Biggest Swing

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.
