The Tomorrow War is a 2021 American military science fiction action film directed by Chris McKay and starring Chris Pratt. The picture is produced by David Ellison, Dana Goldberg, Don Granger, David S. Goyer, Jules Daly, and Adam Kolbrenner, and written by Zach Dean. The ensemble cast features Chris Pratt, Yvonne Strahovski, J. K. Simmons, Betty Gilpin, Sam Richardson, Edwin Hodge, Jasmine Mathews, Ryan Kiera Armstrong, and Keith Powers. It follows a mix of present-day soldiers and civilians sent into the future to fight an alien army.

Originally set for theatrical release by Paramount Pictures, the film's distribution rights were acquired by Amazon due to the COVID-19 pandemic,[3][4] and digitally released on July 2, 2021 via Prime Video.[5][6] With a budget of $200 million, the film is one of the most expensive films ever made. The Tomorrow War received mixed reviews from critics, with praise for the concept, action sequences, and performances (particularly Pratt and Richardson), but criticism aimed towards its derivative execution. A sequel is in development.

Plot

In December 2022, biology teacher and former Green Beret, Dan Forester, fails to get a job at the Army Research Laboratory (ARL). During the broadcast of the World Cup, soldiers from the year 2051 arrive to warn that, in their time, humanity is on the brink of extinction due to a war with alien invaders referred to as the "Whitespikes." In November 2048, the Whitespikes suddenly appear in northern Russia, their means of arrival on Earth undetected by satellite or radar, and proceed to kill the majority of the human race within three years. In response, the world's present-day militaries are sent into the future via a wormhole device called the "Jumplink," but fewer than 30% survive their seven-day deployment, prompting an international draft.

Dan receives his draft notice and tells his wife Emmy and daughter, Muri. Emmy suggests that they should run and talks Dan into visiting his estranged father James, a mechanical engineer, for help in removing the draft band attached to his arm. Dan's father left him and his mother after he returned from the Vietnam War because he felt it was dangerous to remain with them. Angry, Dan says he does not want his father's help and promptly leaves. Dan reports to basic training with other draftees where they are briefed by future soldiers.

The draftees are sent forward in time to a battlefield on Miami Beach but few survive arrival. With the city already lost, their commander orders the draftees to rescue nearby lab personnel before the area is sterilized. They discover the lab personnel are already dead but recover their research. Escaping the Whitespikes and aerial bombardment, everyone beside Dan, Dorian–a battle-hardened soldier on his third deployment to the future–and fellow draftee scientist Charlie, dies.

Dan wakes up in a military encampment in the Dominican Republic. He reports to his commander, Colonel Forester, who he discovers is his grown daughter, Muri. Muri tells Dan that they have already developed a toxin that kills the male Whitespikes, but does not kill the females, who are rarer and more dangerous of the species. Muri wants Dan to help her capture a female Whitespike so that they can use her to formulate a toxin that will kill the females as well.

They trap and cage the female, only to have hundreds of males descend on their position. As the helicopter with the female lifts off, Dan and Muri escape to a beach and radio for rescue. Muri reveals to Dan that in her past, after he didn't get the research center job, he became dissatisfied with his life and abandoned his family. He later died from injuries he sustained in a car crash in 2030. Dan, Muri, and the female Whitespike are transported to a fortified oil rig close to Port Nelson, where the Jumplink is located.

Muri creates a toxin that can kill the female Whitespikes, but with the future unable to mass-produce it, make Dan promise to take it back with him. The base is attacked and overrun. Muri sacrifices herself to send Dan back to the present. The Jumplink is destroyed shortly after his return, which the world interprets as a sign that the future war is lost.

While Dan brainstorms with his wife, they deduce that the Whitespikes did not arrive on Earth in 2048, but much earlier. Dan consults with Charlie and Martin, a high school student with an interest in volcanoes, who helps them figure out that the Whitespikes have likely been on Earth since at least the 946 "Millennium Eruption", and that global warming melting the ice caps had allowed them to emerge from beneath.

