Lutando contra o Tempo

Well I saw this movie about 3 months ago and as I am a big fan of Neal NcDonough, looked forward to it a lot. I must say first of all that I thoroughly enjoyed the film, although Cuba Gooding Jnr was not the best actor for the main role, the story was great and the twist was enjoyable. I think the last film i saw Cuba in was hardwired and I wasn't very impressed by his role but once again i did enjoy the story.

I do believe that a big name actor in the main role would have made this a lot better along with some other recasting, but all in all very watchable, not B-grade by any means and definitely an enjoyable watch. Im surprised this went straight to DVD as I think it would of done well with some good marketing at the cinemas, but none the less I hope lot's of people go out and hire or buy this one and hopefully enjoy it as much as I did. Maybe if it had received a bigger budget it would have rated higher among most viewers, I give it a 7, which whilst fairly high, is fair I believe. it definitely had potential but even though it never reached it, it was still a very noble attempt with a great storyline.

Wow!!! What a Great story...too bad it is all I can say on it's behalf...very poor casting...lacking in color...intriguing; brings you to the end...not a movie I would keep in my library...I wonder if a Nicholas Cage or a Bruce Willis could of punched out the film...I believe so...Sorry Cuba...Not great...But an Excellent Story...

Neil stole the lead role here and even there it was poor...I feel as though I was watching a B movie and was constantly waiting for a moment where I would of been surprised...did not happened...the surprise for me was not in the actual movie...but in the story...which is too bad because it is a great story...and had potential to be a great movie...

(2011) Ticking Clock SCIENCE FICTION THRILLER/ HORROR

Another straight-to-rental Cuba Gooding JR vehicle and I must say by using a 'fast- forward' button on some boring parts while playing, this "Outer Limits- like" flick is not half as bad as some people portray it to be since it's supposed to be a film and not a 45 minute TV episode. Anyways, Cuba Gooding JR plays a reporter, Lewis Hicks who happens to come and visit a close friend, only to find that she's been dismantled by a serial killer who has the ability to go back in time by using a time traveling instrument. Of course, the police do not believe him as some assume he might be the one whose doing it. They're plenty of plot holes with a very incompetent police force, but sometimes the few "memorable" debate exchanges about other evil people such as Hitler and Charles Manson can overshadow the shoddy handling of the rest of the film. This movie also reminisces 2004 "The Butterfly Effect", "The Cell" and "Shocker"

An investigative reporter (Gooding) comes home to find his girlfriend brutally murdered and chases the killer (McDonough). After finding a diary with names and dates of future murders he tries to stop them. Most of the time B movies like this one are boring and drag on and on to a lame conclusion. This one is a rare exception. This movie had me riveted and second guessing myself all over the place. A very original movie that has a huge twist in it that could have ruined it, but was done so well that it actually helped make the movie better then I was expecting. Very tense in some parts and will keep you hooked until the final frame. A MUST SEE, even for non horror fans. A very original, surprising and enjoyable experience.I give it an A-

I actually ain't a stiff who pretends like every movie I see is the worst movie ever made. I've seen a ton of movies. So I know a horrible movie deserving of a 1 or 2 when I see 1. Yes we all have dif opinions but not to the point where we should ever give a watchable movie with enough good in it as a 1 or 2. Those are the type of movie you turn off imo or at least wish u had. In no way was this movie that bad. There was a enough to keep you interested til end. Enough suspense, drama & decent story if your into these kinda movies. If you are not into these types of movies, then you really shouldnt be giving an opinion since you are clearly bias. Or you can give opinion, but at least have the disclaimer that you hate these kind of movies to make it fair to others. Or else it makes rating systems a joke. Obv trolls or losers wouldn't care bout that but 1 would hope your life isn't too so pathetic that you have become 1

I give it a 5 & i don't consider that bad, it's average which makes sense in a 1-10 scale. The acting was decent throughout. I wasn't exactly expecting Oscar worthy performances & don't think they should be a requirement in every movie. Just be believable. I hate when people become hyper focused on plots & sub plots & need everything to make sense. Especially in Sci-fi movies. I mean, they are movies lol. But at same time, the ending kinda upset me a little on the fact that common-sense alone would've told anybody that you cannot end movie like that. It just doesn't work & I would've been such an easy fix & couldve made movie that much better with thoughtful ending. And when I say thoughtful I mean that it wouldn't have taken too much thinking to come up with something almost exactly the same but something that was plausible. It's not enough to ruin the entire movie experience but it's enough to keep it from becoming a pretty good movie worth 1-2 stars higher since the end of the movie most would agree Is kinda important. It's a little offensive they ended the movie the way they did. Not the very ending but what led to it anyways. It's the still part of ending tho.
