Ok so a long shot but I remember watching a Tom Cruise film but can’t remember the name of the full story. Helpful, I know! Basically a load of people have to stay in this building that was like a warehouse sort of building. If they left they would be attacked. I can’t remember if it was by aliens or something. Anyway of course Tom Cruise would leave the building with a big gun to go and get supplies..... anyone know what it is called??

Storage 24?

Dachshelp · 30/12/2020 11:22

Not storage 24 but thanks another one to add to my list!! Yea definitely a film... they weren’t trapped in the building, they were sheltering there. People were injured by whatever was outside (pretty sure some sort of aliens in spaceships) that were shooting down at the humans. The main character went out with a big gun with another character and they have to scavenge the food without being seen by the alien things or they will die... what a nightmare 🤣 that’s what the whole film is based on. They survive and the aliens all go and earth continues blah blah. It is definitely based in America I know that much...

10 clover field lane?
District 9?

londongirl12 · 30/12/2020 11:24

Can you think about when you saw it? Tv? Cinema? How long ago?

Dachshelp · 30/12/2020 11:29

No not clover field.. and not district 9 (I watched that for the first time a couple of months ago).

I saw it on TV at home and I probably watched it at most 2 years ago but I would say the film is about 10 years old, it wasn’t a new film?

I’m so thankful that you have all tried to help me! I thought this thread would be ignored Smile

Sorry I skim read and just said the name of a film in a warehouse but now I've read updates it won't be that.

Tooth & nail?

Dachshelp · 30/12/2020 11:41

I've been through Tom Cruise's film list on IMDB. Looking like it might not be TC.

Dachshelp · 30/12/2020 15:58

Yeah I have come to that conclusion @iklboo it is very much the sort of film he would do for sure though..

The Day The Earth Stood Still (Keanu)
The invasion (Daniel Craig)

Ridingthegravytrain · 30/12/2020 17:36

Have we not found it yet. I want to watch it tomorrow night now, whatever it is 😂

Ridingthegravytrain · 30/12/2020 17:38

Knowing?
Battle los Angeles?

SantasBritchesSpelleas · 30/12/2020 17:44

Tom Cruise isn't in it (I don't think) but it sounds like The Island, with Ewan McGregor.

The Undead 2003

Dachshelp · 30/12/2020 19:58

No, none of those Sad it is definitely set in America, it isn’t a ‘futuristic’ type of alien film, it’s based around standard random people and then they take cover in a building/warehouse thing.

Arghh the hospital bit rings a bell, was that in the part of the building that was a underground car park? They also have a soup kitchen type thing handing out supplies to survivors?
