Collider · 5 hours ago

Andrew Niccol’s 2011 sci-fi thriller In Time is now streaming on Prime Video in supported territories and is also charting globally on Apple TV. The film imagines a future in which people stop ageing at 25 but must earn or buy extra time to survive, making wealth a literal route to near-immortality; its premise draws comparisons with Black Mirror and The Hunger Games.

Justin Timberlake plays Will Salas, a working-class man falsely accused of murder who goes on the run with Sylvia Weis, played by Amanda Seyfried, while Cillian Murphy portrays investigator Raymond Leon. Despite mixed reviews and a 37% Rotten Tomatoes critics’ score, In Time earned about $174 million worldwide from a $40 million budget, with most of its box-office success coming internationally.
