Great flick for any time!!!!
After seeing the incredible Count of Monte Cristo, I looked up this film costarring Jim Caviezel hoping for an okay flick. However, it definately exceeded my expectations!!! Caviezel is John Sullivan, a young cop living in Queens in 1999. His father (Dennis Quaid in a great performance) Frank was a firefighter who died thirty years ago in a warehouse fire. However, John is given everyone's dream of getting a second chance to fix the past!! By some strange phenomenon concerning Northern Lights, John is able to talk to Frank in 1969, over his father's old ham radio, and on the eve of his father's death warns him that he will die tomorrow. Although Frank is unconvinced that the voice on air is his son from the future, he "goes the other way" and escapes from the burning warehouse. Not interested yet? Because Frank did not die in the fire, his wife, a nurse, accidently saves the life of a serial killer. Unfortunately, back in 1999, a horrified John discovers that mother has been murdered by the said serial killer in 1969!!! It's up to John and Frank, in a father-son collaboration, to catch the killer and save their wife/mother before the killer gets to both of them first. This is really an interesting and absorbing movie, and I guarantee you'll be hooked until the very end!!!*
