Ideal genre for creative delights

Fantasy about time travel is an ideal genre for those movie-goers who wanted to tell the world a strange and specifically twisted story. Sometimes the creators of such "temporary" films intentionally avoid special paradoxes. A traditional plot twist for such films is the meetings of the characters with themselves (their parents, for example, "Back to the Future") - this is a rather emotionally loaded move. A few years ago, the viewer had the opportunity to see this by looking at Ryan Johnson's work "The Loop of Time". A year ago, once again reminded how sometimes it is interesting and useful to look at yourself from the side, the project of directors-Australians twin brothers Spirig "Patrol of Time". Actors invited to the casting, agreed to work in the shootings after the triumphant work of directors - the film "Warriors of the World".

Predestination

Non-standard fantasy thriller "Time Patrol" -2014 (actors: Ethan Hawke, Christopher Kirby, Sarah Snook, Kuni Hashimoto, Christopher Sommers) has a lot of advantages: an excellent cast, a puzzling plot and director's delicacy. Brothers Spirig, Michael and Peter filmed a short novel by science fiction writer Robert Heinlein under the intriguing title "You are all zombies", dispersing the literary opus to a feature-length film, while practically not changing the laconism of the original. They twisted the story in such a way that unexpected details unfold throughout the film. The meaning that the "Time Patrol" bears (actors vying with each other to discuss this in media interviews) is deep enough, the film's viewing has to philosophical reflections.

In addition to the artistically scrupulously elaborated cinemainteriors and almost refined compositions of cadres, the directors offered the spectator a strong actor's duel. So, in Ethan Hawke, shining in "Warriors of the World", there was a bright partner - Sarah Snook.

The actor's duel. View details

Although the actors of the movie "Patrol of Time" do not consider participation in the project as a competition, and even more so a duel, only the lazy did not compare the acting demonstrated by them. The beginning young actress from Australia Sarah Snook is very similar in appearance to Jodie Foster. The girl has beautifully reincarnated in her character, which is not at all simple. In the course of the action, he manages to change the sex, while at the same time seem self-confident and restless in two of his hypostases. John in his masculinity is feminine, Jane in her femininity is courageous. For such acting skills Snook could easily claim the Oscar. The character of Ethan Hawke is somewhat simpler, but he also has the opportunity to demonstrate his skills, because the actor plays two versions of his character in one of the brightest scenes of the film.

Timecop

Fantastic criminal thriller "Time Patrol" (actors: Jean-Claude Van Damme, Ron Silver, Mia Sarah, Bruce McGill) is the work of 1994 directed by Peter Hayams. The script is based on a whole series of comics by Mark Verheiden and Mike Richardson. The filmmaker knew the theory of chrono-fantasy perfectly and actively used its workings, so the viewer will not only notice unwitting references to the classics of the genre during the viewing. The advantage of the picture is that the boevka does not outshine the plot. The scenario will not impress the beyond the semantic load, however it is not primitive, it is at least interesting to observe the development of the plot. And the expected final battle of the hero Van Damme with the main antagonist causes the proper experiences and emotions, while indicative Belgian fights fall just in time in the periodically arising dangerous situations.
