Code source

Ok, well this is actually a much better movie than I anticipated and there's 2 reasons why.

So for these type of films a lot that are similar can be made overly confusing and boring in parts and Source Code, thank god, isn't that. The plot is easy to understand, the jargon used isnt over the top and I found myself gripped throughout. 2nd reason is that films like this hinge on the ending. The ending has to be good and I believe this delivers. It's a nice, happy ending. There's no unanswered questions and you're left fulfilled.

Beyond that the characters are likeable and it's well acted from all involved. Listen, it's not a film you'll shout and scream about. It's just a nice little thriller that you'll watch and go "you know what I quite liked that". If you're put off by the idea that it's sci-fi then don't be, because the sci-fi element is next to nothing. But yeah, I would recommend to watch if you haven't already.

I love this movie and have rewatched it a few times over the years. Duncan Jones has impressed with other offerings such as Moon and Warcraft and I look forward to his future ventures. Jake Gyllenhaal (another favourite) plays the protaganist brilliantly and the angst, apprehension and despair that he portrays while trying to figure out Source Code is palpable. Although the premise is far fetched, the characters are relatable - which is why we watch movies right?

I was looking forward to seeing " Source Code " ever since I saw the 1st trailer, and I was lucky enough to catch it in an advance screening, before it officially released here, and it just exceeded my expectations. this is the type of movies that will keep you interested till the very ending . it's probably the best sci-fi/thriller since Inception ! no big action scenes, no big explosions, no usage of unnecessary CGI, well-written story, solid performance from Mr. Gyllenhaal ( who is now officially one of my favorite actors ) and another hit from my newest favorite filmmaker Duncan Jones. don't miss it !

Source Code is a science fiction action thriller movie directed by Duncan Jones and stars Jake Gyllenhaal, Michelle Monaghan, Vera Farmiga, Jeffrey Wright and Michael Arden.

The best part of the movie is it's pace which will not gives you a chance to sit back or blink. The movie is very smart and suspenseful. The screenplay of the movie is intelligent and will make sure that you are glued to your seats. Direction and cinematography is good.

Acting is great and Jake Gyllenhaal is mesmerising. Vera Farmiga is superb and Michelle Monaghan is memorable. The movie presents superhero in a new form without costumes and special powers but doing the same thing of saving the world.

A must watch movie with an great ending.

Source Code is a fun movie - think Quantum Leap meets Groundhog Day. However, don't think about the story too much or holes will begin to appear. The best thing you can do is turn off your brain, appreciate the solid performances by Jake Gyllenhaal and Vera Farmiga and enjoy the ride.
