The Blurb:
” A temporal agent (Ethan Hawke) embarks on a final time-traveling assignment to prevent an elusive criminal from launching an attack that kills thousands of people.”
The movie is well-acted, well filmed and has a style of its own which doesn’t feel borrowed from anything else. Like me, you might deduce the plot and supposed twists/surprises very early on (perhaps I’ve just seen a lot of time travel movies and know what I’m looking for) – but the overall journey is still a good one. There are no scenes where the movie becomes dull, but also none really of particular tension or threat. Don’t believe the blurb – this isn’t a thriller. Instead, you have a solid story, well told, and it isn’t overly long. The only disappointment? The climax is delivered in the manner of “wow, you didn’t expect THAT did you?”… but actually, I did, and I’d known it was coming for at least an hour. It would have been nice to be hit with a real surprise.
