The weirdness of actor Nicolas Cage and the weirdness of science-fiction author Philip K. Dick seem like a natural fit. The premise, taken from a short story by Dick, is a good one: A mediocre Las Vegas magician named Chris Johnson (Cage) can see into the future--but only about two minutes at the most. Just enough to pull off his act and to make some money at the gambling tables, so long as he's discreet. Unfortunately, he hasn't been discreet enough; a government agent (Julianne Moore) has sussed out his precognitive talent and wants to use him to track down terrorists. But all Johnson cares about is a beautiful young woman (Jessica Biel, The Illusionist) that he can see in his future--much further in his future than he's ever seen before. Next has flashes that point to a much, much better movie than it turned out to be. A sequence in which Johnson, clairvoyantly explores all the different permutations of how he might approach his mystery woman is both funny and thought-provoking, and when Johnson avoids pursuers by knowing just the right moment to turn a corner or duck his head, it's smart and suspenseful. Unfortunately, the terrorist part of the plot is utterly perfunctory and precognition is reduced to an action movie gimmick. Somewhere in there is the kernel of a romantic comedy about precognition that's just waiting to be made. Cage gives a solid if unsurprising performance, Moore is basically earning a paycheck, but Biel is unexpectedly good (and her part is considerably better-written than your usual romantic interest); her performance suggests a better future than anyone might have predicted. --Bret Fetzer Beyond Next

next September 7, 2008
It has very unique story, which is completely different from the original story done by Phiilip K. Dick. The special effects are great and have done some very intersting usage of time-travel-ish action sequence.

The U.S / U.K versions suffers from Jaggies aka Aliasing. Looks like a filtering bug from Digital Intermediate (DI) to 1080p master.
average movie that looks good on blu ray August 11, 2008
Next is a average sci fi movie with a decent budget and good performances from top actors. This movie didn't make it to alot of cities big screens in other words it wasn't a hit flick and it had a very limited release evidently. It is out on blu ray and the picture is fine but then almost anything looks great on blu ray. It's worth renting in blu ray if your local store has a copy or if netflix has one for rent but I would wait till the price drops to buy a copy of this one because you can get some real movie classics on blu ray for this price.
 Just announced for Blu-ray April 30, 2008

This is a very underated film that is entertaining and has action and suspense for everyone. A great twist ending that I didnt see coming. I own the HD-DVD version so if the BD is as good, it will look and sound great.
