"In Time" (2011) presents a dystopian vision where humanity has conquered aging, but at a steep price. Time itself has become the universal currency, dictating the difference between eternal life for the wealthy elite and a desperate struggle for survival for the working class. When Will Salas, a factory worker from the impoverished "time zone," unexpectedly inherits a century of time, he finds himself thrust into a world of excess and corruption. Marked as a threat by the Timekeepers, the authorities who maintain the rigid social hierarchy, Will goes on the run, seeking to dismantle the system that keeps the majority perpetually on the brink of expiration. "In Time" earns its place on a list of Andrew Niccol's best films due to its exploration of profound themes reminiscent of his earlier works like "Gattaca" and "The Truman Show." Niccol's signature sharp social commentary shines through the film's captivating premise, using the allegorical currency of time to dissect issues of wealth inequality and systemic oppression. While perhaps not as tightly crafted or subtle as "Gattaca," "In Time" delivers a potent message about the value of life and the consequences of unchecked power, solidifying Niccol's reputation as a master of thought-provoking science fiction.
