cstewart-24155 Awful. Especially given the cast. The writing was almost incomprehensible and the acting equally bad. This could have been a Leslie Nielsen or Mike Myers parody, it is so improbable.

nadinesalakovv Paycheck is a forgettable movie with a complicated plot. You have to pay close attention to this film to know what is going on, if you lose track even for a few minutes the film will have you confused. The story line is not that interesting, the performances are okay, the best part of the film is the first half, there is some good camerawork and there are a few decent action scenes, there is a very good high-speed bike/car chase scene, but after that this flick goes downhill fast! (no pun intended).The rest of the movie is just a bunch of nothing, it becomes completely uninteresting and you can't wait for it to end. Plus, i don't like the caged bird situation, birds shouldn't be caged pets, they should be in a sanctuary with an open-cage where they can fly around as they please. I know the birds are a part of the story, but the writers could have changed it.Paycheck - The film tries too hard as time goes on and it just ends up becoming really boring. Not a very good film.

donaldricco "If you show someone their future, they have no future. " Kind of blows your mind huh? Well, that is what the basic plot of this movie does! The premise is, would you give up three years of your life, and all memories of those years, for almost 100 million dollars? What if you fell in love during that time? And what if you changed your mind about the money? And instead, traded it for an envelope of, well, stuff? Those questions, and more, are what Michael Jennings must deal with in this movie, and it makes for a pretty good plot and premise! Now, the short story that it is based on moves much quicker and feels like a tighter, better written version of this. But this movie is good, and though the action sequences could be much, much shorter, I think it stays pretty close to Philip K's tale. My only problem with this film is the editing. I think it gets pretty loose with the location of the characters, and twice I was completely dumbfounded as to where the characters were, even after I rewound to try to figure it out! It felt sloppy. But I liked the movie, even the cheesy ending!

geo-kochar The movie started off great. An engineer(Ben Affleck) completes very high-paid tasks and jobs for various employers, but after he is finished, his memory becomes erased, and now he gets an assignment for two, maybe three years. After that time, he doesn't get his promised 90 million and he is getting chased by hit men. A very imaginative story left a very promising impression for the rest of the movie. But, no,that was pretty misleading. After the first great 30 minutes, the movie just becomes an ordinary action film with the story in the background. All in all not a bad movie, but could have been much, much better.
