Part of: "Summer 2013 Vol. 1"
Andrew Niccol's sci-fi action flick IN TIME, had such an interesting premise with such a cool looking world and rules that the people have to follow that are so farfetched that it actually kind of makes sense. I avoided IN TIME at all coasts when it came out in 2011. It looked liked a rip off of INCEPTION and looking at it now, it could also be a rip off of LOPPER. Science Fiction…

In a future where people stop aging at 25, but are engineered to live only one more year, having the means to buy your way out of the situation is a shot at immortal youth. Here, Will Salas finds himself accused of murder and on the run with a hostage - a connection that becomes an important part of the way against the system.

High concept, interesting ideas, get hit with the stupid stick, in this unexciting and shoddy looking Future Noir.
None of the actors look like they want to be here and for the most part are not.
The idea of spending your lifetime instead of money is interesting, but then tearing that system down by flooding it with currency, is stupid to the point of being insulting.
In Time for what?

"You can do a lot in a day." - Will Salas
In Time is the perfect example of a fantastic, unique and interesting concept being misused and awfully constructed leading to a below average film. I also want to know who thought it would be a good idea to cast Justin Timberlake as the lead.

Una idea cojonuda. Una película que no hay por dónde cogerla.

This movie holds the record for the most lines with the word "time" in it and most close ups of forearms.

Andrew Niccol has a knack for getting involved in projects with great premises that ultimately result in something way below the expected (except maybe Lord of War, of which I'm a fan). In Time is such a project, yet another sci-fi film by Niccol that fails to truly deliver of what could've been a new high note of a very stagnated genre. The story of a civilization where time replaced currency as the main form of trade seems interesting from…

It's a crazy story idea, a mix of Bonnie&Clyde and Robin Hood - but it's about time and how people handle the idea of living in the moment, struggling for every second.
I just don't like the non-existing chemistry between Timberlake and Seyfried.
All in all I enjoyed the movie very much. -
De Nieuw-Zeelandse regisseur Andrew Niccol is altijd een ideeënman geweest, een cineast die niet denkt in story arcs en spanningsbogen, maar in fascinerende ideeën die het publiek steevast een spiegel voorhouden. Wat als de wereld een geregisseerde soap is? (‘The Truman Show', waarvoor Niccol het scenario pende), Wat als je de genetica van je kinderen kan bepalen? (‘Gattaca') of wat als actrices vervangen kunnen worden door computergegenereerde robots? (‘S1m0ne')... Ook in de nieuwe Niccol is het van dattum: wat als…
