Plot

In a future where people stop ageing at 25 and time is the currency, Will Salas, a poor man, is given a century by a stranger and goes after the rich who hoard time. A time-keeper agent pursues him.

Sinekatalog’s take

Andrew Niccol's thriller, with Justin Timberlake and Amanda Seyfried, has a clever central idea, time as money, and turns it into a straightforward chase film. The social allegory is blunt and the plotting thin, but it moves quickly and the premise is memorable.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
