EPIC RATING: 8/10
I'm a huge fan of these kind of movies. You are thrown into a situation where you have no idea of what is happening, and by the time the movie ends, You have solved the puzzle. Source Code is like The Matrix and Big having a baby. Director Duncan Jones does a great job making sure not to give any essential information away until the right moment, when he throws in right at your face. And i don't think anybody could of played the protagonist better in this movie than Jake did. His acting even made me feel like i was on the adventure with him.
Source Code is about an Army Pilot traveling back in time to stop a terrorist from destroying a train, and then Chicago. But here's the catch; He only has 8 minuets to complete this task. And to make matters worse, He has to figure out what his mission is. This movie is a good example of modern day acting and action. Sure, going back and hearing the same dialog got boring about the third time around, but it was worth it. It was essential to the story. And the sub plot with Jake's dad was a nice touch too.
Source Code is a very good movie. The acting is very good, and story line moves at a slow enough pace to make it interesting, but entertaining too. I highly recommend seeing this movie.
