    All You Need is Kill by Hiroshi Sakurazaka

    Book was great. Never bothered to see the movie with tom cruise.

      The film is pretty good. I’d treat as a separate thing altogether, the film is very loosely based on the book.

      Plus there’s a manga illustrated by Takeshi Obata (of Death Note fame) that’s half decent. The illustrations of the book were done by Yoshitoshi Abe (of Welcome to the NHK fame)

      I haven’t read the source material but the movie is one of the best sci-fi films of the new millennium, and certainly one of the most enjoyable. Films like Arrival, Dune, Blade Runner 2049 are visually striking and thoughtful but Edge of Tomorrow is also great fun.
