It's About Time! Movies Based on the Clock

Ah, time. We all have either too much, too little or would like to alter it all together. However in Hollywood, it's the focal point of many hit movies in which the characters do with it as they please or suffer dire consequences if they dare to tempt fate. Either way, it makes for a great viewing experience. Let's take some time to look at some films over the years that have time written all over it! Punctuality is optional.
In the upcoming film In Time, Justin Timberlake stars in this thriller where people don't age once they hit 25. To make matters worse, the rich can prolong their lives while the poor run out of time. A mysterious man grants Timberlake 100 years worth of time which lands him in hot water. The movie opens in theaters October 28, 2011.
