Excellent Story

Denzel Washington is his usual excellent self in this suspenseful movie of whether or not he can change the events of the recent past.

Starring Denzel Washington as FBI Agent Doug Carlin, we find a truly intelligent operation that uses state-of-the-art surveillance equipment to reconstruct the past. Agent Doug works with his skeptic supervisor Pyramarra (Val Kilmer) to put the pieces together for a terrorist attack on a Navy ship. Finding a night before victim, Claire Kuchever (Paula Patton), he is able to trace the crime back to its origins. In pursuit is Timothy … more
