"Edge of Tomorrow"

トム・クルーズ主演の映画、「オール・ユー・ニード・イズ・キル」を最初に見たのはもうけっこう前なんだけど、原作が日本の小説だったってオットに言われるまで知らなかった。
オットが原作を読みたいというので図書館で借りて（英語翻訳版）、オットが読み終わった後で私も読んでみました。

感想は、ちなみに、イマイチ（爆）話が、ではなく、文章のテンポやスタイルが（翻訳だからか？）。めずらしく、原作より映画のほうが良かったです。
締めに映画版も見直してみました。やっぱりトム・クルーズ映画は、なんだかんだ言ってちゃんとどれもいい娯楽作品なのがすごい。

I had watched Tom Cruise's recent movie, Edge of Tomorrow, a while ago and I did not know that it was based on a Japanese light novel, "All You Need Is Kill."
The Man of the House wanted to read it so I got it from the library and I read it after he was done.

Well, this is one of the rare occasion that I say the movie was better than the book.
I did not like the writing style and tempo of the story. It was just not good writing and I had to force myself to finish it. Thank goodness it was a "light" novel.

As it has been the routine, we finished the book with the movie. The movie is quite different from the book actually, so nothing redundant.

I also watched The Bourne Identity right after Edge of Tomorrow, not knowing it was done by the same director. I really like The Bourne series. Maybe I should read the original novel... (if only I could read faster.)
