Want a weird movie night? IN TIME is available January 31st

Wow.
Yeah, let me just start the post out that way...
Wow.....
So, I saw that Justin Timberlake was in a movie... Not really that big of a deal... (Nothing against him, just wasn't ever a big N*SYNC fan... ) But, once I saw the previews for this movie, I really wanted to see it...
Have you seen the previews?  The best way to see if you have...
You see Justin Timberlake and three women.  They all look about the same age...and you hear something about "this is my wife, this is my daughter and this is my mother."  (Don't quote me on that word for word, but it was something along those lines...

As soon as I saw that, I just had to know what in the world was going on.
So...........
I get the movie, In Time, for review.
Well... How do I put it?
Odd... but, it for sure sucks you in!

Basically, you live to be 25... and then time is sort of against you...
Your "money" is "time."
You get paid for your job in time... You pay for food/bus fare in time...
You have a scanner in your arm... and when your time runs out...  You die.  You can look on your arm and see your personal time clock... You better find a way to make more time or you have 5 minutes...
Also, once you hit 25, you never age again either...
Oh, and get this... the "higher ups" with all the time, they don't think there is enough room in the world for everything, so they are constantly raising the price of living... literally!
One day, it costs "a week" the next day... same thing is "two weeks"
Crazy!
It was so weird... but, I had to watch it until the end.
Do I recommend it?
Yes!  I even tried to get Marc to watch it the following day, but he was too tired from work.
I have been telling people I see about it...
(There is a big sign when you walk in Wal-Mart and it always gets me talking!)

Side note:  I am never really a "Sci-Fi" fan, but this movie might have me changing my mind!

SYNOPSIS:

Let the countdown begin.  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.  Featuring an all-star cast including  Justin Timberlake (The Social Network), Amanda Seyfried (Mamma Mia!) and Cillian Murphy (Inception), the film puts an innovative spin on class warfare and explores the corruptness that lies within.

In the future, time has become the ultimate currency and genetic alteration has allowed people to stop aging at 25 years old.  Upon reaching 25, the countdown begins and in order to stay alive everyone must work to buy themselves more time or die within a year.  The rich can buy their way out of the situation, while the rest are left to negotiate for immortality.  When a struggling young man, Will Salas  (Timberlake), comes in contact with a “millionaire,” he is gifted more time than he can imagine.  Falseley accused of murder, Will is a fugitive on the run and becomes determined to bring down the entire system by any means possible.

Showcasing stunning visual effects and gravity defying stunts, the IN TIME Blu-ray is loaded with bonus materials including an exclusive featurette “THE MINUTES” to discover the origins of the film’s time based society, deleted and extended scenes, and access to the enhanced IN TIME THE GAME APP.  DVD special features include deleted and extended scenes.  IN TIME will be available on Blu-ray for an average retail price of  $24.99 and on DVD for $19.99, respectively.
