In Time' El Precio de Mañana


                The idea for this movie is crazy good. When metaphor becomes reality, then  things again reflect back to the real life and teach us a lesson. Time is power, time is money. The rich lives forever while the poor die hopelessly along the road.  It is difficult to cross the zone to get to the better neighborhood. Even you have ¨time¨and cross, then people notice you because the way you act, the way you dress and talk. 

It suppose to be a science fiction but it seems just like the real life. The unspeakable yet unbreakable rules that keep the world running in order. Can modern Robin Hood really save the world and make everyone rich? Is it best way to help to poor by giving them free ¨time¨?  Economy 101 question, you don´t just give away food to starving people, this is called ¨dumping¨, not giving nor helping.

Same thing as with homeless people, while the state provide substantial well fares, they become lazy and never would work again. Or some extreme socialism which promotes equality, yet you share the harvest of your sweat with some lazy butts, how is that equal?

I sympathize the poor who dies along the road, but sometimes I think the rich become rich for a reason. We seldom see the effort or sacrifice they make for becoming rich. We are jealous people who can´t stand others success.

Got to say that the movie is not well developed and I left the theater with some disappointment. But the idea of it is very thought provoking.
