In a future where time is money and the wealthy can live forever, Will Salas (Justin Timberlake) is a poor man who rarely has more than a day's worth of life on his time clock. When he saves Henry Hamilton (Matt Bomer) from time thieves, Will receives the gift of a century. However, such a large transaction attracts the attention of the authorities, and when Will is falsely accused of murder, he must go on the run, taking the daughter (Amanda Seyfried) of an incredibly wealthy man with him.

Critics Consensus

In Time's intriguing premise and appealing cast are easily overpowered by the blunt, heavy-handed storytelling.

In Time is so crammed with provocative ideas it begins to feel over-crowded. Go to Full Review Graeme Tuckett The Post NZ 10/27/2023
Timberlake and Amanda Seyfried lurch from car chases to shoot-outs, to a bloodless romantic interlude, while the script runs out of ideas around them, and eventually settles for a lazy Bonnie and Clyde-inspired final act. Go to Full Review Juan Pablo Russo EscribiendoCine 09/26/2023

There is Hollywood-style action, entertainment, the beauty of Amanda Seyfried as the rebellious daughter of the millionaire villain... and the charisma of Justin Timberlake. Beyond that, not much more. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review Don Shanahan Every Movie Has a Lesson 09/04/2023

The high concept science-fiction played out in "In Time" is as uniquely original, stylish, challenging, and enthralling as it is preposterous. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