After the United States Defense Secretary declines to use military resources to prove the theory, Dan leads a mission to Russia with Charlie, Dorian, James, and a number of stranded future soldiers to take matters into their own hands. The team finds a crashed alien ship buried beneath a glacier and they debate telling the world about the problem, but decide to end the threat themselves. Once inside, the team injects five of the dormant Whitespikes with the toxin; this successfully kills them but wakes the rest of the colony, and most of the team is killed. Dorian, terminally ill with cancer and wanting to die on his own terms, stays behind to blow up the ship with C-4, killing all but one of the Whitespikes, a female, who escapes. Dan and his father hunt and kill the female. They and Charlie are the team's only survivors.

Content knowing that the war is averted and that humanity is saved, Dan brings his father home to meet his wife and daughter, determined not to make the same mistakes that Muri had warned him about from her future.

Production

Development

The film has been in development by several years by Skydance Media when they made a deal with writer Zach Dean.[7] On February 13, 2019, it was announced that Chris Pratt was in negotiations to star in the film and it was confirmed that the film would be directed by Chris McKay in his live-action debut.[8] The film was at the moment named Ghost Draft and it was revealed that the film would be about a husband and father that is drafted to fight a future war where the fate of humanity may rely on his ability to correct issues of the past.[7] Pratt revealed that he would also serve as an executive producer of the film, making his debut as a producer.[9] The film was described as a dark and emotional sci-fi action epic about a generation of people who get drafted to go 30 years in the future to fight a losing war against aliens. However the film was found too dark and decided to lighten it up, hoping to get more than $20 million to make it and feasibly attract the whole family to a theater.[10]

On July 18, 2019, it was confirmed that Yvonne Strahovski would be joining the film's cast.[11] J. K. Simmons, Betty Gilpin, Sam Richardson, Theo Von, Jasmine Mathews, Keith Powers also joined the cast in August,[12][13][14][15][16] with Mary Lynn Rajskub, Edwin Hodge, and additional cast joining in September.[17][18] On November 10, 2019, Pratt shared a photo of the filming on his Instagram with several actors of the movie who also appears in the film, in which revealed that Paramount Pictures has officially retitled the film The Tomorrow War.[19] Although it wasn't confirmed, it is likely that the film changed it's name to ensure a Chinese release, due to country having banned several films about ghosts and zombies.[20][21][22]

Creature designer Ken Barthelmey was confirmed to be the designer for the film's aliens.[23] In early 2019, production designer Peter Wenham hired him due to his ability on his previous works. The crew wanted the aliens to be scary aliens that would be taking the name White Spikes. The aliens were described as vicious creatures that attack and eat everything in sight, and needed a compelling design that conveyed the hunger and intelligence of these creatures. The crew also wanted, the aliens to have different abilities such as fast swimming and flying. He also wanted the aliens to look threatening and to use an offensive weapon. These ideas eventually led Barthelmey to the film's final design.[24]

Filming

Filming began on September 1, 2019 in Lincolnton, Georgia to grab the historical city in the Central Savannah River Area. The film was also shot at the Graves Mountain Area in 2019. The battle scenes depicting a future Miami were filmed in downtown Atlanta and Buckhead, Georgia, using both CGI and live pyrotechnics to create the post-apocalyptic setting.[25][26] The film's director revealed that he wanted the film to feel real rather than hyper-stylised and to shoot on location and limit the amount of green screen used, which is the reason he choose Iceland for the scenes in Russia at the glacier Vatnajökull. The crew revealed that they eventually filmed at the top of a glacier. Chris Pratt revealed that while filming, they were told about how a couple got frozen to death after falling through a fissure, but they still decided to take the risk hoping to impress the audience.[27][28][29] The film wrapped filming on January 12, 2020.[30][31]

