Going in to see this movie I'll admit I didn't know a lot about it. I knew basically that time was the currency, and that Justin Timberlake and Matt Bomar were in it. I was pleasantly surprised to see several of my favorite Hollywood people in it: Olivia Wilde, Amanda Seyfried, and Alex Pettyfer. How could I possibly not know all this? That is not important, but what is important is how good this movie was which, in fact, was great. I can honestly say that I enjoyed every minute of it. It was certainly not a waste of time. Haha...
Aftrer viewing this film, I can now report a summary. In the future, humans stop aging after 25 and to stay alive, they must get more time, which is constently counting down on the clocks in their arms, and if you run out of time, you "clock out," a. k. a., you die. Time is either bought, worked for, or borrowed so consequently, the rich have a lot more time, and, in result, live longer. So after certain events, Will Salas (Timberlake) meets this girl, Sylvia Weis (Seyfried) who is the daughter of a very wealthy man. And through following events, they begin stealing time and giving it to the poor time zones. Sort of like time-taking Robin Hoods. This is a very rough definition, but I can't spoil the movie, now can I?
Throughout eluding Minute Men and Time Keepers, there are hints of any "boy meets girl" story. And why not? They are quite a cute couple.
And amid all of this running, shooting, driving, and romance, I was of course on the look out for any fashion
anything. I was not disappointed! I fell in love with this dress:

Paired with high platform heels and evening gloves, it portrayed "rich heiress" perfectly. And good job to Amanda for making it look effortless to sprint in sky high heels, which is anything but, as those of you (like me) who has done so would know. Believe me, not effortless. Along with her outfits, I love her hair. It's so chic and edgy! Since Amanda Seyfried has that long blonde hair, this was a cool change to see her with something completely different. If this is what we look like in the future, we're soooo gonna be stylin'. Even her makeup was gorgeous, but I mean, with those huge eyes what wouldn't look good? Totally jealous... but really, usually with futuristic movies, the clothes just look stupid. But not in this movie, which was strongly appreciated.
So from me, this movie gets an A plus. It was thrilling, action-packed, thoroughly enjoyable, and I will be looking for the soudtrack.
