Trivia
This film was made by Paramount Pictures for a theatrical release but due to the Covid-19 pandemic, Paramount sold the film to Amazon Prime Video for $200 million.

Goofs
Considering how high and fast the troops fall, well in excess of the ten feet they were told, once they hit the swimming pool, they would be dead, as hitting the still water of the pool would be like impact with solid ground. Impact with the solid floor of the pool would also be fatal. They would, at the very least, show some sign of injury, instead of just walking away.

Quotes
Dan Forester: If there's one thing that the world needs right now, it's scientists. We cannot stop innovating. That's how you solve a problem.

Crazy credits
Alien sounds can be heard at the end of the credits.

Has it All - Almost

A hundred reviews here will tell you the story isn't logical. It's formulaic, it's predictable, and it has holes. I admit, I don't always watch movies for fine storytelling. If a quality story is your overriding interest, you should look elsewhere, because The Tomorrow War doesn't really have one.

What it does have is time travel paradox, awesome action, great special effects, cool stunts, killer cinematography, an everyman hero, and the most creative monsters I've seen in a while. It even takes a stab at character development, and deals with father-daughter and father-son relationships in a way a lot of people can probably relate to.

I think truly entertaining movies are pretty few and far between, so I was pleased to see this. In fact, my whole family really liked it, and it's not easy for us to find something we're all interested in. Watch it if you want to have fun.
