I am not a Tom Cruise fan at all, but on a whim I decided to rewatch this movie. I was pleasantly surprised by the rewatch.
I remembered that the movie started with a bang and was doing great until Cruise and Blunt got to the farm house then it stalled.
That was not my experience this time around. This was a really fun movie. The production values were top notch, the action was spectacular and the movie did a really good job of sticking to its logic. I also really loved the mech suits. I list this as the best use of a mech suit in a movie with District 9 and Avatar as a close second and third.
I’m gonna be “that guy” and point out that 2000 was technically the end of the 20th Century.
The 21st didn’t start until January 1, 2001.
And yes, people hated it when “that guy” pointed this out 25 years ago, too.
That’s valid, but I prefer to use 0-indexing even though there’s no year 0. If somebody asks me about “the 2010s”, I’m gonna include 2010 in that, not 2020
