"Found In Time" is a sci-fi film that takes place in an "altered" present-day New York City. Psychics with real powers sell their "wares" on the street, marginalized by society and closely monitored by the dreaded Psychological Police Corp (the Psychcops). They lead dark, lonely lives, plagued as much as helped by their gifts.

Our hero, Chris, is a collector. He compulsively picks up the things most of us throw away or forget Â– pens, coins, lighters, keys, stones, and other detritus Â– and sells them to passersby. But every object he picks today will have meaning for someone in the future.

His gift comes with a big downside, however Â– he experiences his life out of order, slipping between the past, present and future. Chris wants to live a "regular" existence, and copes with his slippage as best he can.

But when he commits murder in the future, he realizes he has to alter his present in order to prevent it. But how can he do this when heÂ’s not even sure of what time it is?

Failed utterly to entertain me. Bizarre AND failed to entertain ME.

Either I am too stupid to "get it" or the one's who claim to get it are afraid of appearing too stupid, like an "Emperor's New Clothes" kind of thing? i won't insist on the latter. I mean it was easy enough to see the artistic attempt, a kind of Picasso thing or something using film making rather than paint. Employing many devices such as masks on Psychologists, and serving up cups of coffee supposedly individually programmed to a person's current needs in something ....

Look, I am not Mensa or anything, not educated in critiquing of art etc. But at the same time I am also not one that can stand being force fed things employing idiot laugh tracks or gross cliché otherwise found so enjoyable to the lower end of the scale...ya know? Somewhere in the middle is what I am saying, for whatever that is worth, considering my opinion.

Bottom line, for me personally? it was a big fat FAIL. I don't think anyone could honestly, straight faced not immediately recognize that much of the acting lacked severely ....amateur hour kind of of thing one might see in after hours soft cable porn or high school plays etc. Don't get me wrong, I mean I really do think I sort of see what the screenplay and direction attempted to do, but it just fails IMHO...as they say "Your Mileage may Vary" (YMMV?) I am thinking that someone more skilled MIGHT be able to pull something off like this attempt, but these folks just failed in my case. (did I overuse the word "fail"? I don't think so...lol)
