The film is adapted from "ALL you need is kill" by Japanese writer Hiro Sakurasaka. The background of the story is set in the future earth. Aliens launched a full-scale invasion war. Because of his role as a major in the media army, Cage (Tom) aroused some public anger and attracted hostility from the army. He was sent to the beach of the landing battle. Before he died, he was stained with the blood of the alien Alpha, and had the ability to restart time, but what awaited him did repeat the inevitable death battle every day. Having never received any military training, he was undoubtedly a suicidal operation on the front line. In the near-death battle again and again, he accidentally found the "heavy metal bitch" Rita, who had a similar experience with him. The phrase "when you wake up, come and find me" brought the movie into the theme, Kai Qi found out that everything is an alien conspiracy, they have already been ambushed on the beach, waiting for the ending of all the soldiers will be annihilation. With each awakening, Cage's experience of war deepened. Through further understanding of aliens, Cage gradually became clear about his inner thinking, slowly took responsibility on his shoulders, and began to stay away from the fragile and timid Own. Under Rita's devil training and repeated shooting, Cage's ability improved by leaps and bounds during the time and space travel, and the two fought side by side, finally showing a glimmer of victory in this hopeless war. Even though every time Rita meets Cage, it is a new beginning, but in Cage's time and space, he gradually develops feelings for Rita, and in countless repetitions, he gradually discovers that the enemy is always one step faster than them. Better yet, everything seems to be under the control of an alien brain. Cage is faced with a painful choice, he does not want to keep witnessing Rita die in front of him, and finally he chooses to go it alone, with the determination of "if I don't know you", under the scientific guidance of Dr. Carter. Go down, go straight to Huanglong, and successfully reach the shape of the brain address that appeared in the fantasy. When he was ambushed by Alpha, he suddenly realized that everything was the plan of the aliens, and their actions were as early as it expected, no matter how much they were. Efforts are just pawns at the mercy. Alpha has made a decision to save Cage's life and prevent him from having a chance to restart the time. In the nick of time, Cage still succeeded in "suicide" . The time reset, Cage reopened another story line, tried to convince the general to hand over the alien sensor, and found out the real address of the brain. After countless attempts, the stubborn general finally agreed to cooperate, but it was a pity that the encirclement and suppression came. The plan fell through again. Time is approaching step by step, the deadline is approaching, all the soldiers are on the line, and Cage, who suffered an accidental blood transfusion, realizes that he has lost the ability to restart the time. In the end, he can only desperately recruit Team J to go to London, the brain's nest, for a last-ditch effort. In countless births and deaths, Cage has been unable to let go of his feelings for Rita. In the face of despair, in the face of love, and in the face of human survival, the tall Cage is ready to sacrifice...
The story is compact and pointless, sharp visual bombardment, end-to-end love, ups and downs of the plot, and extremely cunning aliens are all elements that make me and other humans burst with adrenaline.
The Hollywood blockbuster that successfully combines business and sci-fi, the looming comedy elements, and Tom's hard work, make this film show enough sincerity.
When the brain was dying at the end of the film, Cage was once again given the ability to restart the time. When he met Rita again, Cage's fate seemed to have changed, and the smile at this time gave the audience more reverie. Don't be too demanding about the rationality of the plot, the fun and dripping special effects and the generous scenes, plus the endless reincarnation and uninterrupted growth, are already worth the ticket price.
However, the director's game clearance ability is too weak, and Tom has died too many times. It's hard work for Tom.
