It missteps from time to time with its narrative and tone, while also stumbling badly at the conclusion.

The concept behind it is fine, but the execution is terrible.

Tamahori and the phalanx of writers implode Dick's intriguing premise into a pedantic thriller.

Nobody said this had to be great art, but why couldn't it be a satisfying thrill machine?

This busy sci-fi thriller often seems like a page full of equations rendered meaningless by an early misplaced decimal point.

It's debatable whether Cage's supernatural ability is any more interesting than his strange coiffure.

Someone that can change the future like Cage does here is a bit like Superman, but without any Kryptonite . . .

Suffice it to say that I'm a big time warp movie fan and this is a good one.

Another failed attempt to bring Dick's deliriously paranoid mind-set to the screen.

Philip K. Dick is credited as the source of the film. That poor giant of SciFi has been more abused posthumously than anyone else of his genius.

Yes, Cage is woefully miscast, but he isn't what derails the movie.

Despite a distracting hairdo, Nicolas Cage delivers a solid performance in this fast-paced actioner.
