Load of rubbish!!

Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

A story that's too fascinating to pass by...

Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

I hated 12 Monkeys!!! I watched 2 hours of this crap and throughout it all there was NO resolution. Nothing!! Just some retard travelling through time to find out the source of the humanity's near extinction and ending with NOTHING!!! And all of you think this is such a brilliant film. Pssssshhhhh!!! Ha! The only thing this movie has going for it is the acting performances of Brad Pitt and Bruce Willis and that seems to be one of the highest consensus as to why this film is liked. I also liked some of the technological aspects of the movie as well. But the story, conception and plot is abysmal and the pacing is slow as hell. And I don't exactly get the message this movie is trying to bring, if there is any. 12 Monkeys is worthless in every way possible. 129 minutes of bull$#!+ with an idiotic conclusion. Blow my butt.

Do you know that movie that you watch without knowing what to expect and it surprises you a lot? I felt like Twelve Monkeys, I wanted to see the movie, but I had no expectations, even though I had a great cast and Terry Gilliam in the direction, but while I watched, I realized how obsessed I was with the movie, I did not blink, he has a slow tempo sometimes, but it does not get tiresome, the soundtrack is great, highlight for the theme song that is incredible, Terry's direction is excellent, showing that he is a great director, the cast is very good, Bruce Willis great, Madeleine Stowe is too much in this movie and Brad Pitt does one of the best performances of his career, the film is not confusing even using time travel, and the end surprised me when Twelve Monkeys is a masterpiece, one of the best films of the 90's and one of the best in science fiction. Note 100

This movie has great cast, and sound like so promising, but in fact the film is not as good what you think. I even don't know why they made this film.First, the story begin with Cole who did time travel. Then, the story try to convinced us that time travel doesn't exist. It's just Cole imagination, he is crazy guy same with Jeffrey. But suddenly the story change when Dr. Rilley found fact that Cole really do time travel. She even help Cole finishing his mission. So the story begin with their struggle. This movies seems giving us a lot of puzzle... how can Jeffry release from hospital and suddenly become 12 monkeys leader? We know he is crazy guy. Again, the story try convinced us with Jeffry want spread the virus so Cole and Rilley try to stop them... but the fact he is not... what he's doing? His insane just for animal freedom... and who is the real enemy?? The Dr. Goines' assistant.. what the hell... that guy just show in short time suddenly become the real enemy WITHOUT EXPLANATION!And the worse thing ever in Aiport scene. After almost 2 hours this film run and guess what... their struggle FAILED WITHOUT SOLUTION! Come on 5 million people going to die when the virus spread but what we got... Just Cole die in policeman's hand when he try to stop Dr. Goines' assistant runaway... after that what the police doing? nothing, what Rilley doing? nothing... the policemen even don't suspicious or try to find out about the happened... and this movie ending without problem solving. We even don't get news about Jeffrey and the gang or even Dr. Goines himself.I can say this film may be the best performance by Bruce Willis in his whole career but his acting can't save this story. Very surprising watch Brad Pitt act like that, he give great performance but a little bit overacting sometimes. I love the girl who play Dr. Rilley, so beautiful. But I have big complaint why they put Christopher Plummer here ? He did good job as supporting actor but his character as Dr. Groines is useless and not worthy. His character doing nothing during this film run.So I give 8/10 for the acting and 4/10 for the story

I wanted to see this since it was in the theaters 20 years ago, but somehow it never came to the table. I missed it in theaters, then I did not have VCR, then VHS became obsolete but I did not have internet till 2010... and so on till today. I was really dead set, darkened room, good sound, snacks, all in order and... complete disappointment.
