Déjà Vu
Called in to recover evidence in the aftermath of a horrific explosion on a New Orleans ferry, Federal agent Doug Carlin gets pulled away from the scene and taken to a top-secret government lab that uses a time-shifting surveillance device to help prevent crime.
Critics Sentiment
Ferry carrying Navy sailors explodes killing 543 people
Doug convinces team to send him back in time
The film plummeted from intriguing sci-fi surveillance thriller to criticized time travel confusion when Doug actually travels back in time.
Déjà Vu starts strong with an explosive opening and fascinating surveillance technology that reviewers found compelling and believable. The film loses momentum in the middle act when it transitions from clever sci-fi premise to full time travel, with critics citing plot holes and implausible sequences. Despite a solid action climax, the overall sentiment reflects a missed opportunity that began promisingly but couldn't sustain its initial intrigue.
