Oblivion 2013 - 4 stars out of 5 stars

Perhaps the strangest sci-fi movie I have ever seen.I need to re-watch the Matrix saga before I can be sure,but for now,this is it.The cast is very professional and the FX fine,but its the story thats the thing.And just what is that story??Ah,thats why its a must see.It has elements of many classic films and is not afraid to use them to confuse and dare I say,abuse you,the viewer.In the end however it was a ride and the only reason I took 1 star off was it was a slow starter and I still don't fully "get it"but hey,thats what sci-fi is all about.Lets just call it,the Road Warrior becomes the Terminator within a Star Trek morality play or not,but thats for you to figure out.Released in 2013 it runs 124 minutes.Trailer URL follows the picture and a IMDB summary is below.

One of the few remaining drone repairmen assigned to Earth, its surface devastated after decades of war with the alien Scavs, discovers a crashed spacecraft with contents that bring into question everything he believed about the war, and may even put the fate of mankind in his hands.
