Not a bad way to kill some time

Rating: 7/10 (17 January 2013)

Engrossing and original. "In Time" tells the classic story of the rich vs. the poor with a modern day twist where running out of currency is instant death. It explores societal ideology that is very relevant to the current state of our own society where the poor fight for their lives every day and the rich get richer. Justin Timberlake and Amanda Seyfried give acceptable performances and work well together to become a believable, futuristic "Robin Hood" couple. The story seemed to drag on a little long. However, it takes an unexpected twist, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. The color schemes worked well. The rich zones had cooler colors and the poor zones had warmer colors, establishing both a distinct difference between the two and showing that the rich zones had colder personalities. "In Time" isn't a must see but it is enjoyable should you choose to watch it.