For the effect of the time jump, Chris McKay wanted the time travel of the film to be unique in the film. VFX Supervisor James Price stated, "We looked at images of the northern lights and the view of Earth from space, and at one point I showed images from the Hubble Space Telescope because there's something kind of intimate and mysterious about them". The visual effects staff decided to create a force field that forms above the draftees right before they jump in time. With the time machine activated the travellers will slowly rise up and eventually be sent at the future. To capture the effect, the special effects team ran tests using an underwater cloud tank to simulate time-displacement. However SFX Supervisor JD Schwalm decided to use a practical wall of smoke. The smoke was made to be thick enough so the camera couldn't see through it and then a stunt co-ordinator rigged the actors on wires and flew them through the wall of smoke. CG electrical currents were added at post-production so the screen can represent the actors materialising out of thin air.[29] On July 1, 2021, the film was confirmed to have an estimated production budget of $200 million.[32][33]

Music

On August 6, 2020, Lorne Balfe was confirmed to be the composer for The Tomorrow War. Balfe has already collaborated with director Chris McKay to bring the musical score for the 2017 animated comedy movie The Lego Batman Movie.[34] The soundtrack album was released on July 2, 2021, by Milan Records.[35][36]

Release

The film was initially scheduled for release on December 25, 2020 by Paramount Pictures, but due to the COVID-19 pandemic it was rescheduled to July 23, 2021, taking the release date of Mission: Impossible 7, then later pulled from the schedule again.[37][38][39][40]

In January 2021, Amazon Studios was in final talks to acquire the film for around $200 million.[41] In April 2021, it was announced that Amazon had officially acquired the film, and released it on Amazon Prime Video in 240 countries worldwide on July 2, 2021.[42][43]

Reception

Audience viewership

Samba TV reported that 2.41 million households watched the film from July 2–5, the most ever for an Amazon Original tracked by the service. According to Screen Engine's PostVOD summary, the "definite recommend" audience score for the film was 53%, compared to a normal score for a streaming title of 42%.[44] From July 5-11 the film garnered 1.1 million minutes of viewing according to Nielsen ratings, and was the No. 3 most watched subscription video on demand title for the week, just behind Virgin River (1.45 billion minutes) and Manifest (1.81 billion minutes).[45][46] The film continued to top the charts in subsequent weeks, logging 1.222 billion minutes of viewership between July 21–27 (equal to about 885,507 total watches) according to Nielsen ratings.[47]

Critical response

On review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes, the film holds an approval rating of 53% based on 184 reviews, with an average rating of 5.7/10. The website's critics consensus reads, "Chris Pratt ably anchors this sci-fi adventure, even if The Tomorrow War may not linger in the memory much longer than today."[48] On Metacritic, the film has a weighted average score of 45 out of 100, based on 35 critics, indicating "mixed or average reviews".[49]

Richard Roeper of Chicago Sun-Times gave the film 2 out of 4 stars and wrote, "The Tomorrow War is an earnest effort to bring something new to the time-travel action genre, but this movie is a 2021 vehicle made of parts from the 2010s and the 1990s and 1980s."[50] IndieWire's David Ehrlich gave the film a C grade, writing, "Which isn't to say that The Tomorrow War is bad — it boasts a clever premise, a killer supporting turn from Sam Richardson, and an uncommonly well-defined sense of place for such a murky CGI gloop-fest... But for all of those laudable attributes, this flavorless loss-leader of a film is neutered by its refusal to put audiences on their heels."[1] John Defore writing for the Hollywood Reporter wrote that "the pic may be missing that certain something that would have made it huge in theaters" but that it is entertaining on Amazon stream anyway and praised Pratt's acting.[51] IGN criticized then described the movie as "Supremely stupid sci-fi", and further stated that Pratt flounders in the movie.[52] Leah Greenblatt from the Entertainment Weekly gave the film a B- grade and commented "Eventually the storyline dissolves into soft-focus sentiment and a final, snowy set piece whose execution is so patently ludicrous a 1970s Bond villain might file for intellectual property rights (though the climate-change message is sneakily on point). Until then it's enough, almost, just to watch Pratt & Co. race and banter and blast their way through Tomorrow's futures past."[53] Robert Daniels from Los Angeles Times wrote in his review "The Tomorrow War tries its hand at throwback ‘90s action glory, back when cinematic adventures could be everything for everybody. Instead, this post-apocalyptic combat flick lacks the intensity to reach the 1.21 gigawatts worth of power needed to emblazon our screens in escapist flair."[54] Wendy Ide from The Observer wrote in her review, "The creature design is first-rate – the aliens are ravenous, rapid and equipped with a pair of death tentacles. And Pratt, and in particular Betty Gilpin as his wife, give likable, grounded performances. But the screenplay is a bloated, unwieldy thing that is at least 30 minutes longer than it should be."[55]

