Product Description
ATF agent Doug Carlin (Washington) investigates an explosion on a New Orleans ferry and the murder of a young woman (Patton), which seems to be connected. Granted access to a new, top-secret device, he can observe events four days in the past. Carlin then tries to prevent the murder and avert a major terrorist attack.

In his most effective thriller since Enemy of the State, Tony Scott makes time travel seem plausible. It helps that his New Orleans hero, ATF agent Doug Carlin (Denzel Washington in his third go-round with the director), spends more time in the present than the past. In order to catch a terrorist, FBI Agent Pryzwarra (Val Kilmer) invites Carlin to join forces. They have the technology to see the past. He has the expertise to interpret the data. Unfortunately, the bomb has already gone off and hundreds of ferry passengers have died. Then there's the body of a beautiful woman, Claire Kuchever (Paula Patton, Idlewild), that turns up in the vicinity of the blast. Evidence indicates she was killed beforehand. Since the FBI enables him to observe Claire prior to her murder, Carlin gets to know what she was like and finds himself falling in love. He becomes convinced that the only way to solve the case--and prove her innocence--is to travel to the past. But as Pryzwarra's colleague, Denny (Adam Goldberg), argues, "You cannot go back in time. It's physically impossible." Or so he says. Deja Vu is constructed around a clever script and executed by a top-notch cast, notably Washington, Patton, and an eerie Jim Caviezel (miles away from Passion of the Christ). In shedding the excesses of recent years--the sadism of Man on Fire and weirdness of Tarantino favorite Domino--Scott re-affirms his rep as one of the action movie's finest practitioners. --Kathleen C. Fennessy

Deja Vu - Plenty of suspense and surprises June 8, 2009

If you love movies that keep you guessing you will like Deja Vu. An interesting, suspenseful storyline mixed with a sci-fi twist. Denzel Washington is good as always, but James Caviezel really shines as the villain in this story.
 A Bit Too Far Fetched March 10, 2009

When a New Orleans ferryboat is destroyed by a terrorist bomb, killing most of the people onboard, ATF agent Doug Carling (played by Denzil Washington), is sent to investigate. The mystery deepens when a young womans body is found, near the scene of the crime, yet the evidence indicates she died a few hours before the explosion.
I thought this movie started off quite interesting, as Carling gets his teeth into the investigation, but once the technological parts of film 'kicked in', it got a bit too far fetched for my liking. As the movie progressed it got more and more ridiculous, and I feel the 'technology' bits would have worked better, if it had of been set a few years into the future. Not even Denzil can save this one!

Denzel Washington! What can I say. Is there any movie He cannot do justice to his character? NO
It's a movie you need to fully concentrate on.A good addition to any library.
 Wish I could go back in time and rent some other movie February 10, 2009

Now, I have never given one star to a movie before. But this movie is _that_ bad. It's so absurd that it insults the viewer's intelligence. Denzel is decent, but then the movie started getting so ridiculous at one point that I gave up.. right when Denzel went back in time by four days and started chasing the bomber... go figure! Oh, it also seemed like he was falling in love with the girl who is already dead (or is she?) by watching videos of her taking shower and changing clothes. I guess by the end of the movie, she will get back to life again and fall in love with Denzel.
This movie is plain stupid. I'm surprised it has a 4 stars rating on amazon. If you want to watch a good time-travel, sci-fi movie, I recommend 12 Monkeys (Special Edition)
