global issues without a single progress ,, so this how politics work and how action movies do, One man gotta save humanity.
The other issue is saving Muri and few people in the future ,, the movie did somehow bring the idea of going to future again to save the people in the future !! I mean thankfully they didn't stress on that idea,, I mean If you kill aliens in the present , then they seize to exist in the future, right !! No problems there so why try to milk it.. but again this all comes due to the lack of explanation of their idea on time travel.
The cast were great, from Chris to Sam Richardson and J. K. Simmons , they were a very good trio ... Yvonne Strahovski was great too, she's #1 ranked on IMDB this week .. applaud.
Anyway, despite all the little couple of holes in the plot the movie is very good, very entertaining and definitely very recommended.
