I often have a bit of trouble buying into science fiction films about Dystopian futures, such as Surrogates and its ilk, because they are too often about that sci-fi hook. They very rarely go into character, and as such are usually quite lacking. In Time, a film from Gattaca director Andrew Niccol, currently looks to be that sort of film, but it has the makings of something more, and the premise is very intriguing. The future depicted here is as massively alluring as it is dangerous, and that's kind of an exciting possibility. Provided the film doesn't get stuck in a narrative rut with a stereotypical happy ending, I might really like this film.
