In Time, the 2011 sci-film film starring Justin Timberlake and Cillian Murphy from Andrew Niccol feels like a film that wouldn't be made today.
The Big Picture “Original science fiction” is a term that’s lobbied around a lot, but what defines originality? Even a film not based on previously existing intellectual property may draw inspiration from other classics within the genre. Interstellar is technically “original,” but owes a lot to 2001: A Space Odyssey; it’s almost impossible to talk about The Creator without mentioning The Terminator.
Justin Timberlake gives one of his better screen performances as the factory worker Will Salas, who learns that the wealthy community of New Greenwich has been monopolizing time itself. The citizens of New Greenwich have essentially found a way to literally cheat time by making themselves immortal, but they’re not exactly willing to share their resources. The power elite in New Greenwich have exponentially raised prices on time, forcing those who can’t afford to pay for it to literally die out.
Why ‘In Time’s Characters Are So Good Will would’ve risked being a bland protagonist if he was on his own, but In Time has the benefit of a great supporting cast. In Time is essentially a classical noir, and as is befitting for the genre, Amanda Seyfried gets to play the “femme fatale” role of Sylvia Weis. Sylvia is the daughter of the banker Philippe Weis , and is initially taken hostage by Will as a way to protect himself.
