S16 Ep855: In Time (2011)

“Just tell me there’s an alien ship that’s putting time juice in them…” - Eric

On this week’s episode, the 2026 Listener Request Month comes to a close with a chat about the Andrew Niccol sci-fi head-scratcher, In Time!

Would this make more sense if they were robots? How about vampires? Should this just have been a vampire movie? Why is everyone in this movie driving a classic car? Should this film have just followed Cillian Murphy’s character around? Is Timberlake an action lead? And what in the world is going on with all the Time Arm Wrestling? PLUS: The time detectives raid the house of the old lady from The Fugitive!

In Time stars Justin Timberlake, Amanda Seyfried, Olivia Wilde, Shiloh Oostwald, Johnny Galecki, Ray Santiago, Matt Bomer, Zuleyka Silver, Laura Ashley Samuels, Alex Pettyfer, and Cillian Murphy as Raymond Leon; directed by Andrew Niccol.
