Um OK
James Cole (Willis) lives in a time where disease has ravaged the planet and has been put in charge of a riddle on how maybe he can save the world. He also is given the ability to time travel to try and catch up to the elusive group the 12 monkeys. Along the way we see him run in to an mixture of crazy characters like Jeffery Goines (pitt) who is a pure nut ball but tries to make him believe he can help. The real question is that will he solve the riddle through all the muck and guck and save the world or will we perrish.

movie was not that great. They had a good idea just didn't follow through

A modern classic!
I recently watched the Comedy Central Roast of Bruce Willis which wasn't very good, but did show clips of many Willis films. You forget how many very good films he was in back in the day (not so much now) including 12 Monkeys.

Any time travel film is always going to mess with your brain a little and become more confusing the more you think about it; however, this one still holds up.

Willis plays his again everyman sent back in time to try and discover details about a mysterious disease which ravages the entire world in the future he comes from. Enough twists and turns to keep you guessing and a hilarious supporting role for Brad Pitt.

"Then A Prophet. I love that movie. I think one of the greatest things about films is when they can take you to a very certain time and a very certain place. It’s time travel, its magic. I know nothing about what French prison would be like, I know nothing about it, but I believe every single second of that film. I feel like, after you watch that film, you know a little bit about what that’s like. I know how difficult that is to do. I just think it’s a beautiful honest moment, and I think that he deals with the immediacy of panic and how being panicked can change you and what people will do to survive. Its a brilliant film."

The Borg before Voyager demystified them (3 more)
Great blend of action, story, humor, and character
Seeing the First Contact between humans and Vulcans
Great acting from Patrick Stewart
A few discrepancies between this and Best of Both Worlds (0 more)
Easily Picard and crew's best cinematic outing
The best (often seen as only good) entry in the TNG films is also one of the best Trek films period. The storyline blends both a Borg and Time Travel story in very clever ways and director Jonathan Frakes does a great job at keeping it fun.

Depending on which version of reading order you go by, this is either the 3rd book in the Narnian chronicles (publication order), or the 5th (by setting) and, personally, I found not to be as engaging as the previous 4 I'd read (going by setting).

I think this is also the last time any of the Pevensie children ever travel to Narnia, with the whole plot - concerning, as the title says, the Voyage of Prince (now King) Caspian's ship - owing more than a faint nod to Homer's Odyssey!
