After his success in playing the character of S
ean Parker in The Social Network (2010),
Justin Timberlake emerged as one of the most talked about actors in Hollywood. The Social Network is not the first film of the actor who is also a singer. However, just after The Social Network Timberlake's acting abilities are able ogled and taken seriously by many film critics the world. The next obvious question, whether acting ability Timberlake in The Social Network is purely an increasingly Timberlake acting talent honed or just because Timberlake was fortunate to be under the direction of a director like David Fincher cold-handed. Two comedy, Bad Teacher and Friends with Benefits, which was released earlier clearly would not be able to benchmark Timberlake depth of acting ability. Proof comes from In Time, sci-fi film starring Amanda Seyfried Timberlake along with director Andrew Niccol (Lord of War, 2005).
Like the films written and directed by Niccol before, In Time is also a metaphor about Niccol view of political and social conditions of today's world that he is wrapped with the presentation of the storyline that smelled of science fiction. In In Time, the world was in the year 2161, when science succeeded in changing the genetic makeup of the human body and make them stop aging at age 25. Due to the excessive amount of human population, discovered a way to reduce population density in a natural way: make age as a valid currency. When someone at the age of 25 years, they have to work to get a life extension of age. Otherwise, after a period of a year since they were aged 25 years, humans will die by itself.
Will Sallas (Justin Timberlake) is a worker who was 28 years old and lived with his mother, Rachel (Olivia Wilde), who was aged 50 years. One day, he saves the life of a millionaire with the remaining more than a century, Henry Hamilton (Matt Bomer), from the pursuit of a group of people who intend to steal Henry's age. As gratitude, as well as feeling that he had lived in long enough time, Henry gave the rest of the life he had in the Will. The death of Henry later became the sensation for some of the security forces who believe that he stole the entire age of Henry and caused his death. Fight, he finally ran from the pursuit of many parties who want a life that he holds today.
Do not be fooled by the synopsis that you just read. In Time contains more branches in the scenario stories of the display. Various social metaphor about the gulf that exists between the rich and the poor, how people in power (read: government) to treat people unfairly, how hard life for those living with a mediocre daily up to how many people in the world forgot the meaning of humanity simply because the material plainly shown by Niccol in In Time. Niccol translate the term time is literally money in this film. When used as a unifying world currencies. A very brilliant idea ... but unfortunately has a lot of rare collisions can be avoided by Niccol which then makes some parts of In Time feels less able to work well.
With a promising premise, Niccol was present In Time by way of storytelling that standard: all the things you imagine will happen in a film that revolves around one character of the struggle to eradicate the injustice that he experienced in life - while also helping the lives of many others - are in In Time storyline. Imagine the story of Robin Hood. And mix with the story of Bonnie & Clyde who started walking along with the creation of a chemistry between Will's character by character, played by Sylvia Weiss Seyfried. The only thing that made the difference in this story is the background of the time when this story takes place and the reimbursement of money to be time managed to bring the futuristic impression in this film.
Apart from the sides of these weaknesses, it must be admitted Niccol still has a powerful force in directing the visual appearance and the story he wanted to convey in the film. Sure, In Time sometimes have a dialogue that is sometimes too preachy, sometimes too cheesy and sometimes too corny. And since the middle of the movie, the storyline In Time also like to stop growing and constantly repeating the story that has been presented at the beginning of the story. Even so, Niccol able to present it to the system of production and intensity of the story that cukuo able to wake up with convincing. This makes 115 minutes of duration In Time was still able to attend so charming.
Material provided by Niccol, admittedly, does not provide sufficient space for the actors to be able to display their dramatic acting appearance adequately. Even so, Timberlake, Seyfried and Cillian Murphy managed to give their best to revive the characters they play. Chemistry created between Timberlake and Seyfried also running so closely. The supporting actors and actresses, like Wilde, Bomer, Alex Pettyfer and Vincent Kartheiser also appeared in the appearance that does not disappoint, despite the lack of time given to the characters they play to develop in the story.
Although sometimes feels present with the way the story is too rigid and monotonous, and with a row of dialogue sometimes sounds so ridiculous, In Time fortunately still able to perform with the intensity of the story is so preserved and most of all, with the support of the filler acting class acting department this film . To be honest, the premise of this film which tells how to become the most precious time and money replacing a source of strength is a very interesting premise. And although Andrew Niccol then fail to develop a premise into a story of a classy way, In Time must be admitted will still be able to entertain a lot of people who witnessed it.
