It was strange watching this movie as it is set in a future 2009 which shockingly is not like our 2009. The police wear a combo Judge Dredd/Spaceballs type suits and the world has become a kind of _Total Recall_ dichotomy of haves and have nots. The story itself had a lot of potential that was just never realized. Fascinating time travel concept that if you know the exact time and place a person dies you can snatch the body just prior in a sinister _Heaven Can Wait/The Island_ type of way to keep the rich alive. It just was missing something. Strange use of Anthony Hopkins and choice by him to take this role coming off an Academy Award winning performance in _Silence of the Lambs_. He is barely on screen for 5 minutes and by the time we reach our climax, we don't have enough invested in his character to care whether he ever leaves the "spiritual switchboard" or not.
