Time Lapse

Clayton Pierce is an agent working under deep cover. Although he is a top agent, he is questioning his loyalty after twenty years of service. His devotion has already cost him his wife, family and personal life. During a de-briefing from his last assignment, he is unknowingly administered the drug Oblivion, which destroys brain cells causing permanent memory loss. Within a few days of injection, the drug's effects become irreversible. Clayton will not only lose his memory, he will lose his identity as well. He realizes he can no longer rely on anyone at the agency to help him, not even his boss, Agent LaNova. With nowhere left to go, he appeals to his ex-wife, Kate, for help. Clayton and Kate must locate the antidote before it's too late.

Before you choose

What kind of time-travel story is this?

No established temporal element in the identified film.

Kept to explain the boundary of the genre; it is not included in the core time-travel catalog. The mechanism is classified as Not applicable.

Why the archive makes this assessment (spoilers)

The spy's drug-induced memory loss is not an established temporal phenomenon.

The 2001 spy thriller concerns a drug erasing memory, not time travel; it is distinct from the 2014 future-photograph film.

How Titan works

Titan combines the archive’s quality, audience and legacy base with the significance of time travel. It is an index, not a score out of 100, and is distinct from the FMV archive’s scoring model.

Titan = base × [0.20 + 0.80 × (time-travel score ÷ 10)²]

This film: 22.39 base × 20.0% weighting.

Partial inputs flag incomplete source metadata. Provisional weighting flags a time-travel assessment that remains uncertain; it receives no additional confidence penalty.
