The Tomorrow War Reviews
Chris Pratt stars as a modern-day soldier drafted in to fight a war against future aliens - with clunky, predictable consequences.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Dec 10, 2024
It’s not perfect, it won’t be the next big classic, but with greatly done action, awesome alien design, & A FANTASTIC STANDOUT PERFORMANCE from Yvonne Strahovski! PUT HER IN MORE THINGS PLEASE

The Tomorrow War is one of the biggest surprises of the year, boasting an impressively creative creature design, entertaining action sequences, and a contender for the most beautiful shot of 2021.
| Original Score: B | Jul 25, 2023
It’s only fitting that Chris Pratt honors his place among the Schwarzeneggers by doing the kind of sci-fi action movie Arnold would’ve done in the 90s.

If you are looking for a thrilling terror machine, The Tomorrow War will satisfy that craving. Otherwise, it’s a lesson in overstaying one’s welcome.
| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Oct 9, 2022
While the story builds itself around a cool and interesting concept, it’s the sheer action spectacle that stays with you.
| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Aug 17, 2022
As far as the performances go, Pratt serves his role better than it serves him, and Simmons is terrific as usual.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Jul 29, 2022
...sporadically watchable yet predominantly mediocre...
| Original Score: 2/4 | Jun 10, 2022
"The Tomorrow War" is a serviceable action film that could certainly scratch the itch many have right now for a giant summer blockbuster, but the weak script keeps the movie firmly in mediocre territory.
| Original Score: 5/10 | May 20, 2022
From the characterisation to the horrendous dialogue, everything is lacking. Even the complex action scenes are spoiled by hysterical editing.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Mar 2, 2022
Everything onscreen becomes either a product of embarrassingly bad screenwriting or an homage to a better landmark in the genre, often both.
| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Feb 12, 2022
The film, directed by the man behind The Lego Batman Movie, delivers a fun time and the entertainment you probably need after a long day. At the same time, it appears to be more of a one-time watch and nothing more than just a decent summer sci-fi flick.
| Original Score: B | Feb 11, 2022
Every scene is taking from another piece of the modern science fiction lexicon. [Full Review in Spanish]
| Original Score: 2.5/5 | Oct 29, 2021
Slick to a fault, and clumsy in the extreme, this big-budget alien war flick hasn't a lick of wit or cleverness.

The Tomorrow War is a fun, mindless, alien invasion popcorn flick that would've benefited from a theatrical release in more normal times. It's truly the epitome of what a summer blockbuster is and should be.

With a more solid script that paid just a little more attention to things like sense and logic, the film could have easily been so much better.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Oct 1, 2021
Amiable popcorn fare, then, but a little more creative effort might have made this really special.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Sep 14, 2021
A two-headed popcorn filler that is part sentimental family fodder, part save humanity from the evil ancient aliens, it won't be winning any awards but it's big and brash enough to keep you entertained.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Aug 31, 2021
It suffers from inane dialogue and a superficial story driven by explosions and aliens that reminded me of the dinosaurs from Jurassic Park.
| Aug 27, 2021
Chris Pratt is likable enough in this unique action-packed film, but it wasn't serious enough to be a super-thriller, or funny enough to be an action-comedy.
| Original Score: 6.9/10 | Aug 20, 2021
