I can't wait for this, mostly just to see JGL do what is apparently a spot-on Bruce Willis impersonation.

I can't not see a Bruce Willis movie. I will go see this just like I will go see the new G.I. Joe movie when it comes out.

It's fun, but I expected more. I think the title and the way they're selling the premise is misleading, but that's all I can say without veering into spoiler territory.

It's not another 12 monkeys is it? I don't want to see Bruce Willis get stuck in two different time loops. Poor guy.

I really really liked it. I think it was shot and edited just beautifully, even if a lot of the plot didn't make sense.

It's nowhere near as alluring as 12 Monkeys. It's way more pedestrian.

i enjoyed it, despite the obvious plotholes ( which is to be expected with ANY time travelling themed films).

Unexpected ending and subplot though. which is cool.


cool enough for me to forgive the always lovely emily Blunt for letting out her british accent for a split second

I gotta be honest. I was very disappointed with this film.

I felt like it could have been edited down to an hour and a half, the first 30 minutes of the movie has nothing to do with the rest of the film, the pacing sucked and they just brought in the plot about the rainmaker too late. There were just too many scenes where I was sitting there going "ok, why are we still here?" The ending too easy to guess. For now on avoid science fiction films with Bruce Willis that come out in September.
