Hello everyone. I've been watching movies a lot lately. But I couldn't find the opportunity to write about these movies I watched. Today I wanted to start my review with the movie Source Code.
First of all, I must state that I watched the movies I watched with the recommendation of a page on twitter that recommends a movie. If you want to take a look, you can take a look here.
Jake Gyllenhaal plays the lead role in the movie. The actor, who you will remember from the last series of Prince of Persia, Everest and Spiderman, does a very successful job in this movie as well.
This movie, which was released in 2011, had an IMDB score of 7.5 and I think it definitely deserves it. The subject of the movie is science fiction and action, but it also contains a bit of romance.
Let's move on to our movie now.
Introduction
When Colter Stevens wakes up, he finds himself on a train ride, in someone else's body. Eight minutes later, there is a huge explosion on the train. When Colter Stevens wakes up after everyone dies, he is inside a capsule and strapped to the capsule. Colter Stevens is trying to understand what has happened, and at that moment, a small screen opens in front of him and a woman is communicating with him.
The woman, Colter Stevens, says she only has 8 minutes and within that time, she has to find the bomb on the train and sends Stevens back to the train.
Explanation: "The technology that allows Stevens to die each time, then return to the capsule and be sent back to the train, is called Source Code. And this is a program developed by the Government or the Ministry of Defence. Thanks to this program, you can pass into someone else's body and live 8 minutes of their life. In this way, especially terrorist incidents will be prevented."
Stevens finds the bomb with the clues he gets on the train he goes many times, and finally they are able to prevent the explosion. In fact, its purpose is to prevent the bomber's further actions with this explosion.
And most importantly, Stevens actually changed the past. Stevens, who previously had half his body severed and only a part of his brain is alive, is now in someone else's body and alive.
Evaluation:
Some movies are pretty easy to describe. There is usually a plot and characters, and the movie progresses from the beginning to the end. In fact, you can easily predict the next moment in the movie. Some movies are also a bit difficult to understand and explain. It is built on forcing your mind and logic and can surprise you greatly. The movie Source Code was also a movie that surprised me.
The movie takes place only on the train and in the capsule, and it never bores the audience.
Surely there are people who watch this movie. For those who haven't watched it, I'm telling you: It's a movie you can watch with the taste of Inception or The Prestige. I really liked this movie and my rating is 9.
Criticism: The only criticism I can make of the movie is what happened to the man Stevens had gotten into. His face appeared in the mirror only a few times throughout the movie. And Stevens will continue his life in that man's body. This part of the movie could have been done better.
