About this movie

Executive Producer Steven Spielberg delivers the ultimate race-against-time thriller that will keep you on the edge of your seat! Shia LaBeouf (Transformers) and Michelle Monaghan (Mission: Impossible III) star as strangers ripped from their ordinary lives when they are "activated" as part or a high-tech assassination plot. Through blistering chases and shocking twists they try to escape - but where do you go when the enemy is everywhere?

Ratings and reviews

The plot devices are hilariously implausible, as is the omnipotent antagonist, which tends to make it hard to take the plot as seriously as it takes itself, but there's merit here if you're looking for a visually intense thriller and willing to overlook the many great stretches and contortions of reality this film undertakes to achieve its predictable climax.

Complete and utter nonsense. The characters are not believable, the plot isn't remotely believable (even when suspending reality), the dialogue and the action is bloated with cliches, cutesy one-liners, and abject stupidity. Spielberg must have needed a tax write-off or something. It's unfathomable to me that he would do something this pathetic.

your thing, and you don't mind much about the absence of logic or even intelligent design, then this movie is all yours. (andré r. gignac)
