Contra o Tempo

What a movie. The price is worth paying. This movie gets straight to the point. You know you see a lot of movies that waste so much time getting into a story. Not this film, virtually from the off, we are there, in the film. It's like there is no beginning, but a middle and an end. Obviously you guys know the storyline so I'll not waste time telling you what it is about, just go and see it. It is a film that keeps you looking, you actually feel like you are 'in the source code' which is fantastic. The only downside to this film is that it feels short, it was 93 minutes but it simply flies by. Maybe that is a good thing? Shows how good this film was!

GO CHECK IT OUT!

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?

The future of movies doesn't seem too bright since all we're getting are remakes, adaptations and unnecessary prequels/sequels and that's why original stuff like SOURCE CODE can really make my day.

Honestly, the trailers and initial premise didn't seem promising; some soldier can travel back in time and has to stop an some evil terrorist from bombing America. At first glance it looked more like some patriotic Steven Segal movie written by Tom Clancy with a higher budget and better actors. And then you watch it.

Like INCEPTION, this is one of the few movies that you can't spoil since even the smallest detail could accidentally reveal a twist or two. The story itself is a very original blend of thriller, sci-fi and drama and it works. Full of unseen twists and with a high octane pacing, SOURCE CODE will keep you wanting for more as each answer is slowly revealed. The script helps too but its the actors, who deliver the lines well, who drive the movie into emotional levels. My only problem with the film is some weak foreshadowing but it thankfully doesn't affect the movie in a bad way and to give any more details would spoil the film.

To keep it short and to avoid accidentally spoiling a plot detail or two, SOURCE CODE is a must watch. It's one of the few original films out there in a market full of crap and it's definitely worth your money. It's just a pity that Hollywood doesn't seem to be supporting these kinds of films.

Another original sci-fi movie in the list, a nail biting thriller which will keep you on the edge of your seat throughout the movie. The only drawback maybe it's just 90 mins in length. However, this movie gets straight to the point without wasting any time for setting up the story.

Though it's an original sci-fi movie, it doesn't go into the technicality and makes it complex. It's simple and to the point. If you want to watch a fast paced thriller, you can consider this for sure.

English Director Duncan Jones brings to the audience a nail biting thriller as well as beautifully directed movie.Source Code revolves around the concept of creating a parallel universe through time travel.

Jake Gyllenhaal plays the character of Captain Colter Stevens a pilot in U.S Army .Colter wakes up in a train with a woman Cristina(Michelle Monaghan) in front of her whom he has never met before .The last thing he remembers is fighting a battle in Afganisthan.This completely confuses Colter who later discovers that everything about him as changed.The train he was on get's blasted and Colter wakes up again in a capsule this time a woman name Goodwin beautifully played by Vera Farmiga talking to him and trying some memory regain techniques .Colter later learns that she is a member of some secret organization that has built a program known has source code that can connect to anyone's brain and access some-part of their memory .This enables them time reassignment which can create parallel reality.

The chief-head of the organization Dr. Rutledge played by Jeffrey Wright is very stubborn and mean and wants to accomplish mission at any cost.

The movie can make viewer fall in love with each character .Cinematography is beyond satisfaction .Actor Jake Gyllenhaal takes the character to a different level .The concept of the movie at a time will seem abrupt which is completely acceptable in a sci-fi movie .The movie will keep it's audience on their toes .This master piece was nominated for 8 awards and won the COFCA award for best original screenplay in 2011.
