Something a little bit different.
By Not so Silent Bob from Edinburgh , 27 Sep 2007[Highly rated reviewer]
Now this might not be everyone's cuppa. However it is original and well directed. The soundtrack effectively compliments the action and I was well impressed with all involved. Be brave and enjoy.- Was this review helpful to you?

12 Monkeys
By Tellyanntut (1 review) , 23 Nov 2012A fast paced film which keeps you on your toes. Brad Pitt was very good in his role which was not his normal, type-cast parts. I thought he was convincing and engaging. The plot was not too complicated but I recommend you pause the film if you leave the room as it would be difficult to pick back up.- Was this review helpful to you?

Madness and Mystery
By a customer , 19 Oct 2012Bruce Willis comes from the future to present day to try and stop the release of a virus that in the future kills millions of the population. He travels between the present and the future whilst a psychologist (Stowe) tries to fathom out his story and behaviour. What seems to him just days, is years for Stowe as 'time jumping' works.
Whilst in an asylum he meets Brad Pitt who is raving mad but helps Willis to escape. Pitt then becomes integral to the plot further on in the story. Stowe starts to wonder if there's more to Willis' story then first meets the eye.
The film shows the outcome and the true meaning of the 12 monkeys.- Was this review helpful to you?

Twelve Monkey and two top actors.
By Matius (1 review) , 23 Sep 2012Twelve Monkeys! Ok firstly Bruce Willis and Brad Pitt as usual are quality. The film is worth watching just for them, especially for Brad Pitt as a nut case!
The concept of the film is great however, the future/past scenes are a tad annoying with poor acting and over the top props (giant magnifying glass).
It's the kind of film you need to have patience with. Allow the film to unfold and just go with it. Again the story is interesting, it's like 'de ja vu' with the time travel event changing plot.
Get this film if you want something different and keep an open mind.- Was this review helpful to you?

A Great Film
By Tansxxii (2 reviews) , 08 Jul 2012This film is one that I originally had on VHS. Bruce Willis and Bradd Pitt pull off some low key but brilliant performances in this film. Highly recommend it- Was this review helpful to you?
