In Time is a slick, bright, and fast paced sci-fi action movie directed by Andrew Niccol of
Gattaca fame. It falls into the dystopian future sub-section of Sci-fi, and uses a sort of
Bonnie and Clyde meets
Robin Hood framework. It is set in the near future, with a look that draws from different eras of clothing and style. This creates a solid atmosphere that isn't gritty like most of the other movies of this genre. This cleaned up style is reminiscent of a Michael Bay movie, but it manages to not lose the integrity of being a hard science fiction story. It asks hard questions of its viewers, and has an extremely relevant message of corporate and governmental corruption.
