Tom Cruise and Emily Blunt star in this sci-fi action feature based on the light novel 'All You Need Is Kill' by Hiroshi Sakurazaka. New Special Forces recruit William 'Bill' Cage (Cruise) is equipped with a powered exoskeleton and sent on a mission to fight a fierce alien race known as Mimics, who are ultimately unstoppable. Cage soon dies in combat but, caught in a time loop, he finds himself very much alive and once again facing the same battle. This process repeats itself several times but with every fight Cage grows stronger and more adept. He meets tough warrior Rita Vrataski (Blunt) and together they try to bring down the enemy once and for all.

This black comedy marks the debut feature of television director Ben Wheatley. When they are released from jail after doing time for an unspecified crime, gangster father and son, Bill (Robert Hill) and Karl (Robin Hill), become obsessed with identifying the police informant whom they are convinced is in their midst. Meanwhile, the family business looks set to implode as suspicions grow between the various shady characters operating out of Down Terrace.

Lt. Col. Bill Cage is an officer who has never seen a day of combat when he is unceremoniously dropped into what amounts to little more than 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.
