Clever Thriller

Rating: 7/10 (6 January 2012)

To break this movie down, it takes elements of Ground Hog Day and combines them with Avatar. In order to spoil it a bit, there is a secret project called Source Code where a disabled nearly dead serviceman can be put into a capsule. Then their mind can be used to keep going back to a tragic event and figure out how it happened. Then they can go back one more time and stop it and change history.
While this stuff has been done before, the production, the cast Stars:
Jake Gyllenhaal, Michelle Monaghan and Vera Farmiga and a nice twisting ending make it a nice diversion from reality for 94 minutes. Ben Ripley's script does a nice job on this with Moon's Director Duncan Jones pacing the story just right.
It is not a great film, but it is more entertaining than many. The source code is kind of a DNA of life that can rewrite history. Nicely done...
