Oblivion (2013)

Tom Cruise stars in this visually-stunning post-apocalyptic sci-fi. After Earth - as we know it - was destroyed in an extraterrestrial war, the surviving population was evacuated to the safety of a lunar colony.

Just a few humans remain on Earth to carry out vital duties, including Jack Harper (Tom Cruise) and his partner Victoria Olson (Andrea Riseborough). But when an alien ship is shot down, survivor Julia (Olga Kurylenko) changes everything Jack thought he knew about his life and his mission.

Featuring dazzling visions of a ruined Earth, the key selling point of Joseph Kosinski's second feature (following Tron: Legacy) is its jaw-dropping visuals. Oblivion's story combines intricate sci-fi with action, adventure and romance and, meeting with a solid reception from critics and audiences, proves 51-year-old Cruise is as credible an action hero as ever.
