Source Code
Serviceable as a generic action film with a sci-fi lilt. The sci-fi bits and several subplots don’t really hold up to even passing thought, which is a shame. It’s a pet peeve: I don’t really get why you have a bunch of exposition to explain the science, and then don’t bother having the characters act consistently with it at all.
The overall plot was pretty predictable, but moment to moment you couldn’t really tell where it was going, and Jake Gyllenhaal pulled off his role really well.
