Paycheck
Brilliant computer engineer Michael Jennings routinely has his short term memory erased, so he can't divulge any information about the top secret projects he works on throughout the year. But he gets a paycheck, of 4 billion dollars. However, what he gets is only a small bag of worthless clues and trinkets. Now he has to collect his memories to prove that he's innocent.

Paycheck takes two hours to watch and two minutes to forget.

Playful but inconsequential...the interpretation of Dick's intriguing concept is a street which mostly just dead-ends into noisy silliness. [Blu-ray]

"Paycheck" is a no-brainer action movie with just enough sci-fi thematic input to keep it spicy.

This movie just sags, even in the action scenes.

If a movie is going to flout, or at least bend, the laws of the universe, it at least ought to obey its own internal rules.

Woo's stylish touches fall flat in this forgettable project

[Woo] still has pretty much of a tin ear for American performances, so he lets Affleck doze through the starring role. The film feels as if it has no center.
December 26, 2003
Without ever quite becoming boring, Paycheck seems to narrow into a routine pattern, and a plot that at first had nuance and the hint of a broader meaning degenerates into chases and standard action.

It's not necessarily high brow sci-fi, but it is very accessible to the mainstream eye.

You may not buy everything about this movie, but you'll likely leave it with a smile.
December 25, 2003
Though the premise is provocative enough, the execution feels like a host of other violent action-drenched movies.

There's a sense of treading water about this movie.
