Wait? Oblivion was "only" 124 minutes long?
Time is relative indeed then as it felt to me like it lasted 3 hours!
I spent €4.50 only on top of my CineWorld card to watch Oblivion in IMAX and I am glad I did so, because if I had watched it on a regular screen it would have been even more unbearable.
The makers of Oblivion created a shameless purpuree of sci-fi movies that has no shade of originality nor beauty of execution. Watching Oblivion is like watching a mosaic of, Matrix, the Island, Armageddon, Wall-e (yes, I found some similarities there as well) and who knows what else. As a friend of mine put it " the only bearable part was the cute russian girl", and since I am not really interested in that, you can guess the 2 hours and 4 minutes ride wasn't worth it.
In fact, although I am a Tom Cruise fan, or at least I was at the time of Cocktail and Far & Away I couldn't help to notice the desperate attempts to move the audience with random introduction of kids in the picture or with very obvious turns of plot.
I suggest you not to watch this movie, unless you are someone who gets some sort of pleasure from wasting time watching bad movies, because this is one of them.
Too negative review?
The score was great, it's a pity though that I will have to associate it with those images...
