“What would you do if you knew you had less than a minute to live?”– says Jake Gyllenhaal as he stares at Michelle Monaghan waiting for the moment he knew was about to come. He was in a position where no man had ever been in, and he knew things which made no sense. All he knew that he had 8 minutes to get some answers and end a catastrophe which seemed impossible to be done. Jake Gyllenhaal stars in the science fiction thriller Source Code directed by Duncan Jones, a talented new director whose debut Moon (2009) had made quite a stir in the film industry receiving mostly positive reviews. 

As a follow up, his 2011 Source Code has again proved his competency as a good director, the story is so fascinating and by the end it may seem a little complicated for the audience to fully accept it or even remember it.

Nevertheless, the plot will not let you down. Thanks to the intense score of the movie, the very first scene builds up for a suspenseful atmosphere. The plot starts with a mystery and will constantly make questions rise in your mind. 

Even the character developments are neatly staged so that you can get to understand it as the mystery unfolds .Source Code will keep you on the edge of your seat; it has the perfect pace will the right amount of thrillers as well as romance.

The chemistry between Jake Gyllenhaal and Michelle Monaghan which was developed within a  short time also seemed believable .It is an action sci-fi flick but as the story goes on the emotions and twists involved gives the movie a more different feel to rather than just explosions and the typical save the world experience.

Co-stars with Jake Gyllenhaal in Source Code also include Vera Farmiga, Jaffrey Wright, along with some special guest appearances including stand-up comedian Russell Peters.

The less is told about the story, the better it would be. It starts with Jake Gullenhaal as Colter Stevens an American Army helicopter pilot whose last memory is flying in Afghanistan, but he wakes up on a commuter train. He soon figures he has a complete different identity with a strange mission given to him.

Source Code is a must see because it deals with a deep concept which is intelligent, intriguing, and indeed original.

All in all Source Code is entertainment at its best.
