Shannon’s Thoughts:
I was interested in this one more than the other sci-fi movie that came out the same time, which was After Earth. My husband and I guessed the twist ending. Not quite guessing everything that happens but enough of the story. I was just hoping it wasn’t a twist I had seen before such as Matrix and I got what I hoped but, there was some elements of the Matrix and 2001:Space Odyssey.
It was okay. The ships, motorcycles and other tech was cool. There were some big explosions, some over the top. I was very reminded of Tom Cruise’s Top Gun character with all the flying was done in Oblivion. If I am being honest I would have to say I am glad that I did not pay $10 for a movie ticket. I wasn’t really surprised by anything that happened but did enjoy the characters.
