    Smart, intelligent, epic, fantastic film. Loved it. If director Duncan Jones takes over the Batman franchise then it is in good hands. 9/10

    Great movie. A big part of the plot is stolen from 12 monkeys though.

    Jake "Heath, let me bend over for you" Gyllenhal is in it.

    It sucked.

    Yeah I agree. Great movie? I would have understood, okay or even pretty good; but great? Also it was not a fantasy movie it was a sci-fi in the mold of Denzel Washington's Deja Vu. On the other hand it does have a 7.5 on IMDB which is nothing to sneeze at, so maybe it's just me, but I thought it was merely an okay yet rather forgettable movie that I have no intention of sitting through again.

    Remember when most films weren't part of 'franchises'? I liked those days

    No, I don't get your point.

    I hardly see much similarity with "12 Monkeys" except for the 'time-travel-like fixing the past'. This is a common science fiction theme. Ever watched "The Time Traveler's Wife'?

    Nice film. I normally hate the concept of time travel movies but this one was a bit more plausible in it's conceit...............until the very end at least.

    Liked it much better then I thought I would.
