In Time

Post by FlyingPenguin »

Saw it last night. One of the most original sci-fi movies I've seen in a while. Oh they recycle some old ideas like Bonnie & Clyde, but the future Earth it envisions, where time can be added and removed from your lifespan, and it's used as money, is quite original. It also explores the interesting sociological effects this economy would have on our society.

In a field of remakes and rehashed old ideas, it was like a breath of fresh air.

Highly recommend it.
