Farell (Bill Paxton) at Forward Operating Base Heathrow in London, where he’s outfitted with a computerized exoskeleton that if properly operated turns the combatant into a fighting robot. The reluctant Cage is arrested for desertion and assigned to the combat unit of the no-nonsense Master Sgt. In the near future, the wormy, cowardly and unprincipled American Major William Cage (Tom Cruise) is a military PR officer who is unwillingly recruited by a European commander, General Brigham ( Brendan Gleeson), into a doomed combat beach mission in France against giant marauders. The story is about CGI created gigantic spidery alien invaders trying to destroy Europe (it wistfully turns D-Day into a futuristic high-tech aerial assault on Normandy).
