Plot Outline:
|
Mankind has figured out how to turn off the aging gene. To avoid overpopulation time had become the new currency and the rich are now near immortal while the rest of the people must barter to extend their lives. When a poor man comes into a wealth of time, he comes under the watchful eye of the corrupted "Time Keepers" and must now figure out how to avoid them to enjoy his sudden extended life. -- Chris Kavan

I am shocked by people's displeasure with this movie. It was such a creative setting and plot. You can relate the plight of the lower-class of our society to that set in the movie; some people might even say it is a poltical-commentary on the pitfalls of capitalism.. The acting wasn't great but it wasn't atrocious as some people seem to think. Very fun ride of a movie. |

Timberlake takes a huge step back. Olivia Wilde is pointless, and Cillian Murphy looks like he had plastic surgery. Still, it is a sci fi movie that does a decent job of telling an unoriginal story. Nothing more than average but for some reason I watched it all. |

I finished the movie and I think it with a smile: it was horrible.honest! I really think that the actors themselves do not watch what they've done. one cannot forget when Timberlake ru(i)ns to save his mother or lover, witch, in the beggining it's very confuse. Now, if I was living in such a scenario, I would not want to get Time for nothing in the world. Short: this movie is just plain stupid. |

Entertaining but too flawed... |

SPOILERS AHEAD -- THIS IS NOT REALLY A REVIEW, MORE A RANT...
The movie is entertaining, fast-paced, interesting...if you can accept the premise - time as money - which I couldn't.
What would be the point of the value system depending on the time and the life living like that, when your hand is practically a wallet easily robbed. People on the poor side didn't have enough time to live at all, they were basically lowered to the level of simple day-to-day survival, which doesn't make sense - what would be the point of living like that, like simple machines to put tokens in? Opposite to them, rich people had to be careful not to make any stupid or risky movement (what a fun of living like that either) because such a mistake could cost them literally a life. If dead their money wouldn't be ... |

in time lacks focus |
|
The best part comes when people are shown a digital time in their skin of their left hand ticking the time left to survive. The skin glows in green even in water and shows that the future is depending on the science and technology. When a person explains all about the factors regarding time and its importance it is the best way movie can begin. The worst part comes when things does not move according to the way it began. It turns as a movie with a couple becoming thieves and stealing time and also donating to the one that deserves. In time is directed and written by Andrew Niccol. It is distributed by 20th century fox and Regency. It is casted by Justin Timberlake, Amanda Seyfried, Cillian Murphy and others. According to me movie does give the selfishness of human beings to live. But 104 ... |

Time is Money! |
|
"In order for a few to be immortal many must die."
Justin Timberlake and Amanda Seyfried star in this sci-fi thriller which takes place in the future where time is used as currency and people stop aging at 25. Upon reaching that age a clock on your arm starts counting down. Each person is granted a year. When your clock hits zero you die. Imagine having to live your life by constantly looking at how much time you still have. To stay alive you have to earn time and because time is money it means people work, deal, fight, gamble and steal to get it and add to their dwindling lifespan engraved on their arms. The lucky ones, the rich, can live forever while the poor go from day to day hoping that they can keep enough time to be able to make it to the next day.
We are introduced to paupe... |

Opened to mostly lackluster reviews, but I was surprised at how much this movie grew on me as it went along. |

Saw the trailer. Yes the premise was good and it has potential. yes your right, if Timberlake delivers and the flick has a good plot, then this would be popularly be huge. Screenplay looks pretty interesting. |

Interesting concept. This looks a little like Gattaca, which was at best a divided film.
Still, watching Cillian Murphy play a villain is always great. And hopefully Justin Timberlake can carry dramatic weight on his shoulders for this one, as he's yet to convince me. |
