Very twisted tale

Rating: 8/10 (26 January 2005)

This movie has a very complicated plot, but only after having read some of the other comments I noticed how very complicated it is. The very final scene, after the shooting of Bruce Willis at the airport, is the crucial one and seems to have escaped some of the reviewers. I am referring to the old woman speaking to the psychotic killer at the end of the scene She also appears among the people around Bruce Willis in his scenes in the future. The appearance of this old woman seems to hint at the possibility that the past can be changed indeed (after the people in the future found out who is responsible for the pandemic that kills mankind they send a killer themselves; at least that's how I interpret this scene). Nothing is said about her success and what indeed would become of the future should she succeed (this is one of the crucial paradoxes of time travel). But it is this open ending that I love most about the movie. I'll give it an 8 out of 10.
