An entertaining, intelligent, imaginative puzzle.

Rating: 9/10 (24 June 2011)

This second movie after Jones' very accomplished first movie "Moon" is a modest yet satisfying science fiction thriller that keeps the mind ticking and confirms away any skepticism that this director may have been a one-trick pony. Geared towards a more mainstream crowd , this smooth, polished movie,Source Code, works as an entertaining, intelligent, imaginative puzzle. Jones' film is exquisitely constructed and steadfastly focused. As Stevens wakes up time and time again as the same events play out from different perspectives and with numerous consequences. In true Hitchcockian style,a train carriage acts as a restricted and claustrophobic setting where the action plays out. Jake Gyllenhaal is superb and engaging as usual and seemed perfectly cast here.
