ultimate time travel movie

Rating: Null/10 (16 July 2003)

This one is definitely on the list of one of my most favorite movies. One part has to do with that I like movies dealing with time travel and end of the world kind of stories with sceneries of destroyed buildings and empty cities. But the other part is because of the sheer merits that this movie has in terms of screenplay, cinematography, cast and just about everything.
The film is about a convict (Bruce Willis) sent back in time to find the source of a deadly virus that caused the extinction of 5 billion people in 1996. Sent back to the wrong year he ends up in a mental institution where he meets the beautiful Madeleine Stowe and the insane Brad Pitt. I never imagined that I would say those words but gBrad Pitt can actually act and act greath. Unfortunately I never repeated them again. However, it was a very memorable performance. I liked the eyes. Bruce Willis was also great in his role sometimes reminding of the all thrashed, bleeding character from the Die Hard series. And the whole show rolls over and it will not loose the grip till the final credits.
This film is not to be seen because of being a fan of Willis or Pitt. This movie is to be seen because this is what a good Sci-Fi movie and not only Sci-Fi movie is all about - clean cut story, superb cinematography, and a very solid performance from the whole cast and especially by Brad Pitt. Highly recommended.
