A Sleeper...

Rating: 9/10 (24 September 2014)

I am thankful I can share what is nothing more than my own opinion and know that it will have some meaning to some of it's readers. "In Time" is a sleeper. I am extremely picky when it comes to movies. I often go to see movies based on directors, actors or genre. I am a fan of science fiction and I can tell you that "In Time" is one of the best written films I've seen in a long time. A lot of care and detail went to making sure all the references about time, that went into the script, would keep a balance of plausibility of what the future would look like if there was no currency, but only time to trade. All the little jitters of humor were good, the sound track was excellent, Justin Timberlake is an up and coming actor who I think does an excellent job in anything he does, the pasty mannequin makeup look of people who have been alive too long was good, the upper class drove mostly 1960 & 61 Lincoln Continental's, and a host of other unique features people tend to over look. The first time I watched it, it struck me as a well written film. A few months later I watched it again and caught a bunch of stuff I missed which made me like it even more. The police even had to base their investigations on the way society reacts to time in the context of it being money. As a sleeper, I think years from now people are going to be discovering this movie and loving it. Well done. Two thumbs up for "In Time".
