it was quite bad. Its what you get if you take a Philip K Dick story, or a good French/Chinese/German sci-fi movie and give it to a middling American director like Danny Cannon or McG.

Thing is, every so often it threatened to get deep and interesting, like when Timberlake first calls his 25 year old mum 'mum' SHOCKING! and a few other bits of narrative too do sound sparky, plus of course the all inferences that that time as a commodity makes...but all it added up to was too much mentioning of the word 'time', which was a 'Waste of Time'. Incidentally, why do people so easily forget to top up on time and then die? SO lame. Who would be stupid enough to do that?

The leads didnt help, Sieyfred, Timberlake and the hunky blonder guy were piss weak and ruined what credibility the movie had, not helped by the fact the rest of the cast look way past 25. Only Cillian Murphy actually stood out as decent and thats some feat with the crap script he had. Man, that guy was born to play Clark Kent.

The whole movie seems to be have been shot on some LA flyover or some posh hotel, plus a bit of ghetto.

Why o why do these films get shot if the script and stunts get put together by an idiot? i dont get it. This is the reason I stopped p*ying for movies.
fav 5 films of the year - Tenet, Bill n Ted 3, Invisible Man, JoJo Rabbit, ?
