Aw, Screw It!

Rating: 6/10 (3 February 2016)

I've seen a lot of sci-fi lately, some good, some criminally bad. Although Tony Scott's Deja Vu will never be accused of being awful, it's too dumb--on a logical level--to be taken seriously.
Yet.
This homegrown-terrorist-blows-up-500+-people-and-it's-up-to-Denzel- to-use-time-bending-to-save-the-day-suspenser is so entertaining that, ya just can't get angry with it, right down to the part where somebody shows up at the end of the flick you thought should be dead.
I'm not hitting that spoiler alert, period!
Time travel movies are, by and large, incoherent and illogical. Nothing new here with Deja Vu, but Washington and Paula Patton and Jim Caviezel and Adam Goldberg are all such comfortable performers that I actually shrugged at one point and got my harumph out of the way.
Do not go all Spock on this flick. You'll become an annoying, overly-analytical, barely-literate movie critic with a zillion reviews on IMDb.
And we wouldn't want that to happen to anybody!
