Next (2007) 5/10

Starring : Nicolas Cage, Julianne Moore, Jessica Biel, Thomas Kretschmann
Director : Lee Tamahori
Running Time : 92 mins

Cris Johnson, (Cage) aka Frank Cadillac, is a low-end magician in Las Vegas, trying to hide the fact that he actually possesses the amazing ability to see two minutes into his own future. Unfortunately government agent Callie Ferris (Moore) has found him and wants his help in stopping a terrorist group from setting off a nuclear device in Los Angeles.

This just felt like a cheap version of The Dead Zone. The effects were pretty weak and the storyline relied purely on a single twist. Basically not worth watching unless you’re a die hard fan of any of the cast, and even then you might be better off just watching The Dead Zone.
