Hey guys. Azà Hub movie reviews will single out exceptional films we believe have financial ideas undertones and review them, pointing out why there are facts and fictions portrayed to note as we have fun in our community.

Today, we look at a 2011 movie, starring Justin Timbalake:

IN TIME - 2011 movie

About the movie:

Plot:
Welcome to a world where time has become the ultimate currency. You stop aging at 25, but there’s a catch: you’re genetically-engineered to live only one more year, unless you can buy your way out of it. The rich “earn” decades at a time (remaining at age 25), becoming essentially immortal, while the rest beg, borrow or steal enough hours to make it through the day.

Trailer


Genre: Action, Thriller, Sci-Fi
Actor: Justin Timberlake, Amanda Seyfried, Cillian Murphy
Director: Andrew Niccol
Country: United States
Duration: 1h 49m
Release: 2011

My Impression
Yes, it's sci-fi and in the movie, your time, is the same currency you earn or use to pay for services and life necessities. And when you run out of it, you simply die.

In the movie, the poor die young, and have little access to basic life necessities. They hustle daily to meet the needed to survive.

But the rich get richer. The system is allegedly rigged.

Now, let's come to our senses:

Is this really sci-fi, or pure reality?

In my opinion, it is not just sci-fi, it is reality!

HOW?
1. Time is really money
In the movie, time, printed and counting on your arm, is money, currency which you earn and spend, and keeps counting down.

In real life, when I work at a job or at my business, a key resource I invest is my time. And the saying that time us money has never been more true. Even when I earn this money, I use it mostly to prolong my life.

Is this still sci-fi?

2. The poor hustle or commit crime to survive. Or else die young.

I see no difference from reality, especially when the poor allege unfair playing grounds for the rich, privileged and the poor.

Compare this with situations in "corntri."
Any similarities?

3. Rich getting richer, could even live forever
Well, with enormous wealth comes better opportunities. Better foreign health care, security, and more.

Is this still sci-fi or reality?

4. Unfair, rigged system.
Hmm, this is the icing. Do the poor and rich play by same rules in our economy?

A poor man steals N200 bread, gets jailed for 20 years.

A rich politician loots the treasury, gets pardoned.

Well, I need my friends on Azà Hub to see this iconic movie and come back here to comment.

If you have seen the movie, tell us your impressions.

Watch it on Azà TV

You can't show people how much time you've got.

Try watching it again. There are some underlying facts exposed about the financial system.
