Leave the existing world behind and enter into a futuristic world where the aging gene is switched off after 25 and time is money, literally, that many can?t afford in the cutting-edge thriller IN TIME, arriving on Blu-ray and DVD January 31 from Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment.

I love a good movie, and this was definitely one of them! In Time was action packed and interesting. In the future, aging stops and one’s life-line is determined by how much “time” they have. You have to work to get more time. Of course this means many people struggle just to live for a day. We found that out when we saw Will’s mother just drop. I admit, I might have shed a tear or two.
Will helps out some guy that has a ton of time and right before the guy decided he’s lived long enough and jumps off a bridge, he gives all of his time to Will. He goes into a different zone, kind of like moving up in class; until the time keepers realize all of this time that he now has and try to hunt him down, thinking he killed the rich guy.
Since he’s in a different time zone, he finds the daughter of a very rich man and takes his daughter, using her to negotiate for more time, since the time keepers took his.
All in all, In Time was an excellent movie, one that I’d definitely watch over and over again.
