It's a hard movie to hate, just one that's far too easy to forget.

Full Review | Mar 24, 2007

| Original Score: 1/6 | Feb 3, 2007

Take away a couple of neatly staged action sequences and you're left with a callously measured slab of US jingoism that deals with the most horrific human tragedies in the most lunk-headed and insulting way possible.

| Dec 30, 2006

It's Denzel himself, ambling through the nonsense with just the right degree of twinkling insouciance, who keeps you watching. Good fun.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Dec 30, 2006

I felt cheated.

Full Review | Dec 4, 2006

Nobody does vapid bollocks as enjoyably as Tony Scott, and while this isn't as inventive as Man On Fire or as compelling as Crimson Tide, it's still the right side of dumb.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Nov 29, 2006

Rarely have [producer] Bruckheimer and [director] Scott been so upfront about insulting people's intelligence.

Nobody looks cooler walking in slow motion through a crime scene while wearing sunglasses than Denzel Washington -- but even the great Denzel can't save Déjà Vu.

Full Review | Nov 27, 2006

The fleetingly satisfying Déjà Vu is ultimately a self-fulfilling prophecy.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Nov 24, 2006

Pretty dazzling, as action adventures go, even when it's wildly, almost defiantly, implausible.

| Nov 23, 2006

The movie manages the singular feat of placing a science-fiction premise in a realistic setting, only to render that premise even more far-fetched than it would have seemed otherwise.

| Original Score: C+ | Nov 23, 2006

What gives the film its jolt of urgency is its New Orleans setting. Déjà Vu is the first major movie to be shot there since the city's devastation.

| Original Score: B | Nov 23, 2006

If it isn't the brilliant film it could have been, Déjà Vu still contains enough flashes of that film to make it entertaining while you're watching it.

| Original Score: 3/4 | Nov 23, 2006

Déjà Vu isn't as sleek a genre pleasure as Enemy of the State, but it does have a freaky little trick up its sleeve.

| Nov 22, 2006

Deja Vu attempts to explain the 'science' behind the movie's time-jumping, but in a drama that's contemporary and supposedly realistic, it comes off as cockamamie.

| Nov 22, 2006

The movie's saved by an appealing star, a swift pace and a vivid setting.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Nov 22, 2006

[A] needlessly complicated and confusing thriller.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Nov 22, 2006

Déjà Vu is well worth seeing for its visual brio, particularly the boom-crash opera of the ferry explosion, and a chase scene in which Washington is dodging downtown traffic on two temporal planes simultaneously.

Full Review | Original Score: 2.5/4 | Nov 22, 2006

Deja Vu starts out a lot like an expensive-looking episode of CSI before morphing into a solidly entertaining time-traveling romance.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/4 | Nov 22, 2006

Ed Wood, notorious as the worst film director in history, could have made the $80 million Jerry Bruckheimer time-travel thriller Déjà Vu for about $99.95 and it would have been just as believable.
