Review: `Source Code' Dazzles Until The End
AP Movie Critic
Duncan Jones' first film, the mesmerizing, sci-fi character drama ``Moon'' from 2009, was a marvel of efficiency, tension and pacing. It signaled the arrival of an artist with an appreciation for the past but also with his own clear, unique voice, ready to leave a distinctive stamp on the culture. And it was the best movie of the year according to this critic, at least.
``Source Code'' represents his evolution as a director, now that he has a bigger cast and more expensive toys to play with. It's swifter, glossier, more ambitious. And for a long time, it's a thrilling and challenging puzzle based on a clever idea until it pushes its central gimmick and gets too greedy at the end, that is.
