The Tomorrow War (Amazon Prime)
 

So this came out today. Some pretty big "Well, that's dumb" logic things but overall decent. Also, it definitely had no business being PG-13 at all. When Amazon bought the rights to this during 2020 they might as well have amped up the violence... because as is its a movie about giant aliens with claws ripping everyone to shreds but can't actually show anything. Or a drop of blood. Very weird. To it's credit, there were a few big things near the end where it seemed like the movie was going to end with a big "stay tuned for the rest of the trilogy!" but it never does. It has a beginning a middle and an end.



They actually have a "worldwide draft." Just think about that for a few moments. There's no way.

Just finished it and overall liked it.

I noticed that, too, with the first female. It definitely seems like a window for a sequel if they wanted to pursue that, but I do like that it is generally a wrapped up story.

I feel like the logistics and details of getting Chris Pratt to the future were definitely glossed over. There's no way people randomly showing up in the middle of a soccer game and going, "We need you to fight a war for us. Oh, and we're from the future," would be met with, "Ok, sounds cool." Let alone be willing to do the worldwide draft thing.

THAT SAID, I did enjoy the "normal people" soldiers that were on the initial strike team.
