I really like movies with a twist, especially if it deals with trying to tell the future. The twist here is at the end of the movie. However, it ended so suddenly that you wonder what happened to the rest of the movie. If you haven't heard already, Nick Cage is in it as main character who can "see" the future 2 min ahead of him, with the exception of his supporting actress (I'm not good with other names) who permits him to see longer into the future. The reason why she helps him see farther into the future is unknown throughout the movie. The idea is that he's supposed to help stop a terrorist attack, but he doesn't want to because he'd have to be involved in possibly getting killed in order to help prevent the attack (based on his psychic skill). It leads you through this scenario of how it could happen or be prevented (for 90+ min) to then blip you back to the beginning (almost 20 min mark) to wonder how it really ended--based on his ability to see further into the future because of the supporting actress. It's really rather a rediculous ending because it didn't finish.
