57 secondes

Boring. Both leads are unlikeable, and please, did they just get married within 2 days of meeting? What am I missing. And where did she get that Mercedes convertible that she sped off in in a huff? She was quite willing to accept all the little luxuries until she got the zig when he was a non-show for her exhibition. Frankly her "art" was terrible too. Who would buy that rubbish?? Ah, yes Morgan freeman, no doubt with some nefarious intention - what else could explain such bad taste.

The baddies were the best part of this movie. I actually found the constant recurring scenes of the 57 seconds" re-dos a bit irritating after a while. One of them, where he tries to get the safe combination went on forever.

The ending was supposed to make us root for them I think, but it was just plain silly.

5 is generous.

Wow. I'm mind-blown.

Do you know when you are watching a science fiction movie or any movie really and you have those moments of amazement thinking "Wow! I feel like I'm getting smarter after every scene!", "This is so well written!" "This is so ingenious!"? Well, unfortunately, the complete opposite just happened...

It's remarkable how the decision makers involved in this project were able to set up this big scope involving as characters apparently two of the worlds most influential beings, the tech genius entrepreneur! And the pharmaceutical giant!, with the MIT graduate 'chosen one'!, and the movie be so ridden by basically idiotic/childish decisions and set ups. Everything just feels relentlessly cheap. How contradictory.

How to suspend your disbelief when the movie is set within such a wealthy and high-stakes scenario but you have everything surrounding your production (except Morgan Freeman) being not up to par? It just makes no sense.

Next time just tune/humble the whole thing down so that you don't have to simplify every plot point because you don't have the budget or the technical team/energy to make it.

This movie is alright, but derivative.

If you like the concept, but want to see a much better movie, check out "Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time, 2010".

The acting is much better, but I don't want to totally dismiss this film.

The concept is top drawer! Combining AI with a time device, would be a total game changer.

The AI would detect danger at a speed humans aren't capable of, then throw you back 57 seconds to avoid the danger, either manually or by the AI.

It's a genius concept, used a lot in the film, less the AI, he does everything manually.

I would recommend this film on the concept alone, however, it's a waste of Morgan Freeman's talent.

But hey, everybody can use an extra paycheck, LOL!

Sure you have the legendary Morgan Freeman sandwiched in here at the beginning and end, but even he's a lost cause in this flick. Also all the action scenes are laughable. We've all seen movies with large fireball explosion where characters have to quickly run away, or instances where guns are pointed at someone's head, and times where someone gets knocked out, drugged or kidnapped.

I think the writers missed out on the element of flashback - perhaps show some scenes of Franklin's twin sister, so that we can unravel how close the siblings were and how her passing affected his life. Franklin really is a poor character because we can't tell if his heart is in the right place. He is labeled as heroic, but most of the time he uses the ring for personal gain (to gamble) and not for the greater good.

This film is neither bold nor intrepid, and Josh Hutchinson does the bare minimum here. I don't think he's cut out for an action thriller.

One of those films that's not a bad watch if you can't find anything else.

Yeah, it has a bit of a stupid plot, but if you just look at it from the point of view of a bit of innocent sci-fi fun, then it's an OK watch to pass the time.

The script could have been more solid, it definitely felt rushed and like it could have used another draft or two.

Isn't really any rewatch value there for me, it's a one and done type film.

Just don't go into it expecting an avant-garde sci-fi masterpiece and take it for what it is. People are judging way too seriously in these reviews. It's not trying to be Oscar-worthy, it's just a breezy sci-fi thriller.
