March 3, 2012A thrilling, clever and action-packed thrill-ride. It`s full of great suspensful moments, great action sequences and a wicked twist ending that makes yours eyes pop wide-open. It`s cool, fun and very enteratining.

March 3, 2012I really like the idea behind it however it just turned into a mash up of action and bad acting. Cage looks like he mock acting in an attempt to be funny, Moore looks like she's trying too hard to be someone she's really not suited to play and Biel just can't act at all. Such a s... read more

February 9, 2012OK where to begin, guess what, I didn't like this either, another Phillip K Dick adaptation and another movie about being able to see the future or a couple minutes ahead anyway. Its a nice idea, hardly original these days, back then sure, now no. 'Minority Report' was a better f... read more

September 17, 2011NEXT had lots of neat and visually stunning effects, but they were mostly used to tell us, "Look what we can do with our CGI. Ain't it cool?" Yeah, it's "cool" all right, if you really want to call it that, but Nicolas Cage, your acting skills were terrible, and there was rarel... read more

May 29, 2011I'm torn about movies like this. Sure, I enjoyed the action moves - like when Cris Johnson (Nicolas Cage) does his Neo-like moves.
But I need movies to be consistent. If Cris can see two minutes in advance, base the story on that. Somehow, by the end of the movie, Cris is s... read more -
March 10, 2011Don't know why people didn't liked this movie but I sure did. I know the idea was a bit tiring and old. I myself have watched more than three/four of the same plot. I guess it really depends on how they represent it. The ending totally got me.

January 3, 2011Nick Cage...WHAT A JOKE. Ohhhh he can control time you say and change the outcomes of the future, well that sounds appealing...that was a large regret. Last time i watch you nick and expect anything good, I mean BANGKOK DANGEROUS what were you thinking!?!?

August 18, 2010i liked this flick because it was fun to watch and interesting all the way through. there were some problems. the acting except for jessica biel was bad all the way through. moore is usually good and she was awful in this movie and nic cage is either incredible or caveman in m... read more

July 18, 2010Such a fun movie. Even though it's sort've cliched at times, that had no effect on the entertainment level. Nicolas Cage feels like his nineties attitude where he did ridiculous action movies and had so much fun doing it. His performance is perfect in this, I couldn't see anyone ... read more

Next features Nicolas Cage as a clairvoyant who can see events before they occur. If anyone on the production team had similar abilities, they could have foreseen that the film was a folly in the making.

A schlocky mix of bad special effects and worse Cage hairdos. Full Review

Claudia Puig, USA Today
Once you know the rules, it's hardly worth playing. Especially when you find out you've been tricked. Full Review

Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle
It [explores] different facets of its premise and transforms itself into a fairly competent suspense thriller. Full Review

Steven Rea, Philadelphia Inquirer
Cage is cool, quiet and a touch melancholy as Johnson -- carrying the burden of his gift with a brooding brow and a ready punch line. Full Review

Stephanie Zacharek, Salon.com
It doesn't have the momentum, the quick-wittedness, to keep us wondering what's going to happen next. Full Review

Manohla Dargis, New York Times
It's too bad that Mr. Cage couldn't tap into those powers to save himself from another bad choice in roles. Full Review

Lou Lumenick, New York Post
Next, which makes National Treasure look like a model of narrative logic, is almost beyond criticism. Full Review
