Too Stupid To Enjoy... Yes, A Waste of Time Indeed

Rating: Null/10 (9 November 2011)

I'm not sure what this movie wanted to be and I'm quite sure neither did the director or even the writers. Apparently, they wanted to spin a tale that would satisfy the "Occupy Wallstreet" crowd but forgot to make the movie itself fun or even coherent. The concept never works or makes any real sense at all and, quite frankly, is too stupid to buy in to at any time. Never aging past the age of 25 and having time as the only form of currency is an interesting idea but there are so many facets involved and none of it works. What would be the true ramifications are never shown and there's no depth to anything. No supporting character does anything remotely believable and the I haven't seen this dumb of a society since the movie Demolition Man. At least in that dumb movie we got to see Wesley Snipes kick someone. Here, there is one car chase and no action or adventure to link anything together. It's a straight share the wealth story with a nice message of appreciate life don't just live it. That's not near enough and the irony is that this seemed like two hours wasted to me.
SPOILER: At the end, why the hell didn't they take some of the one million years for themselves? They were driving around with it but had under an hour left? The only reason was to have a dramatic climax but the only thing I could thing of during that scene was why the hell is this happening at all?
