review 1: Not bad. This is a decent bit of science fiction. I can't help but feel that the original novel is probably better. I haven't seen the recent Tom Cruise film based on the book either. So basically this guy keeps reliving the same loop of time over and over again. It eventually becomes clear what's happening and what he needs to do to break the cycle. It's ultimately a bit too much flashy and stylish for its own good. Substance is important too. It's a decent quick read, but not much else.
review 2: The graphic novel adaptation of All You Need is Kill depends much on the notion that those who will be reading it are the people who have either read the novel or saw the movie Edge of Tomorrow. As a stand-alone graphic novel, someone without any prior knowle
... moredge about the movie or the novel will find the comics confusing. Many of the important elements are not clearly explained. On the other hand, those who have read the novel or watched the movie will feel like they have to recall many things from the novel/movie. Everything is rushed and less epic than what should have been. That is disappointing since the very reason we have bought this one is to appreciate the story in another medium and not to experience a mediocre version of it.The artwork is a little less than good. The mimics are not as formidable as they should have been and the protagonists look like generic foot soldiers. Even the fight scenes are boring.Watch the movie, read the novel, skip this one. less

Cool story that the new movie Edge of Tomorrow is based on. I really liked it!

Art is fine, but nothing that really blew me away. Cool, but slight story.

The movie Edge of Tomorrow was much better.
