There have been many movies about time travel, but "Freejack" is quite unique. It portrays race-car driver Alex Furlong (Emilio Estevez) getting unwillingly transported to 21st century New York, where some people want to give his young body to aging Ian McCandless (Anthony Hopkins). Estevez, Hopkins, and Rene Russo all do fair jobs with their roles, but it's really impressive seeing Mick Jagger as the villain's henchman Victor Vacendak. I mean, every once in a while, a rock star shows up in a movie, but Jagger is really neat here. Gravitating between menacing and jolly, this must have been a role through which he got some satisfaction.
So, this movie does have an interesting plot, but it's mostly worth seeing just to see Mick Jagger as a bad guy. Really cool. Amanda Plummer, John Shea and Esai Morales also appear.
