Movie information in first post provided by The Movie Database
I really enjoyed this militaristic action packed sci-fi movie.

It threw out a new concept of a time loop for me, which was the intriguing part of the story.

What if when you woke up, you could repeat the same day, but make different choices until you felt they were right? And, then continue with the next, with only death restarting you to day 1 where you would have to repeat everything perfectly to get back to your "save point"?

How long until you would want to leave that scenario?
 
It's so funny that Tom Cruise’s character is stuck and wakes up each morning to live the exactly the same day over again. He doesn’t quit and does not make the same mistake twice. Just like a video game, his character is really cool and strong .
 
This movie brings out the message that practice makes perfect. Tom Cruise transforms from being a scared person to a brave one. It’s an idea of doing a particular thing over and over until it is accomplished.
