In Time
Directed by Andrew Niccol
In the not-too-distant future, the aging gene has been switched off. To avoid overpopulation, time has become the currency and the way people pay for luxuries and necessities. The rich can live forever, while the rest struggle to negotiate for their immortality. A poor young man who suddenly comes into a fortune of time finds himself on the run from a corrupt police force known as the "time keepers". From TMDB

60 of 88 · most liked firstI love A Wrinkle in Time and the movie made me cry like a baby because I waited so long to see it onscreen. My kid was "eh" about the book and maybe a little bored with the film. You can share the work you love with your kids, but they won't experience it like you did. They'll have their own stuff.

negative · AI labelView post →I am still dubious! After all, “A Wrinkle in Time” had a kick ass fucking trailer, and I was deeply disappointed in the film. (I instinctively blame Disney rather than Ava, it reeked of executive meddling…) But I’m certainly more excited for Magician’s Nephew.
neutral · AI labelView post →I think we need to have the following debate: Which movie more hilariously mischaracterizes academia: Just In Time For Christmas or The Love Hypothesis. There are definitely arguments for both. @jakemgrumbach.bsky.social if you haven't seen this, you're in for a treat.

neutral · AI labelView post →The thing I always think about with Richard Riehle - apart from his iconic turn in OFFICE SPACE - is that he did Christian time-travel movie TIME CHANGER and Larry Clark's KEN PARK back to back. Haven't seen PARK but he fully commits in TIME CHANGER. Just an absolute pro.

neutral · AI labelView post →There are certain moments from the book that I am DESPERATELY hoping they get right in the film. An adaptation is never a 1-to-1 retelling, but I am so afraid this will botch things the same way the film version of A Wrinkle in Time did.
neutral · AI labelView post →I might have to try to find this movie. Have you ever heard of "A Samurai in Time"? it's a goofy little movie if you need a giggle with some plot.
neutral · AI labelView post →I brought up before that I do fear it'll be like Ava DuVernay's Wrinkle in Time adaptation but I'm gonna wait and see how this it and if Greta can pull doing a fantasy movie outside of Barbie and not just relegated to social dramadies. Cause we do need more women directors doing stuff like this.
neutral · AI labelView post →you remember that Wrinkle In Time movie that Duvernay directed?
neutral · AI labelView post →I read an interesting article regarding Time; hence the film "In Time". "Time has always been the universe’s most mysterious currency. You spend it constantly, yet you can never earn it back." I say, "You can never get Time back, so spend Time wisely" !!! TikTok ⌚

The most famous example is from Somewhere in Time (1980), a movie that this game’s director called a masterpiece. That U.S. movie isn’t so revered in the U.S. So I’d call it a Foster’s beer.
