Source Code (Duncan Jones, director of Moon)

Post by grim_tales »

This looks good - interested in seeing this one.

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0945513/

Haven't seen Moon yet, but Source Code sounds a bit like a game I recently played called Time Hollow. :)

Plot: An action thriller centered on a soldier who wakes up in the body of an unknown man and discovers he's part of a mission to find the bomber of a Chicago commuter train.

I can't see why it would be so bad, considering how tremendous Moon was.


It could be the studio have tried to make the film look like something it's not in the trailer.
Perhaps Jones' style is too subtle for Hollywood (wouldn't be surprising).

Or, he could be out of his depth (in regards to the Hollywood machine) too early and ended up on set just to shout Action and Cut...

I felt the film's trailer revealed and appeared to spoil too much but the premise looks interesting.

i watched Moon once and immediately sold it on.it wasn't a bad film but certainly not the great movie i'd heard about and couldn't see myself wanting to watch it again in a hurry.

I agree, I gave Moon a second watch last night in anticipation of going to see Source Code, and I still feel it's no more than a 3.5/5.
