In Time

As per my dear follower Nubia Onara's request, here is the review about the movie In Time.

Didn't like it. lol

But before I get to that, let me tell you a little bit about the plot.

The story is set in the future, 2161 to be more exact and everyone is genetically altered to stop aging at 25 years of age and then die one year later. So far so good.

People don't work for money anymore, they work for time. They are paid with time and they pay everything with time. They have this clock on their arm that tells them how long they still have to live.

The main character Will Salas (played by Justin Timberlake) is poor and has to work for the hours he wants to live and so does his mother until something happens that make him go crazy, not accept anymore the fact that the rich people had centuries to live and the poor had to work everyday to earn miserable hours at the end of the month.

But some of the rich people who had 'eternity' to live were not really content with never dying, so a rich guy kills himself and gives Will all the time he had on his clock.

Will then starts enjoying the living-like-you-are-never-going-to-die kind of life and teams up with a rich spoiled/prisoner-of-her-own-time chick. And now they are out to save the world... well, the poor side of the world.

It's kind of Robin Hood, stealing from the rich to give to the poor. Yeah... repetitive... we've seen that kind of story before.

You don't really sympathize with their cause, the movie doesn't really end, or maybe it ends like you think it will. And that's it.

It's the kind of movie that when you start watching you think it's going to be really good. It starts really strong but then it's like the writers didn't know how else to finish it.

It's like a modern Robin Hood. Not horrible, but not excellent either.

P.S.: Now you can decide which movie review I should post here on Fridays!!! Please go to the poll on the side bar and vote :))
