A real head trip. Terry Gilliam proves that he is one of the most visionary directors out there. 12 Monkeys follows the story of James Cole, played by Bruce Willis, an inmate of a federal tyrannic prison in the future which is a barren underground society due to a viral break-out in 1996. Cole is chosen to go back in time to investigate the origin of the virus, and its group of cult creators, the army of the 12 monkeys. The film is a psychological thriller that requires constant attention and a definite type of viewer. Gilliam delivers a great movie with dark and interesting material.
