I found my freedom . . . on Blueberry Hill

Rating: 10/10 (23 December 2011)

WOW! What a movie! This is definitely a Terry Gilliam masterpiece! ALL TIME TOP 10 LIST. 10/10. A complex movie, with a complex storyline and great acting. I haven't seen another movie in which Bruce Willis acts at this level. Excellent participation by Madelaine Stowe, Brad Pitt, and supporting cast. Creative, unique artwork.
A bizarre, far-fetched situation is portrayed in a plausibly human, dynamic, thrilling way. After a viral epidemic hits the human race in the late nineties, killing the great majority of humans, the 1% survivors were forced to leave the surface of the Earth and live underground. In 2035, scientists are trying to put bits and pieces together to understand how the virus came about and how to counter it. They are able to send "volunteers" back in time to gather information - but this time machine does not always work exactly as planned, and so Cole (Bruce Willis) is sent to the wrong year, where he meets the young, attractive psychiatrist Dr Reilly (Madeleine Stowe), to whom he tries to explain his mission. Who could possibly believe him? "Do you want to save the world?" She asks. "No. No one can save you. It has already happened." "Is 1996 the future, Cole?" "No, 1996 is ALSO the past." And so it goes.
"You haven't become addicted, have you, Cole, to that DYING WORLD?"
Does Cole fall in love with that "dying world"? What does he fall in love with?
DON'T MISS THIS MOVIE! If you haven't watched it yet, watch it today.
