The sci-fi actioner storms the shores of Ultra HD with an awesome-looking HEVC H.265 encode that appears to have been struck from the 2K digital intermediate.

Warner Home Video brings Doug Liman's Edge of Tomorrow to Ultra HD Blu-ray as a two-disc combo pack with a Digital Copy code. For me, it makes the ending of Edge of Tomorrow all the more powerful and satisfying.įor a more in-depth take on the film, check out our review of the 2014 Blu-ray HERE. It also makes Cage's training montage all the funnier because, with each comical failure, we witness his growth and start rooting for him, not only to succeed in destroying the Omega, the Alpha and the Mimics but also to learn some altruistic humility. It surprisingly adds a character arc that was unexpected during my first watch, but with each repeated visit, it is impressive to see how it continuously pays off throughout the course of the story. In throwing us into the middle of the story with little snippets of Cruise's Cage already in promo mode, it allows the A-list actor to just do his smug but charming shtick he is famous for, and Cruise's go-to act works to the plot's benefit. More importantly, the frantically-edited montage effectively throws audiences into the fray, immediately establishing the pace and proper frame of mind for this sci-fi berzerker, making excellent use of the time-loop premise into a memorable action spectacular.Īt the same time, we are also introduced to Major William Cage (Tom Cruise) doing the rounds with various media outlets, as though selling the war like a press junket.

One of my favorite aspects of Doug Liman's Edge of Tomorrow is its opening sequence where The Bourne Identity director drops a massive exposition dump without ever feeling like an excess of tactless explanation.
