إثنى عشر قردا

One of my favorite movies..whenever i remember Pitt in "Meet Joe Black", I have to watch this to get the cringe off my face. Bruce Willis is at the top of his game. I'm a huge sucker for time travel movies. Monkies are funny. Combine all these into one flick & i start drooling..get Terry Gilliam to direct & i have a geekgasm!!! BUY THIS DVD!!!! Extras: a documentary, filmographies, & trailer

An uncomfortable, crazy journey through madness and modern society. You wouldn't expect a time travel movie to comment on consumerism and many areas of the human condition. Incredible production and top notch acting, especially from an Oscar-worthy Brad Pitt. Very interesting character development. Love the score as well.

Unique (as are all Gilliam's Films) and deeply confusing (same) story of apocalyptic times and time travel. A lot of the joy (in a virtually joyless Movie) are the visually stunning sets and props. It is a stylish, but depressing look at unbridled science leading inevitably to a Dystopian future. There are strong statements unleashed with weak exposition and it leaves the viewer searching needlessly around for clues and insights and it all becomes rather a chore. But it has enough spectacular imagery and strong characters to keep one interested, if weary. Brad Pitt (channeling Dennis Hopper in Apocalypse Now) gives an overrated, but okay, performance and Bruce Willis and Madeleine Stowe are engaging. But it is a Terry Gilliam Film all the way and enjoyment of his despairing outlook is an acquired taste.

Shockingly Realistic with the condition what we r going through now in 2020.. a movie ahead if it's time. Bruce is phenomenal in this one. One of the greatest time travel movie in Hollywood.

From his cell in futuristic Philadelphia, violent drug-addled criminal Bruce Willis (as James Cole) suffers some terrifying nightmares. Also a mental patient, Mr. Willis bonds with his attractive psychiatrist, Madeleine Stowe (as Kathryn Railly). Mr. Willis is vaguely susceptible to the ravings of franticly loony fellow inmate Brad Pitt (as Jeffrey Goines). Willis fancies himself a time-traveler - believing he's been slipped into the past to bring back information about a virus, which animal rights fanatics will use to rid Earth of its ugly humans. This is a dense but engaging science-fiction comedy, with Mr. Gilliam providing a great visual playground for the cast, crew and viewer. You can see it coming. ******** Twelve Monkeys (12/27/95) Terry Gilliam ~ Bruce Willis, Madeleine Stowe, Brad Pitt, Frank Gorshin
