Two Line Reviews - #238

Movie: Source Code (2011)

Plot: Without his own knowledge, a dead soldier's brain is coded (?) into that of a passenger in a train that had been bombed to find out who bombed it and how serious the bombing issue is for the city of Chicago. When the first attempt fails, he is sent on the mission again...and again and again.


Highlights:
  • Not exactly unfamiliar territory for a hollywood sci-fi film but this one was slightly different from quite a number of other such films probably because of the director's idea of bringing in less action into it.
  • Jake Gyllenhaal is aptly cast, for, his show of confusion is convincing
  • The final anti-climax was interesting!
Lowlights:
The iterations were a few too many bogging down the interest factor.

Sci-fi halwah; Interesting nevertheless!
