THE FUTURE IS HISTORY.

In the year 2035, convict James Cole reluctantly volunteers to be sent back in time to discover the origin of a deadly virus that wiped out nearly all of the earth's population and forced the survivors into underground communities. But when Cole is mistakenly sent to 1990 instead of 1996, he's arrested and locked up in a mental hospital. There he meets psychiatrist Dr. Kathryn Railly and the son of a famous virus expert who may hold the key to the Army of the 12 Monkeys; thought to be responsible for unleashing the killer disease.

  • Jesus Blair
    Great concept, poorly executed. There were too many plot holes, and the ending felt rushed.

  • Amelia Phelps
    A decent watch, though the pacing felt a bit slow in the middle. The cinematography was great, though.

    A solid, enjoyable film. The performances were good, though it didn't really break new ground.
