Twelve Monkeys

1995 film directed by the brilliant Monty Python cartoonist-turned-director Terry Gilliam and starring Bruce Willis, Madeleine Stowe, and Brad Pitt.

Willis is sent from the future where mankind has moved underground to our present day to find the cause of a plague that has devestated the Earth. Claiming he is a time traveler, psychiatrist Stowe at first tries to treat him but eventually believes him and the two embark on a quest to save the future of society. Brad Pitt is amazing as is Willis.

Gilliam is always smart, clever, interesting, and his movies will have you talking about them long after you've seen them. This one is no different, taking you back and forth in time and playing with your mind along the way. Great acting and thought-provoking plotline will keep you intrigued in this hallucinogenic saga.
