The Tomorrow War (movie review)

 The Tomorrow War

Cast: Chris Pratt, Yvonne Strahovski, JK Simmons, Betty Gilpin

            Taking place in the near future, this action flick stars Pratt as a former Marine who gets 
   passed over for a job he wanted. He realizes he has no purpose in life until people from the 
   future show up on TV & ask citizens to come fight with them against an army of aliens that 
   has been killing people. He willingly joins and heads to the future. He ends up meeting a
   grown up version of his daughter (Strahovski), who works as a scientist trying to figure out
   how to kill the aliens with a virus.

           I really enjoyed this movie alot that has heart. The casting is excellent and features 
  a prominent male action hero something that is lacking in today's progressively woke 
  Hollywood . The special effects are top notch considering the nearly $200 million
  price tag Amazon had to pay for the rights. The father/daughter dynamic will hit you right
  in the feels. 

       Grade B+
