A great film...

Rating: 7/10 (9 June 2013)

This is a bit like Groundhog Day but with a mission. It was very good.
The movie is about a bloke who wakes up on a train, but he is not himself. When he looks into a mirror he sees a different man. 8 minutes later... the train explodes killing everyone on board. Then he wakes up again in a capsule where he is told that he has to do it again until he finds the person who planted the bomb on the train... he then wakes up on the train again with 8 minutes to go until the bomb goes off.
It is a bit confusing to begin with as it doesn't really explain itself until about two thirds into the movie. We were wondering what was actually happening and why. This film does keep you guessing though. There are a lot of people on the train an the terrorist could be any one of those people. The only problem is, my gorgeous girlfriend and I guessed who it was right from the beginning. That's not to say it is too obvious, we probably just got lucky.
The film stars Jake Gyllenhaal, Michelle Monaghan, Vera Farmiga & Jeffrey Wright. The acting is great... I can't say a bad word about any of the performances here. Jake does a great job.
There are some really good slow motion shots when the train explodes too. The effects were good.
I will give this film 7 out of 10.
A very entertaining sci-fi/thriller.
