The article under the headline OBLIVION-REVIEW was taken from The Guardian.co.uk and was published on April 10. The author of the article was the Guardian's film critic Peter Bradshaw. He devoted his article to the review of Oblivion, a 2013 science fiction film co-written, produced and directed by Joseph Kosinski and based on his unpublished graphic novel of the same name edited by Radical Comics. Then the author pointed out that the film starred Tom Cruise, Olga Kurylenko, Andrea Riseborough,Morgan Freeman, Melissa Leo, Zoë Bell, and Nikolaj Coster-Waldau.

The author started by telling the reader that the main character of that film was Tom Cruise, who played Jack Harper, a tough and self-reliant soldier in the late 21st century after a victorious but desrtuctive battle against alien invaders. Then Peter underlined that his mission was to repair automated drones that exterminate the remaining alien scavengers ("Scavs") hidden on Earth. Jack and Victoria report to Sally ( Andrea Riseborough), a military commander stationed in a tetrahedral structure in Earth's orbit called "The Tet", which controlled the Hydro Rigs, machined that were extracting vital resources from the surface, and were being targeted by the Scavs. But Jack But Jack iwas plagued with weird mental images of a romantic encounter in pre-war New York and when he found a beautiful human survivor, Julia (Olga Kurylenko), she stirred intense memories, and it was clear that there was something the authorities are not telling him.

In the second part of the article( in a key one) Peter Bradshaw expressed his point of view, sayinng that on the one hand, this movie had some beautiful images of planetary, but on the other hand the story itself felt numbed, derectionless and dull.

As for me, I can't share the author's view as I have not seen Oblivion yet. Anyway I found this article very useful and of good value. The message of the author was clear to understand a plot and character characteristics of the film.
