I took out the DVD for the recent sci-fi flick ‘Oblivion’, and we watched it on Saturday night. I would have to agree with the ‘Rotten Tomatoes’ website that says its consensus is that the film is ‘visually striking but thinly scripted’. I have trouble latching onto any Tom Cruise character emotionally anyway, but I he did a good job to carry the movie. I see the film was shot in the summer in Iceland, so the spectacular scenery of black lava rock and snow is actually real and not visual effects. It is hard to say what is real and what is not in movies nowadays!
