Source Code

What would you do when you have 8 minutes to spare before everything goes kabluew? Save the world, Save yourself, call your love ones, do the unthinkable, kiss a girl, fall in love? Non of the above for Jake Gyllenhaal's Captain Colter Stevens in Source Code. He had to re-live the last 8 minutes to find the culprit who blew up the train that he has to re-live in.


Similar to Groundhog Day in some way where you re-live the same day or 8 minutes in this instance,  Steven has to find a way to save the innocent life of the train passengers. Not knowing that the source code is only meant to recreate the scenarios within the train, creating different alternate version to different actions and whatever actions will not change reality. The only trigger for him to get off the scene is to die where he will be brought back to life in a chamber, or so it seems. 


The continuous replay of the 8 minutes seems endless even with different scenarios for him to identify the killer.  Till then, just enjoy the continuous explosion of the train.
