Review: In Time
4 stars.
The saying “time is money” literally comes to life in this action-packed thriller. In the movie, people stop physically aging at 25 and are only given time to live one year longer than that, when their “clock starts.” Time is their currency: Grocery items are priced by minutes, and workers are paid in hours. Time is the one thing everyone most desires. People who are rich have thousands of years to live, while the poor live one day at a time, hoping to earn enough time each day to make it to the next. When a rich man who wants to die gives Will Salas (Justin Timberlake) more than a century to live, he moves to a different time zone to join the rich. However, when Salas is suspected of that man’s murder, he goes on the run, taking a rich man’s daughter (Amanda Seyfried) hostage in order to keep himself alive. This movie keeps suspense alive, and makes the viewer constantly question when each character’s time is going to run out.
