Captain Colter Stevens (Jake Gyllenhaal) is serving his country in a different and new way to fight against terrorism. A terrible explosion has happened on a Chicago train and Colter has only eight minutes before the incident to locate the bomb and killer or he or she will continue to kill many people. Each time he goes back, he discovers clues as to how he got into the program and why he was selected. Each time he wastes, the killer is plotting his or her next target. Eight minutes could save or destroy many lives. Will Colter find the killer? Why was he chosen? What will happen if he finds the killer, will he go home?
Review: First and foremost, this is a horrible movie. This movie got so many great reviews when it first came out of how mesmerizing it is. Wrong. All he does is go back and forth to the train and then to his station. The entire concept was not believable. The action scenes were less than mediocre and his desperation for the truth was boring. At the end of this film, I was more upset because it didn’t make sense. I wish I could give it away but when you see it, ask yourself how that is possible. Also say to yourself that this does not fit with what the program was trying to do. All in all, I will never see this film again.
Well, to each their own. At least you know not to venture into these kinds of movies haha. I thought it was great on all levels, but I appreciate your opinion, and wish you look with further theatrical escapades.
Thank you J.C Simpson foryour comment; it is greatly appreciated!
haha, any time. Just a quick question on the basis of this review: did you see or like Inception?
I’m very suprised to see a negative reaction to this film. Which makes me aswell extremely interested in your opinion on that of inception
J.C. Simpson,I love love Inception and will until the end of my days. The action,originality, concept, characters and Leo are completely and utterly midn blowing everytime I watch it. This and Kicka** will probabaly always be my favorite movies, unless someone dares to top them.
mind*
probably*
awesome. Well, that being said, you weren’t able to find a sensible ending to Source Code? I mean, Inception was much better, given, but still, Source Code is like a free-spirit: It allows you to REALLY make your own opinion on not only the film, but your and the characters’ reality.
No, sorry. I thought source code was a back and forth movie with stupid repetitious scenes. At the end of the movie, I wasn’t upset I was angry because it didn’t challenge my mind. I was angry because the ending did not make any sense with the plot of story. I really hate this film; though it may have had potential, but to me if failed in all forms of movie entertainment. I would rather watch Gili with Jlo and Ben Affleck.

wow, that’s a brash statement hahaha. Sorry you didn’t like it though, but there were ways it coulda challenged your mind, you just gotta look deeper into it. Imagine it’s Inception: you gotta find the subtle points and use those to craft your opinion.
I do appreciate your love for the source code but I will always disagree. So we will just have to agree to disagree.
Haha, fair enough haha. To each their own :p
