Fun fact in case you didn't know: those battle suits were physical costumes, not CGI. And they weighed upwards of 40 kilograms so actors had to be suspended in air by chains between takes because otherwise wearing them would have been too physically demanding for an entire day of shooting. Despite being a sci-fi film made in 2014, the film had a lot of practical effects. No doubt because Tom Cruise was involved, as he loves doing stunts.
