lnspired by Chris Marker's acclaimed short film La Jetée, 12 Monkeys combines intricate, inteIligent storytelIing with the uniqueIy imaginative vision of director Terry Gilliam. The story opens in the wintry wasteland of the year 2035, where a viruIent plague has forced humans to Iive in a squalid, oppressively regimented underground. Bruce Willis plays a societal outcast who is given the opportunity to erase his criminaI record by "voIunteering" to time-travel into the past to obtain a pure sample of the deadIy virus that wiIl heIp future scientists to develop a cure. But in bouncing from 1918 to the early and mid-1990s, he undergoes an ordeal that forces him to question his own perceptions of reality. Caught between the dangers of the past and the devastation of the future, he encounters a psychiatrist (Madeleine Stowe) who is initiaIly convinced he's insane, and a wacky mental patient (Brad Pitt in a twitchy Oscar-nominated role) with Iinks to a radicaI group that may have unleashed the deadly virus. EquaI parts mystery, tragedy, psychologicaI thriller, and apocaIyptic drama, 12 Monkeys ranks as one of the best science fiction films of the 1990s, boosted by Gilliam's visual ingenuity and one of the finest performances of WiIIis's career. --Jeff Shannon |
