Another film I'll try to get to this week is the recently released dystopian science fiction thriller 'In Time'. The story takes place in 2161 where genetic alteration has allowed humanity to stop aging at 25. However people are required to earn more time after turning 25 or die within a year. In this future time is money and society has been split between two vastly different class systems. Those poor who work constantly just to add mere hours to their lives and those rich who live forever without having to work at all. The film revolves around character Will Salas who is born in the ghetto working just to survive another day. When he is given the chance to leave his meager existence and live among the rich, Will discovers the injustice in society and decides to rebel against it.
