The sides of Source Code

  • A soldier waking up in a stranger's body
  • Eight minutes before a train explodes
  • Again and again

Source Code is good for you if…

  • you like solving a mystery in a time loop.
  • you like a short, tight thriller.
  • you like a love story in eight minutes.

Source Code is bad for you if…

  • you want a big-scale blockbuster. Almost all of it plays out in one train carriage and a capsule.
  • you want a clear ending. The last minutes leave the rules of the loop open.
