Source Code

"Source Code" is a film about a time loop program wherein Colter Stevens (Jake Gyllenhaal) is tasked, without his knowledge, to be part of a mission to discover the bomber (Michael Arden) responsible for a train explosion.

Directed by Duncan Jones, the story of "Source Code" begins one sunny day when Stevens wakes up and finds himself riding in a train and sitting across a woman named Christina Warren (Michelle Monaghan), who addresses him not as Stevens but as Sean Fentress.  After eight minutes, the train explodes and Stevens finds himself in a small geodesic dome.  While strapped inside the dome, he finds himself talking to U.S. Air Force captain Colleen Goodwin (Vera Farmiga) who explains to him the need to go back to the scene using the identity of Fentress, through the Source Code program, in order to locate the bomber and prevent the occurrence of  a second bomb explosion.  Goodwin tells him that he is to go back in time to relive the last eight minutes of his life over and over again until he is able to find the bomber.

Jones succeeded in creating a great American science fiction-techno-thriller film.  Aside from the great plot, Jones and his team also did a good job in choosing its cast members.

"Source Code" was released in April 2011 by Summit Entertainment.
