Movie Reviews of 12 Monkeys [Import] [Blu-ray]

Movie Review: Monkey around with time
Summary: 4 Stars

Action, lots of action, violence and a taste for spiders. This is more intricate than the mindless "Die Hard" series. You have a solid plot and a rather good mystery. There is a great cast of supporting actors. Add that to a little time travel and a deadly virus and you have a decent movie.

Bruce Willis is tasked to travel back from 2035 to today (1996) to brig back a pure strain of a deadly virus that was released into the world and wiping out most of mankind.

The are the "what if's" of time and if you look close you may see your self. He gets more than he bargained for and so do we (a movie that will hold your attention.)

Summary of 12 Monkeys [Import] [Blu-ray]

Inspired by Chris Marker's acclaimed short film LaJetée (which is included on the DVD Short 2: Dreams), 12 Monkeys combines intricate, intelligent storytelling with the uniquely imaginative vision of director Terry Gilliam. The story opens in the wintry wasteland of the year 2035, where a virulent plague has forced humans to live in a squalid, oppressively regimented underground. Bruce Willis plays a societal outcast who is given the opportunity to erase his criminal record by "volunteering" to time-travel into the past to obtain a pure sample of the deadly virus that will help future scientists to develop a cure. But in bouncing from 1918 to the early and mid-1990s, he undergoes an ordeal that forces him to question his own perceptions of reality. Caught between the dangers of the past and the devastation of the future, he encounters a psychiatrist (Madeleine Stowe) who is initially convinced he's insane, and a wacky mental patient (Brad Pitt in a twitchy Oscar-nominated role) with links to a radical group that may have unleashed the deadly virus. Equal parts mystery, tragedy, psychological thriller, and apocalyptic drama, 12 Monkeys ranks as one of the best science fiction films of the '90s, boosted by Gilliam's visual ingenuity and one of the finest performances of Willis's career. --Jeff Shannon
