About this movie

Welcome to a world where time has become the ultimate currency. You stop aging at 25, but there's a catch: You're genetically-Engineered to live only one more year, unless you can buy your way out of it. The rich "Earn" decades at a time (Remaining at age 25), becoming essentially immortal, while the rest beg, borrow or steal enough hours to make it through the day. When a man from the wrong side of the tracks is falsely accused of murder, he is forced to go on the run with a beautiful hostage. Living minute to minute, the duo's love becomes a powerful tool in their war against the system.

Ratings and reviews

I like this premise of working and trading time, and time as currency. This is sort of what is happening now away; except we have the unnecessary need and use of money which is incredible inefficient. so imagine a credit card on your arm under your skin except it's not money; it's time and what you spend comes off of your life time balance. Like getting a bus could cost you 4 hours of your life time balance and a cup of tea could be 10 minutes. I won't give away the plot though.

This is a great film. It starts off as Logans Run and finishes Bonnie And Clyde. You don't need to watch for the acting (it is good though), just watch it for underlying truth of our society.

This film had potential but it wasn't quite as good as it could have been.
