Major Bill Cage is an officer who has never seen a day of combat when he is unceremoniously demoted and dropped into combat. Cage is killed within minutes, managing to take an alpha alien down with him. He awakens back at the beginning of the same day and is forced to fight and die again... and again - as physical contact with the alien has thrown him into a time loop.
Aight I haven’t seen those threads but I’m guessing it’s about how he resets to a day or two before he was given the power by the alpha?
That’s a very fair thing to wonder. I wouldn’t expect the power to work if the omega was dead. I assumed plot convenience but maybe others were more curious.
Glad to see this film getting the recognition it deserves. I never understood why it flopped. Really good, fun, competent sci-fi.
It was too complicated for a lot of moviegoers.
That’s kind of sad. Its the standard time loop trope that’s really common.
There are lots of threads on Reddit, IMDb, and elsewhere of people asking for an explanation to the ending.
