"Edge of Tomorrow" somehow failed to impress audiences when it debuted in theaters early this year. However, shared behind-the-scenes footages reveal that the action flick deserves more praise than flak.

In the clip posted by Giant Freakin' Robot,cast members are seen running around in full metal gear while doing action stunts for the film. As Cinema Blend reported, "Most films today would use CGI almost exclusively to create the images and explosions of Edge of Tomorrow, but director Doug Liman went for a mixture of computer generated imagery and old-fashioned practical effects."
"We're astonished Cruise (who loves to do his own stunts) or some of the other cast members weren't killed making this movie..."
"We can see Doug Liman giving Tom Cruise and co-star Emily Blunt direction between takes, actors running about attached to wires to help make them move more effectively in the bulky metal suits of armor, and a whole lot of very real (and very dangerous looking) explosions," the article added."

For those who haven't watched the movie yet, here is a short description published on Google search:
"Lt. Col. Bill Cage is an officer who has never seen a day of combat when he is unceremoniously dropped into what amounts to a suicide mission. Killed within minutes, Cage now finds himself inexplicably thrown into a time loop - forcing him to live out the same brutal combat over and over, fighting and dying again - and again. But with each battle, Cage becomes able to engage the adversaries with increasing skill, alongside Special Forces warrior Rita Vrataski. And, as Cage and Rita take the fight to the aliens, each repeated encounter gets them one step closer to defeating the enemy."
