you must use your imagination ....

Rating: 6/10 (17 July 2012)

for this to work. In this movie, once a person turns 25, a clock starts on their arm, and that is how much time they have left. There is no money only time. You buy everything with time, from coffee to paying your rent.
Will, from the ghetto, meets a suicidal guy that has a century. The guy gives Will his time before killing himself. Will is angry because his mom timed out and he wants to make things more fair. So he goes to new grenwich, which costs a lot of time to get there. By this time, the time police are after him because they think he killed the guy whom gave him his time. Will wins big at poker and is invited to a rich guy's house where he hooks up with his daughter, Sylvia. The cops burst in and he takes Sylvia on the lam with him.
So the rest of the movie, the two become sort of like robin hood, stealing time and giving to the poor. I guess the big suspense is will they get caught or run out of time?
FINAL VERDICT: OK, but there are always too many plot holes with sci-fi movies. Like where were all the cell phones, and why did the cop cars look like drag racers from the 70s. Anyways, I recommend it for a mindless popcorn flick.
