This is a DVD movie review of In Time, starring Justin Timberlake and Amanda Seyfried.
If you like the premise of a futuristic or new take on the tale of Robin Hood (Steal from the the rich, give to the poor) or the gutsy action of Bonnie and Clyde, then I think you will absolutely love In Time. Especially if you love watching the eye candy that is Timberlake or Seyfried.
In Time runs 109 minutes, is rated PG-13 and is written, directed & co-produced by Andrew Niccol, whose resume includes movies such as Lord of War, The Truman Show, and Gattaca.

In Time is about a man named Will Salas (Timberlake) who lives in a world where the rich get richer and the poor get manipulated by a system designed to not be beatable. And Salas doesn’t like it. But in this futuristic world, everyone is genetically engineered to live to the age of 25. Once you hit 25, your body clock starts up with exactly one more year to live before it counts down to zero and then you drop dead… you die. It’s up to that individual what they do to either let their clock tick out, or figure out how to get more time.
In this world, it’s possible for the rich to be able to live forever. In fact, the balance of this world is predicated on the very system of the people scrambling through their day-to-day routines doing things to get more time. People beg for time, pay for their goods with time, get jobs that give them time, but barely enough time to survive, as we watch Salas working to provide for his mother, played by Olivia Wilde (House, Tron:Legacy), and himself.
