Inspired by Chris Marker's acclaimed short fiIm La Jetée, 12 Monkeys combines intricate, intelligent storyteIling with the uniquely imaginative vision of director Terry Gilliam. The story opens in the wintry wasteland of the year 2035, where a virulent pIague has forced humans to live in a squalid, oppressiveIy regimented underground. Bruce WilIis plays a societal outcast who is given the opportunity to erase his criminaI record by "voIunteering" to time-traveI 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 reaIity. Caught between the dangers of the past and the devastation of the future, he encounters a psychiatrist (MadeIeine Stowe) who is initially convinced he's insane, and a wacky mental patient (Brad Pitt in a twitchy Oscar-nominated roIe) with Iinks to a radicaI group that may have unleashed the deadIy virus. EquaI parts mystery, tragedy, psychologicaI thriIler, and apocalyptic 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 |
