In Time

I sort of liked some of the ideas of having to scrounge around to live past a year after you reach your 25th birthday due to the genetic time clock everyone is now born with. And then you have the concepts of the "rich" loaded with "time" units, and how longevity without risk isn't really living, it's simply existing due to some born-in inherited advantage. I didn't like the ease of siphoning off people's time from one another, seems like there should have been more of a intrinsic barrier to just handshake your way into additional time units. Some of the plot points just seem too "set up" for encounters in the final act, too telegraphed, with a narrative flow based on our 2 protagonists (Justin Timberlake's character Will, and Amanda Seyfried's character Sylvia) literally being on the run for half of the film. Even the Timekeeper character played by Cillian Murphy didn't feel fleshed out motivationally speaking.

I give it 2 stars or a grade of C, mainly for its politics, but on the plus side, also for showing us that Amanda Seyfriend make make a decent casting choice as Batwoman (totally has the look of Kate Kane's short red bob, and porcelain skin, though she's a little short and skinny in this film).
