So what happened here?<\/p>\n<p>Basically, there&#8217;s only so far you can go playing off of the metaphor of time and money. And he goes overkill. And then there&#8217;s the terrible pacing of the film. I kind of wish he would have spent a bit more time on the Time Keeper. He was very interesting and it would have been a bit more different than the similar character he created in Gattaca. It seems a lost opportunity.<\/p>\n<p>Plus I was getting pissed off as the film couldn&#8217;t decide if it was Robin Hood or Bonnie and Clyde. Too much homage for a sci-fi film that could have written its own rules. But again, my rating goes for the brilliance of the concept.
