#173. Twelve Monkeys

“Look at them. They're just asking for it. Maybe the human race deserves to be wiped out.“

12 Monkeys is a thrilling and thought-provoking science fiction film that explores themes of time travel, fate, and the meaning of existence. Directed by Terry Gilliam, the film stars Bruce Willis as James Cole, a convict from the future who is sent back in time to stop a catastrophic plague from wiping out most of humanity.

The film is a visually stunning, with Gilliam's unique style and imaginative direction creating a dystopian world that is both fascinating and frightening. Willis gives a standout performance as Cole, a man who is torn between his mission and his growing emotional attachment to the past. The film also features powerful supporting performances from Brad Pitt and Madeleine Stowe, who bring depth and nuance to their characters.

12 Monkeys is a mind-bending journey that will keep you on the edge of your seat from beginning to end. It's a must-see for fans of science fiction and time-travel movies. My immediate rating is 7.5.
