A cool premise for an action movie is bogged down in a lame romance and the thoroughly cliched threat of missing WMDs. That being said, no one could have played the lead role as off-kilter as Nicolas Cage succeeds at.

Some times critics just need to shut up.

Nicholas Cage can see a couple minutes into the future. FBI wants to use that ability. They have to catch him first. Throw in a love interest and terrorists with atomic bomb.

Cool premise could've made for a cooler movie, but I did like the ending.

A dud of a movie from start to finish. The acting is over-done, the plot is obvious and uninteresting, and some of the dialogue is plain laughable. An embarrassment for Philip K. Dick fans.

Yeah... I pass. I was happy when I was about to see a Philip Dick's adaptation, but I was also cautious, since Lee Tamahori isn't a good director. So, in short, stay away from this flick. Is not good (I hope the book is better)

A good idea that never pans out. I love the idea behind the film, but the actors just don't look that into it. Everyone looks like they're sleepwalking through their part. Some good effects help, but can't save the film.

Interesting premise but ultimately falls flat. It could've been a lot better if they had just focused on the terrorist plot. I didn't really buy the whole romance subplot regarding Jessica Biel and Nicolas Cage's characters, mainly because they both lacked chemistry. The last thirty minutes of the movie was somewhat unnecessary so I didn't really pay attention nor did I care what would happen. I just stared at Cage's hair and amused myself about how crazy and messy it was (like the movie). Julianne Moore did a nice job as an agent but her character was also one-dimensional. Try to avoid this movie unless you're really bored. Like I said, it has an interesting idea but the execution was not done well.
