Just turn your brain off XD

moon was better

Agree that Moon was better but this one was a good movie too.

IT WASNT

What didn't you understand?

how did he continue living after she terminated him

if that meme machine turned out to create different reality, how did he manage to connect with her through realities with that email

They never establish that he has a limited time in each iteration. The bomb going off is his only limitation, and the only other time he stops the bomb a train hits him (iirc).

The movie is set up to make you think he can't continue living in a hijacked body, but there are no actual points in the movie where it's established as a hard fact.

Will answer second q next. Don't want the thread to be killed while I write this shit.

I haven't watched it recently enough to have all the details in my head.

He only helped the military woman in the reality he settled in? In all the other realities he either got killed by the bomb, or thwarted it. In thwarting it he got the info he needed to pass it on to the woman before the attack happened in that reality.

Here's the wiki of the final plot points:

Stevens is sent back into the Source Code where he disarms the bomb, subdues Frost, reports him to the authorities, sends an email to Goodwin, and calls to reconcile with his estranged father under the guise of a fellow soldier. He asks Christina what she would do if she knew that she only had seconds left to live, and starts to kiss her. At the same time, Goodwin approaches the airtight chamber that contains Stevens' comatose body, disconnects the life support, and Stevens dies. In the alternative timeline, Stevens finishes the kiss with Christina and realizes that the timeline has become real, contrary to what was proposed by Rutledge. They continue on the train, and then walk through downtown Chicago to the Cloud Gate.

When the alternative-timeline Goodwin arrives for work at Nellis Air Force Base that morning, she receives the email from Stevens. While news breaks about Frost's failed attack, the email informs Goodwin that they have changed history. It also asks her to reassure this timeline's Stevens, who is still comatose and being held in the airtight chamber, that "everything is gonna be okay".

Here's the plot regarding the deal he makes with the military woman:

Stevens catches the bomber Derek Frost (Michael Arden), who leaves his wallet behind to fake his own death, and gets off at the last stop before Chicago. In one run-through, Frost kills both Fentress and Christina, and flees in a rented white van. Stevens remembers the license number and direction, and the authorities use this information to catch Frost, preventing him from detonating the dirty bomb. However, Rutledge reneges on his promise, ordering Goodwin to wipe Stevens' memory for a future mission. Stevens convinces Goodwin to allow him one more try, to save everyone on the train, despite Rutledge's insistence that everyone on the train had already been killed in the explosion.

I think it plays like this. He fulfills his mission in the prime timeline. The other timelines either go as normal (bomb goes off) or he thwarts the attack. All good. The last timeline he wanted to save everyone (the chick dies in the last one, yeah?). Goodwin agrees to let him die in the prime timeline as a reward for fulfilling his mission brief. plus it's looking like the Source Code experience is breaking him down anyway and the whole thing is extremely immoral.

He saves the train, saves the girl, in the secondary timeline. Turns out he can live out his life in the hijacked body. He lets the Goodwin in his new timeline/reality know the intel he gathered from his experiences.

Any of that make sense?

How many times did he rape her?

Not how, WHEN.

Post 4. Last one.

I think what happens is that both the main guy and the SC tech crew really don't know exactly how the machine works, only that it does.

Is it a simulation? Are they just replaying a "tape" for him to live through? Or is he actually visiting basically identical timelines, just staggered a little in time. Or does he create a new timeline each time he goes through the process?

Whatever it does, he theorizes from experience/gut feeling that he's actually changing history. He's creating timelines where the bomb didn't go off and the QT isn't killed.

The SC experience is killing him or having some nasty effect on him. Even with the memory wipe it may not be possible for him to keep going on missions. And again, it's immoral as fuck to have a man be killed over and over again for intel's sake.

So his final deal, having provided the intel needed, is to be allowed to create/visit/affect one timeline and have the QT survive, even if his consciousness is snuffed afterwards. And Goodwin will terminate his broken body in the machine.

Miain guy saves the QT in one timeline, gets lucky in that he can continue to exist. Tells the Goodwin in his new reality about the events of the other timelines, and that they used the SC machine to change her reality for the better. The train incident/white van shit on the news tells Goodwin that the SC isn't a past-synthesizing machine but a dimensional/timeline hopping device. And it's up to her what to do with it. Moral issues still in place.

Main Character and QT enjoy their one timeline together where they both live.

Your son has diarrhea.

you just know

Shit flick

look at that jaw

The film should've ended at the time freeze.

It would've been a perfect bittersweet ending.

this

The movie should've ended with the kiss.

This. Why does every movie have to end exactly the same way? Just once I'd like to see a movie that doesn't have the same tired ending of me pulling my penis out and being escorted from the theater.

cos amerimutts will get butthurt if they dont get their happy ending

worst kino ever?

It was a fun little movie, but yeah, the ending was pretty disappointing.

If it makes you feel any better, jake, his fucktoy, and vera spend the rest of their lives in 6x9 cell because jake sent above top secret information from an unsecured line to a ridiculously secured, tapped, and monitored line.

One of many, many great movies ruined by a bullshit test-audience ending.

lets not get ahead of ourselves

How can we get ahead of ourselves? We are where we are, we can't also be somewhere in front of that.
