It was based on a comic and novel of the same name. In the year 2077, Tech 49 Jack Harper Tom Cruise is one of the last drone repairmen stationed on Earth. The planet was nearly destroyed sixty years prior, during a war against the alien Scavengers.
The Scavs destroyed the moon, resulting in massive natural disasters before being defeated by nuclear weapons which left most of Earth uninhabitable. Surviving humans migrated to the "Tet", a massive orbiting space station, and to Saturn's moon Titan. From Tower 49, a base standing above the remains of the North Eastern United States, Jack and his partner and lover, Victoria, maintain the autonomous drones that defend giant ocean-borne power stations - that generate fusion power from seawater - from the remnants of the Scav army. They receive their orders from Sally,their mission commander, who is stationed on the Tet, and expect to leave Earth and join the other survivors on the Tet in two weeks.
Although Jack and Vika had their memories wiped five years earlier for security reasons, Jack has recurring dreams about meeting a mysterious woman at the Empire State Building before the war, before he was born. Jack keeps a secret retreat in a lake house in a forested area that he sometimes visits. Three years later, Julia is seen living with her young daughter in the lake house on the recovering Earth. A group of survivors arrive there, and Tech 52 emerges from the group. A voice-over by Tech 52 reveals that his previous encounter had re-awakened memories of Julia, and he had searched for her since the Tet's destruction. Having the same latent memories as Tech 49,he reunites with his family.
