Critics Consensus

Visually striking but thinly scripted, Oblivion benefits greatly from its strong production values and an excellent performance from Tom Cruise.

Candice Frederick Reel Talk Online It's a shame that its poor editing inhibits what could have been a memorable movie. Rated: C+ Sep 7, 2017 Full Review Jason Bailey Flavorwire Here's the trouble with mainstream science fiction filmmaking these days: there's no expectation that an audience is capable of putting things together or waiting for a payoff. Jun 21, 2016 Full Review Chris Stuckmann ChrisStuckmann.com The story that eventually surfaces is no where near as interesting as the mesmerizing look of the film. Rated: B Apr 23, 2015 Full Review Sean Axmaker Stream on Demand There’s no denying that Oblivion is derivative.... But director Joseph Kosinski, adapting his own graphic novel, sure knows how to make it look beautiful and evocative. Nov 6, 2022 Full Review Brian Eggert Deep Focus Review Oblivion’s characters do little more than service the puzzle-based plot, leaving the sometimes predictable dialogue to the actors to enhance. Rated: 2.5/4 Sep 12, 2022 Full Review Keith Garlington Keith & the Movies The eye-popping visuals help create a futuristic wonder, and the Iceland locations give a perfect sense of desolation. Rated: 4/5 Aug 24, 2022 Full Review Read all reviews

Andrew Z The fact this still delivers surprises for me 11 years later makes this a 5 star Sci-Fi/Action flick. Great cast, story, setting and the score is so good. When stacked against other sci-fi/action it sits at the top of the food chain, hence 5 stars. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/21/24 Full Review Anthony S Quintessential SciFi that has a phenomenal cast, great story and awesome special effects - what more could anyone hope for? Two thumbs way up!!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/09/24 Full Review Skies A Es una película interesante 🤔 pero no va más allá de eso. Estoy seguro que pudo haber sido mejor. La idea es buena 👍 pero se quedó ahí. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 06/17/24 Full Review Juraj B Amazing sci-fi movie, must see. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/11/24 Full Review Aditya K Simple but elegant movie. Great soundtrack Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/30/24 Full Review Dan R Story had extremely concept, just feel like it didn't really capture me, I don't think it was a well executed movie. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 05/08/24 Full Review Read all reviews
