The cast deliver one of their best roles in this Groundhog Day (1993) sci-fi action styled film where the film’s original, effective, terrifically written & is one of the best films I’ve seen. (100%) (5/5 stars) (positive)
ОтветитьOoof. Kermode’s line about Duncan Jones’ potential for future success being tied to staying at this scale of concepts and not going deep into large CGI spectacle productions is eerily prescient given how much a departure and disappointment Warcraft turned out to be
ОтветитьTo think that the guy who directed Moon and Source Code went on to make Warcraft and Mute makes me sad.
ОтветитьSource Code was great until the last few minutes, which completely betrayed the central premise.
ОтветитьWhere do they get the Source Code from? Everyone on the train was wasted. Where do they get the data to reconstruct the simulation?
ОтветитьIf you’re reading this, everything is going to be okay.
ОтветитьMark really, really has it in for Michael Bay haha
ОтветитьThat Jake Gyllenhaal has got serious acting chops. Incredibly subtle and deeply moving performance in a great film.
ОтветитьI still think that Source Code was pretty dumb. Not nearly the degree of existential drama that Moon proved the director to be capable of.
ОтветитьKilgore trout
ОтветитьShould've ended on the kiss.
Otherwise a great flick.
The ending was a little too prophetic....
I'm guessing he's not looking forward to World of Warcraft :P
mayo needs to ay more
ОтветитьI don't think it's said enough how articulate and smart Kermode is when analysing film.
Ответитьi agree with you about putting you in the character's spot. for me source code is up there with moon, silent running and 2001, amongst others, where you have a central character in a great narative. as far as fx in films, it's when you don't notice them that there at their best, they're just there to help tell the story.
ОтветитьI see what you did there Kermode ;)
ОтветитьI've got the same little netbook as Mr Kermodes got. I now feel included in this society.
ОтветитьIf they ever do a proper Alien sequel, Duncan Jones should direct it (and Cillian Murphy should play an android and Andy Serkis should play the titular critters...). He's clearly got the chops for it, and he evidently loves good, smart sci-fi. I'd put plenty of money into a kickstarter for that.
Ответить'Moon' was brilliant. If you haven't seen it you're missing a gem. As is 'Source Code'! The best movies have a way of putting you in the characters spot. Jake Gyllenhall is lovable (no, I'm not gay - I'm a man's man! Jake is awesome in this movie.)
ОтветитьIt's better the 2nd time you see it. You can appreciate the way the script is structured and it seems like a more fluid story than the first time of viewing. The cast were well chosen and the secondary plot adds a lot of depth. I'll look forward to the next Duncan Jones film.
ОтветитьVery cool, interesting, intriguing, captivating movie with very interesting story & great acting. It has some similarities with Inception, Final Destination, The Butterfly Effect, 12 Monkeys, Vantage Point, Memento, Deja vu....BUT this film is very unique in its own way. Jake Gyllenhaal, Michelle Monaghan and Vera Farmiga did a great job. It's one of my favorite Sci-Fi films of the 2010's (next to Inception, Prometheus, Tron: Legacy, Limitless, Cloud Atlas, Looper....)
Ответитьlooool
ОтветитьYour comments are flat-out hilarious.
ОтветитьIf your here all week im affraid the club is going out of business.
Ответитьparsimonious, pedantic Pachyderm." yah/no? no sense getting to literal with a little bit of alliteration. :O
ОтветитьI AM NOT POOFY!!!
ОтветитьNot quite as difficult as proper spelling and syntax, apparently.
ОтветитьYou sure like the phrase well crafted. As far as I can tell you said it had great acting and the action was not over the top. That is unbreakably well crafted. Last time i heard Jake G was nominated for several awards for his perfomance so that bit is sound and the action not being to boring that is high praise. As for D Jones big future he sure has made allot of amazing movies in the last 3-4 years. Being Ironic is so very difficult.
ОтветитьWell you sure make a persuasive argument for your side. I mean, compare what you said in reply to what I had previously said. It's easy to see that one of us knows what he's talking about. I'm sure that your lengthy and well-crafted comment will have a bunch of thumbs up symbols next to it before too long.
ОтветитьI thought it was crap..
Ответитьfuckin kermode talkin about goddam inception again..get over it. bleck
Ответить"Source code" was garbage
Ответить"I know what you're thinking! -No you don't!" So true...
Ответить"Source Code" is the best film I've seen in a long time. Great acting along with action that's not over the top. Duncan Jones has a big future, that's certain. His previous film, "Moon" was well-crafted but sort of left me disappointed. Can't explain it, but it just left me flat. Perhaps I need to view it again to be sure. Sam Rockwell is one of my favorite actors. He was great in "A Dangerous Mind" -- another film I liked a lot.
ОтветитьSorry, but the ideas in this film were really silly. The explanation for the mechanism just did not make any sense. I tried to get past that but, the ending directly contradicts the original premise. Surely science fiction should create an internally consistent world and then build on the consequences of it. That was what was so great about 70's sci-fi. Set up a simple premise and then look at the consequences.
ОтветитьI dont think anybody outthere understood the ending. it is just un understandable
ОтветитьJust watched it and when it finished I thought it had only been on half an hour, which means it had taken me in, which doesn't happen often. Very good.
Ответить"every thing will be alright" ...haha you cheeky bugger. i got it kermode i got it.
Ответить@TheSamuraiGoomba The Matrix is a vastly superior film on many levels.
Ответить@JRHartly1984 In what way is unintelligent?
ОтветитьI profoundly disagree that Inception was this incredible cinematic paradigm shifting masterpiece. It's a pretentious film that insists the viewer agree it's deeper and more profound that what it is. To quote Will Self, or at least paraphrase - It's a stupid person conception of a smart person's movie.
Ответить@djeremybolton I definitely agree with you about the last minute. I know they had to establish how Goodwin gets the message, but they probably could've cut to that after the final scene on the train. Although they did have to explain why he kept seeing that big dome thing during the flashes, but they could've just left that out. It didn't make the film any worse for me though, I loved it.
ОтветитьThere are flaws in the logic but if you looks for every single one you are going to dislike this film and it your own fault that you don't enjoy your expirence. Source Code is a really good film, just enjoy it, don't think about it. Believe it or not Inception is not real!
ОтветитьSPOILER SPOILER!!!. Does anyone think that the ending, that two minute phone segment was basically there to lead on to a sequal? It felt a bit random, unnecassary and asked more questions than answered. I hope so because the source code idea could certainly lead to another movie or two.
Ответитьi loved source code
Ответить@Golem29 I'm yet to see Moon, and this new one, Source Code... but I've only heard good things about both movies, so will give them a go. Finally someone's making films with adults in mind!
Ответить@HisLordDudeness I heard it was utter shite. lol
Ответитьtony scotts de ja vu
Ответить@DontTouchMyVicodin Yes I know, but sadly most films are heavily influenced by recent first-person shooters even Avatar.
Ответитьwent to see this yesterday....really enjoyed it
