Instead of being on the real train, he’s inside a virtual recreation, occupying someone else’s body during the attack. With just eight minutes to identify the bomber before the explosion occurs, any failure means starting the simulation over and enduring another traumatic experience, including the blast itself. Alongside Jake Gyllenhaal, the film features talented actors such as Michelle Monaghan, Vera Farmiga, and Jeffrey Wright. You can stream Source Code on January 1st.
