Redundant and unnecessary.

One of my all time favorites.

Nice effects though.

It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.

A fine film 'Twelve Monkeys' conveys a confusing story of rebellion, activism and time travel as well as cause and effect. The content seems bulky and is indeed however it's communicated well through the narrative and story which despite seeming fractured on a surface level is quite simple to follow, littered with surprisingly great performances from what's now recognised as a fantastic cast and brilliantly shot to convey multiple atmospheres there's many a reason why this film is highly regarded however for those who are more aware of the world of film and other releases within and outside of this genre a potential issue arises. The climax is triggered by a viewing of 'Vertigo' (Hitchcock,1958) rather fitting giving the relevance it has in relation to character identity and to some extent conspiracy which can sort of be applied to this film itself yet all seems a bit jarring having now seen both films. It's well documented that 'La Jetée' (Marker, 1962) was the main inspiration for 'Twelve Monkeys' but it feels a little cheap given that it's essentially beat for beat tha same film only the 'remake' (and I use that term very lightly) is slightly padded out by a few subplots which are mostly irrelevant to the core story of the film, nevertheless it's not all bad and the well shot '95 release is worth one watch at least.

This movie never getting old even 100 times you watch.

True masterpiece and very enjoyable. The idea of the virus destroying everything and having to send a man back in the past is just brilliant. Only thing that bugged me is that we didn't have much info about the backstories of the twelve monkeys or the virus.

I am convinced that most people here who rated this movie as "masterpiece" or excellent did it so because it was directed by a member of the Monty Python, which they, like me, love. Let me tell you: this movie is not that good! In fact it is bad.It is overlong, full of overacting, the sets look amateurish, the story is very confusing and the end is completely unsatisfying.Unfortunately, I felt like I wasted two hours of my life.
