What would happen if a person died hundreds
of times? How did he feel? I can never image a life that people die at
“tomorrow” and come back to “today” repeat and repeat. From the fiction movie Edge of Tomorrow, people can see a
repeating life. If I can have a repeating life in normal days, I would think
it’s great that I can improve from knowing my mistakes and change them.
However, for the main character major William Cage who was in a time period of
war, it wasn’t that lucky to be killed and waken up a day before in every
single day of his life that he could never go to “tomorrow” and he even cannot
choose to die.
Edge of tomorrow was talking about a war
between the aliens called Mimics and humans. Cage was accidently sent to the
war and kill a different Mimic who has a strange control of time. Each time he
has been killed can start a reset of time and he would be sent back to a day
before. After the third time he died, he met a woman called Rita, known as the
Angel of Verdun. She has the same experience during another big fight with the
Mimics and her ability lost after a transfusion of blood. She taught Cage how
to win the war and find a knowledgeable person to help them. Then, Cage started
his repeating life and beat many difficulties to win the war. During his
experience, he saw Rita died hundreds of times and he died hundreds of times.
However lastly, they found the omega, which is the most important thing for the
Mimics, and destroy it to win the war.
Cage, the main character, seemed to be a
tough person. He didn’t want to go to the war and his weak in the very
beginning of the film. However, when he known his importance, he started
training himself everyday and every time after his death. In the meantime, he
remembered all the reason of his death that made his life got better and last
longer. It meant he already get used to his death, but is still courage for
somebody to kill himself again and again. People has a fear of death and if I
can choose, I would never want to die many times.
I like the movie, not just because of the
fantastic plot, also the emotion I saw from the movie. The plot was great and
new that it mixed up many good points of other movies. However what’s more
attractive for me was the emotion of Cage and Rita. Cage saw Rita died over
three hundred times. Even though it was the first time for Rita to meet Cage
every time he woke up, she’s the most familiar person in his life. He always
wished that she could survive first then they would find the way to win the war
together. He loved Rita, because of her perseverant, her hard working and even
her heartlessly. It was too attractive for me to find the humanity to love in a
hard time for human.
To conclude, it was a great movie with an
unusual topic and it made me to see the life of a life repeating people. I wish
people would go to see the movie to understand more about the humanity and
learn from the movie.
