Jones proves with Source Code that he understands how to pace a traditional thriller, and Gyllenhaal's display of comedic chops, confident bravado and tender sympathies prove that the 30-year-old actor has arrived at leading-man status.June 20, 2013
Jones ... has a light touch of the sort that enlivens the material without trivializing it-think of it as tongue delicately navigating the perimeter of cheekMay 03, 2013
Fantastic pacing, an excellent performance by Gyllenhaal and smart storytelling make this a wonderful film.March 23, 2014
Source Code is a mind-bending minor classic of its type, a sort of Groundhog Day with terrorism and fewer weather reports. It's as if The Matrix hopped aboard a rapid-transit line and got derailed into the American military bureaucracy.March 23, 2014
A thoroughly original, imaginative and fast-flying tale in which the Groundhog Day aspects are secondary to a story of service, honor and dedication.May 03, 2015
I'd rather flirt with Michelle Monaghan than hunt down a mad bomber, too.January 03, 2012
Holes in logic get swept aside by the brisk pace and stimulating tale.March 23, 2014
Source Code is a sci-fi thriller that simply shouldn't work as well as it does.March 23, 2014
Source Code takes off with some intense performances and an inventive story that pulls you in and makes you work for the payoff.March 23, 2014
It's this emotional arc underlying the ticking-time-bomb plot that keeps the movie from succumbing to its flaws.July 29, 2011
A casually brainy and surprisingly thoughtful blockbuster... that is ultimately as much about saving the day as seizing it.March 23, 2014
Ultimately, Source Code makes good on its Hitchcockian opening sequence -- it may pale in comparison to the master, but it's a fun, puzzle-filled ride, with excellent pacing and a mounting uneasiness that recalls the best episodes of The Twilight Zone.
