Movie: Next

Husband's Perspective:

This movie was very entertaining. I can't say I am the biggest Nicolas Cage fan, but he did a good job in this movie. I don't know about the choice of Julianne Moore for her roll, but they easily made up for it by having Jessica Biel. It was a creative story and keeps you interested.

Stars (out of 5): 4

Would I watch it again: Yes

Wife's Perspective:

I am not a huge Nicholas Cage fan, however, he gave an interesting performance in the movie "Next". It makes people think about the realities of terrorism and the possibilities of resolving potential threats. Without saying more... rent it.

Stars (out of 5): 3.5

Would I watch it again: Yes+

Our overall recommendation: Rent it

Synopsis:

Las Vegas showroom magician Cris Johnson has a secret which is a gift and a curse which torments him: he can see a few minutes into the future. Sick of the examinations he underwent as a child and the interest of the government and medical establishment in his power, he lies low under an assumed name in Vegas, performing cheap tricks and living off small-time gambling “winnings.” But when a terrorist group threatens to detonate a nuclear device in Los Angeles, government agent Callie Ferris must use all her wiles to capture Cris and convince him to help her stop the cataclysm.
