Paycheck- 6.75/10
This movie really wasn't as good as I expected. I first figured it would suck when I heard it was a Ben Aflek/Uma Thurman film. Then I heard the story was done by Phillip K. Dick (Blade Runner...) and got excited. Then after seeing it, I realized it was simply a good story but a shitty movie still. Go figure...
I hope this gets remade one day, it's got tons of potential. I just felt like it was holding my hand the entire time. Using no-name, unfamiliar actors alone would have increased the suspense that the it tried to achieve. Who cares if they'd have to cut the budget, the story would still carry itself if done correctly.
