Review: ATF agent Doug Carlin (Denzel Washington) experiences a complicated version of that feeling that only the French seem to have an expression for “déjà vu.” He discovers that only he has the ability to prevent a tragedy from occurring and he races against time, and logic, to do so. A love interest (Paula Patton) is at stake in the edgy drama that unfolds.

Director Tony Scott takes on a big project. He has to get his audience to temporarily put their rational beliefs of time and space on hold for a few hours, so that he can tell his tale in which time and reality bend a bit. The good news is, it works. Fine performances, great on-location shots of New Orleans and the fine choice of Val Kilmer as the villain will keep you balance on the edge of you seat for the duration.
