He also fantasized about having such superpowers. The plot of the whole movie is still very compact, after all, the time is calculated in seconds and minutes. I always feel that such a film should be 120 minutes.
After reading some other movie reviews, one of them is quite wonderful, probably saying that the heroine drugged the psychedelic Cage, no matter the minute of the poisoning, the time will continue. The script or the director's arrangement on this point is a major flaw in the film. Many friends don’t quite understand it. Let’s use an analogy: Now Beijing time is 22:33, and Cage foresees that the time is two minutes. Because this is continuous, Cage foresees that the time can still reach 22:37.
Regarding the ending, because Cage and Ace are together, the time to foresee the future is longer and farther. So in order to avoid all dying in the explosion because of his mistake, he gave up his current love, chose to cooperate with the FBI, and temporarily left Ace. It could also be considered a suspense drama. After all, whether Ace can really wait for him in the end is left to the audience's imagination.
Lastly, about foreseeing the future, the reality is that even if I had the ability to choose or avoid this moment as in the movie, then the future will also change. For example, if I killed Li Hongzhang the moment he signed an unequal treaty, history must have changed. The story of this theme, and I watched a cartoon "Sailor Moon" when I was a child. In one episode, a little boy who could foresee the future stopped Ami Mizuno who was walking forward and avoided a construction accident. If not, Ami Mizuno would have been injured in the accident, or died.
Change because of foresight. All in all, it's a good thing. Also a good movie. Recommended viewing.
