Review the Paycheck --- looks good!

I just finished watching the movie "Paycheck" on TV and was simply blown away by the plot. Starring Ben Affleck and Uma Thurman, the story is about a guy who creates a machine which shows the future. But then as he says - "Once you show people the future, they don't have a future" and puts it perfectly towards the end with "Having seen the future, people will make it happen"......

He decides to destroy the machine for the greater good, but the chaps he works for get wind of this and try to stop him and save the machine. The rest of the plot is about how they try to kill him, and in the words of his boss, "how he transformed himself from an ordinary engineer to an escape artiste"..... So did he succeed in the end ? Go watch the movie!

Of course, Ben did use the machine to foresee some of the attacks on him, and find ways to escape. To help his future self, he sends himself an envelope containing ordinary everyday items. Later, the way he uses them to figure out the next step he should take in his quest is simply awesome. Each time, he uses up one item from the envelope, until all he has left with him is a wrist-watch. The story is beautifully woven together with good acting all round. An absolute must-watch.
