This like David Lynch's Mulholland Dr.

I just saw the movie, and I was really impressed. Great acting, great dialog. Everything was really good. Now the ending reminded me of Mulholland Dr. In MD, Naomi Watts takes her surroundings and places them into her dream. In Stealing Time, he takes his surroundings and puts them into his thoughts before his death. Even the little things that he notices are in his little bank robbery thought. I'm not saying either one of those movies are bad, because MD is my favorite movie, I'm just making a comment. I hope I'm not the only one who thinks this.

yeah, this movie reminded me of "november", "stay", & "the jacket." all of those movies **SPOILERS** take place at the moment of someone's death, right when they're on the verge of dying. so the whole movie is basically in their head, things they're taking from their surroundings &/or memories from their lives. i've seen so many movies like that that i usually figure out the "twist" way early in the movie, but this one truly got me! i didn't guess or figure out beforehand that he was actually dead/dying!
