Critics Consensus

Tony Scott tries to combine action, science fiction, romance, and explosions into one movie, but the time travel conceit might be too preposterous and the action falls apart under scrutiny.

It's a hard movie to hate, just one that's far too easy to forget.

Time Out

Take away a couple of neatly staged action sequences and you're left with a callously measured slab of US jingoism that deals with the most horrific human tragedies in the most lunk-headed and insulting way possible.

Gone With The Twins

If one can get past the dubious technical details of the setup, the competent acting should take care of the rest of the entertainment.

Rated: 7/10

Herald Sun (Australia)

Sounds a bit dodgy, huh? Not when an in-form Denzel Washington is involved. He's the glue that keeps this absurdly compelling thriller together as it mashes up the present and the past to intoxicating effect.

Rated: 4/5

Although a certain amount of disbelief suspension is a necessity, the script tries exceptionally hard, and succeeds, in building a credible case.

Rated: 4/5

This makes no sense. When it makes no sense, it is not good.

This is the type of movie critics will hate but every casual viewer finds interesting and entertaining. The acting is solid. No need to explain why this methods of science are not possible… just take it for what it is and enjoy it. It’s a pretty fun movie.

If you are serious about your life and seeking to learn something from movies - this is not a movie to watch. I can't believe good actor Denzel Washington signed for that. This is fiction, miraculous , magical movie with a lot of nonsense points.

Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars

The plot was really confusing and didn't make sense at times, but overall, it was really fun to watch and try to figure out. I definitely recommend it for sci-fi and crime fans!
