Summary
Reviewers say 'The Tomorrow War' is an entertaining sci-fi action film with impressive CGI and strong performances, especially from Chris Pratt and JK Simmons. However, critics note plot holes, clichés, and a lack of originality. Described as a fun, popcorn-style movie, it has flaws like sentimentality, predictable twists, and a lengthy runtime. Despite mixed opinions, it serves as a decent summer blockbuster for escapist entertainment.
Featured reviews
Forget logic, enjoy the action.
The logic behind main story movements in this is completely ridiculous, though these shortcuts are designed to make the film as satisfying and entertaining as possible. If you want entertainment and feel good action, have a ride with this!
The fighting sequences are brilliant and believable. The creature design is impeccable. Aspects of these creatures and even parts of the story are derived from a number of past sci-fi classics, but I must say these are some of the most frighting creatures I've seen in a while. There was no expense spared with the creature CGI and sound design.
The wasted opportunity to have a more innovative and believable story made this a bit boring for me (apart from individual action sequences).
Worth a look if you like alien action blockbusters.

Sit Back & Relax, your weekend popcorn entertainer is here!!
Nothing fancy here, no wow factors, no unexpected scenes, infact we have seen this all many times in many movies but you know what, its still managed to keep my interest for over 2 hours.
So get some popcorn, get your gang together, sit back and relax on your couch and enjoy some brainless action because we all need some entertainment in these times.
Much Love to you people.💙

Is what the trailer says
An action movie! Aliens, things blowing up, people with guns shooting em from endless magazines. On a Sunday afternoon, with a glass of wine, this is perfect. And Chris Pratt is cool as usual. I watched this for some no nonsense fun. It delivers. Plot holes the size of the 7 oceans aside.
Entertaining. That's all I needed.
I like the actors, aliens, CGI, music, and action. Also, I am glad there were no social issues forced into the movie. Every time I try to watch some series Holyweirdos put some agenda in it. Even with plot holes this movie is entertaning.
Better Than Expected
Based on the trailer and fairly uninspired title I half expected another movie that spent all its budget on actors and cranked out another poorly produced pandemic stop-gap. What we got instead was a pretty well-made action flick with heart and self-aware humor. The story is rather formulaic but it was thoroughly entertaining.
Did you know
- TriviaChris Pratt said the shooting location for the winter scenes in Russia was on a glacier in Iceland that had never been filmed on before. He added that a few weeks prior to shooting, a couple bodies had been discovered down a fissure. They appeared to be preserved from about 1940. According to Icelandic reporter Ingunn Lára Kristjánsdóttir, there is no evidence that a couple was found on the glacier Skálafellsjökull, where Pratt was filming. In her reporting, she spoke with the chief of police in the South of Iceland and a police officer in the town of Höfn, where the crew stayed during filming. Both denied any knowledge with Pratt's version of events.
- GoofsThis movie is a classic example of 'the grandfather paradox'. Dan brings the toxin from future to kill the creatures in present time, preventing the circumstances in the future that allow the toxin to be discovered.
