Army pilot Colter Stevens wakes up on an unfamiliar train heading to Chicago, with unfamiliar people who keep talking to him like they know him. They also keep calling him Sean Fentress. This is because, to other people on this train, he does not look like himself. He is in the body of Sean. As soon as he realizes that he is not himself - the train explodes. He then wakes up inside an unfamiliar cockpit, and receives the message that the train he was on would be the place of a terroist attack. Stevens has 8 minutes to find out who did the attack, going back each time to the exact same situation; only having 8 minutes until the train explodes. Can he do it?
This movie was really, really good. It was all parallel universe-y with paradoxs and things that i will never really understand. The plot was tricky, but Jake Gyllenhaal (who played Stevens, and i love so much!) portrays it so well, making you believe everything going on is possible. It was so gripping, the plot kept moving and there were small side stories that intertwined with the main plot to give it a big picture made it so good. Only downside was that when they were explaining how they sent him back in time, they used such confusing words i didn't get it. But that's just me being a bit picky, because nothing's perfect. except jake gyllenhaal.
