NICOLAS Cage and Julianne Moore peer into the future in this sci-fi thriller.

Cage is Cris Johnson, a Las Vegas showroom magician who has a secret gift - he can see a few minutes into the future.

Sick of the examinations he underwent as a child and the interest of the government and medical establishment in his power, he lies low under an assumed name in Vegas, performing cheap tricks and living off small-time gambling "winnings".

But when a terrorist group threatens to detonate a nuclear device in Los Angeles, government agent Callie Ferris (Moore) must use all her wiles to capture Cris and convince him to help her stop the cataclysm.
