5ive Days To Midnight
He Has 5 Days To Stop His Own Murder
J.T. Neumeyer, a brilliant physics professor, receives a police file from the future with explicit detail of a gruesome murder-his own. Complete with photos and a list of suspects, the file indicates that the murder will take place in five days. When real-life events begin to mirror those in the report, the skeptical J.T. realizes the file is real and time is quickly running out. He has only days to solve the mystery of his own murder...and hopefully change his destiny.

What great premise - Namor63
What a great premise. And a surprise twist at the end….We stayed up way too late, engrossed in what was going to happen next. Solid acting by everyone and Gage Golightly as Jesse was cute as a button. I found the series was well balanced with humor, suspense, plot twists, and good special effects (but not overloaded by it). Like the early days of 24 it was engrossing from the very beginning with each episode having you clamor for more.5ive Rivetting Days - wwkidlit
Don't understand how the other reviewers think. This is a great mini-series: a puzzler, a thriller, a really smart kid who is believable, and good characterization. I like the jigsaw puzzle that is all black, as this man's puzzling future seems to be, and there is a lot of excellent photography. Can't wait for Disc 2.~ 5ive DAYS OF JUST BEING AVERAGE BUT DECENT ~ 3 1/4 Stars ~ - SqueakyChair
SNAPSHOT: Lacklustre but durable. Has some of that 'lesser' Canadian movie feel. Energetic but average performances. This was the same basic premise [different storyline and venue] as Minority Report [ http://www.zip.ca/browse/title.aspx?f=clid(101736) ] and Tom Cruise did it better. But this mini-series is entertaining.
MORE THOUGHTS: This is definitely decent rainy day material, B-level stars, B-level plot, B-level budget, BUT also a definite "A"
- for effort. I could point to several movies with a Quaid brother or other in it [e.g. Independence Day ~> http://www.zip.ca/Browse/title.aspx?f=clid(100396) ] and all are among the average A or better B films! Go ahead and ZIP it, and go all out and ZIP both discs together.
Might i suggest from ZIP.ca
" Space Cowboys "
