Movie Synopsis
When decorated soldier Captain Colter Stevens wakes up in the body of an unknown man, he discovers he’s part of a mission to find the bomber of a Chicago commuter train. In an assignment unlike any he’s ever known, he learns he’s part of a government experiment called the “Source Code,” a program that enables him to cross over into another man’s identity in the last eight minutes of his life. With a second, much larger target threatening to kill millions in downtown Chicago, Colter re-lives the incident over and over again, gathering clues each time, until he can solve the mystery of who is behind the bombs and prevent the next attack.
The scoop is Source Code is getting good ratings. I’m glad. Jake Gyllenhaal is a good actor. Loved him as Jack Twist in Brokeback Mountain. He’s pretty darn good in action films and romantic comedy such as “Love and Other Drugs.” Notice he retained the slightly scruffy look for this film. The norm for Jake since he’s the epitome of the scruffy look when he’s not working.
