I just saw it. I've always thought Tony Scott was an underrated director; yes, the script may not hold up to closer scrutinizing but it's executed very well. Movies are about fun, they're not supposed to be realistic (like documentaries). Most of Hitchcock's movies were implausible, too (hence why I have that quote of his as my sig). Deja Vu is a lot of fun.

I just finished watching it and quite enjoyed it. It held my interest despite the flawed science in it.

Watched it tonight. I thought the first half was very good. I started to get worried when Denzel drove the truck around and really hated the parts after he went back in time. Shame really, it had great potential.

Just saw it tonight. I'm a huge fan of time travel plots, and I thought it was done really well here. It was fun following all the clues that connected the different timelines also.

Just saw it. It was quite ok. Entertaining. One of the bigger problems was how could those officers allow this one dude even try what he did. Plus the Hollywood ending, of course.

I just watched it for the first time myself. My sister told me about the movie years ago, but I never did get around to watching it until now. I really liked it and found it to be very engrossing. It was the first movie in a long time that really held my attention from beginning to end. Part way in I was having a WTF moment when the movie went in a direction I really didn't expect with all of the science fiction stuff, but I shrugged it off pretty quickly and kept watching, lol. Unlike some on this board, I realize it is just fiction and not supposed to be based on reality.

Just saw it now. I avoided it though (don't like Scott's quick cut, docu-style type of movies), but it wasn't bad at all.

Just finished watching it. I got a headache trying to figure it all out, but at least I was entertained in the process. I love them time travel movies!

Saw it just now with a good friend. It was great! Especially as a PERSON OF INTEREST fan, all of the 'Snow White' sequences were like the early version of POI's The Machine (complete with yellow and white boxes)... And Jim Caviezel here... damn... his Oerstadt was the precursor of the Vigilance (Anonymous) episode arc. Seems Jonathan Nolan was inspired by this.

Incredible film. Well-done, acted, written. Very cool concept. And well-directed by the late Tony Scott (May his soul rest in peace).

Highly recommend this. And it helps to watch it from the beginning (I made the mistake of watching it from the middle many years ago and got confused.) Anyways, Two thumbs up for this movie!
