Frequency

What happens when you twist a top notch thriller with a mild sci-fantacy with a family drama? I'm not sure either, but in 2000, Director Gregory Hobilt (Fallen and Untraceable currently in theaters) spins a masterful tale of time warped just-in-time heroism. Before Denzel Washington left himself messages in "Deja Vu", Dennis Quaid (The Right Stuff, The Big Easy, and Suspect plus a very good Bonny Raitt video) and Jim Caviezel (Pay It Forward, Unknown, and Deja Vu with Denzel) did it in "Frequency".

Fireman Father Quaid leaves clues as to his murderer, and then finds a way to communicate them to his grown up son Caviezel, decades later. It is a very clever concept, if not a new one. But, excellent acting and editing make this a very fun, exciting, movie to watch. But I fear I may have already given too much away.

Timing is everything, and this movie gets it right.

Watch it with someone who likes solving a good mystery.