Roxana Hadadi from Polygon considered the film to be repetitive and compared it unfavorably with Edge of Tomorrow and Starship Troopers, for which she stated "We get it! This average, blue-collar American is worthy of all our admiration! That approach is so clobbering and clunky that The Tomorrow War is constantly tripping over itself while delivering it."[56] Christy Lemire gave the film 1½ out of 4, and stated "The supposedly original script from writer Zach Dean offers very little that's innovative or inspired."[57] Barry Hertz from The Globe and Mail compared the film unfavorably with Independence Day and Starship Troopers, criticizing it's unoriginality and wrote, "It is a fool's errand to imagine what someone like Verhoeven would have done with The Tomorrow War's material – this is a movie made for the express purposes of delivering some lazy woo-hoo summer fun, not any kind of sneaky subversiveness. But if I had a time machine, I'd punt myself to the past just before The Tomorrow War went into production, and save everyone the trouble."[58] Peter Travers from the ABC News considered the film with a cliched storytelling, gimmicky special effects and borrowed inspiration stating by commenting "The Tomorrow War chases its own tail for a crushingly repetitive 140 minutes to reach an ending you could have seen coming from deep space. To quote Yogi Berra, “It's deja vu all over again.” There's nothing tomorrow about a recycled jumble that places all its bets on yesterday."[59] Mick LaSalle from the San Francisco Chronicle praised the visuals, story and action sequences and stated, "Yet it would probably be a mistake to emphasize the relationship aspect of “The Tomorrow War” too much. At its core, this is just a really good monster movie. All the same, there's a touch of beauty to it."[60]

Allen Adams from The Main Edge gave the film 2.5 out of 5 and stated, "For all that, The Tomorrow War isn't a bad watch. It's got some action and some jokes and some decent performances. What it doesn't have is that underlying originality, that expression of ideas that makes the best science fiction work so well. And unfortunately, audiences will distinctly feel that lack."[61] Randy Myers from The Mercury News gave 3½ out of 4 by commenting, "Given the scope and spectacle of the action sequences — all tautly choreographed and edited — it's a wonder that Paramount let this one get away. McKay might be best known for “Robot Chicken” and “The Lego Batman Movie,” but with “Tomorrow” he emerges as the next go-to action director."[62] Chris Agar from ScreenRant added in his review as a positive feedback , "The Tomorrow War boasts an interesting setup and solid performances by the cast, but it still comes across as unremarkable, if standard, genre fare."[63] Hoai-Tran Bui gave a positive feedback by scoring 6.5 out of 10 to the film and stated "The Tomorrow War is not by any means great sci-fi, nor is it even significantly good sci-fi. The film is half an hour too long and starts to feel like a slog by the end of the first hour. The sentimentality threatens to veer into melodrama at points, which Pratt struggles to handle. But The Tomorrow War has got a trashy popcorn vibe to it that it wholeheartedly embraces, and a cornball machismo that you can't help but get taken in by, even if just for a second."[64]

Sequel

On July 8, 2021, it was reported that Skydance and Amazon were in discussions to produce a sequel, due to the film's success. It is intended to bring back director Chris McKay, screenwriter Zach Dean, and stars Chris Pratt, Yvonne Strahovski, Betty Gilpin, Sam Richardson, Edwin Hodge, and J.K. Simmons. It was confirmed that Paramount Pictures would be returning to be the producer of the sequel. McKay also revealed that he would like to explore deeper the alien race that was introduced in the film, the Whitespikes even including their origins.[65][66]
