Review: Deja Vu

Movie
Written by: Terry Rossio and Bill Marisilii
Directed by:Tony Scott
Starring: Denzel Washington, Val Kilmer, Jim Caviezel and Paula Patton


Deja vu is a movie that would never come to pass in any other politcal climate. The film follows Doug Carlin (Washington) as he attempts to solve both a terrorist bombing, and the interlinked death of a women named Claire(Patton). While doing so he is recruited by FBI agent Pryzwarra (Kilmer) into a special task force, this is where the film starts to become uncertain, and stays that way until the end of the movie. Its a rollercoaster for your mind. The last 30 minutes of the film is spent making you wonder if it will end the way you think its going to end, it does and it doesn't, this is no time machine and the explantion for deja vu is kind of long bow, but it was entertaining and put your mind to work, which is always a sign of a decent movie to me. Minuses were Val Kilmer and the "oh my gosh aren't we all good little patriots" feel of the film.

overall all though 6/10 from me and 58% from the nice folks at rotten tomatoes.
