Remarkable sights meet routine story in "Oblivion"

"Oblivion," Tom Cruise's first dip into sci-fi since "War of the Worlds" as well as the year's first big blockbuster, may technically be an original sci-fi story, but it's in name only. The movie drives over well-tread ground, but it does so with such visual panache and slick beauty that it almost doesn't matter. Almost.
