2006 film starring Denzel Washington, Val Kilmer, Jim Caviezel, and Paula Patton.Following a deadly ferry explosion on Fat Tuesday that kills hundreds of US Navy personnel and their families, New Orleans ATF agent Doug Carlin (Washington) finds the body of a woman near the wreckage who appears to have been tortured and killed before the ferry explosion.While pursuing the evidence, he is recruited by FBI agent Pryzwarra (Kilmer) who brings him to a small team that has a machine that can view anything in New Orleans four days and six hours in the past, which they hope will help them find the killer. When Doug eventually figures out how the system works, cue the Time Travel Tropes.

Doppelgänger Replacement Love Interest
 Déjà Vu (2006) / int_1d311757
comment
Doppelgänger Replacement Love Interest: Not really, but the general feeling is the same. Future!Doug and Claire gets to spend some meaningful hours together to bond before the former gets killed while trying to remove the bomb from the ship. Since this resets the timeline, however, Claire doesn't have to grieve for so long, because another Doug (Past!Doug) arrives at the scene, this time to a timeline where she survives.

Cruel and Unusual Death
 Déjà Vu (2006) / int_1e584efa
comment
Cruel and Unusual Death: In the Bad Present, Claire gets her fingers chopped off, shot, burned alive, then thrown to the river, in that order. Also Larry. He gets shot first, which doesn't kill him right away, but then Carroll offs him, burns him, then throws his body to the bayou, where he's eaten by an alligator. Carroll gets the lower half of his body crushed with a car (ironically, Claire's jeep) and Doug shoots him in the head while he's distracted from the pain.

comment
Chekhov's Gun: Literally. In the chronoscope, Claire is seen hiding a revolver below her pillow when she feels that someone is stalking her (actually the sounds of Pryzwarra's team talking from behind the screen). It comes back again when she threatens Future!Doug to lie down while she confirms his identity.

Ironic Echo: Does it count if Doug is repeating something back to Carroll that Carroll's past self technically hasn't said yet? Also, when Doug first sees Claire in the Coroner's office he calls out "Claire" to her. Later When Claire first meets Doug!2, after the explosion that killed Doug!1, she calls out "Doug" exactly the same way Doug had in the Coroner's office

It Always Rains at Funerals: It rains lightly during Claire's funeral. Justified as it is set in New Orleans, and there were concerns that the shoot in which the crew simulated rain would be interrupted by a real rain. The seasonal monsoon serendipitously delayed until immediately after shooting.

comment
Stable Time Loop: Doug's mission is to avoid one since he wants to save Claire and the ferry victims. If Doug failed in the movie there is a good chance that this would have started a multi-timeline loop where Doug is creating clues in one timeline that he subsequently eliminates the next time he goes back in time starting the entire process over.

However, Claire and the ferry passengers are saved, and Claire gets to meet Past!Doug. Though he doesn't recognize her, "she'd try".

Dead Man's Trigger Finger: Variant. Having the lower half of his body crushed when Claire rams him with the car, Carroll keeps pulling the triggers of his dual H&K MP-5Ks in his agony. When Doug then shoots him in the head, he finally lets go of the triggers.

Time Is Dangerous: Sending a living person through the chronoscope disrupts electrical activity inside of their bodies, sending them into convulsions and disrupting their heart. To counter this, Doug transports himself into an ER with the words "REVIVE ME" written on his chest.

Plot Hole
 Déjà Vu (2006) / int_6331ba26
comment
Plot Hole: The article on the Other Wiki includes a diagram◊ showing that four runs of the timeline are needed in order to explain the events in the movie. In Timeline 3 (the timeline before the events of the movie) Claire is burned alive and has her fingers cut off by Carroll at her apartment. Yet there is no evidence of this present in her apartment during the police investigation. Also, how would Carroll have had enough time to do all that and beat Doug to the ferry in time to set off the explosion?

The Big Easy: Played With, the emphasis is on a ferry rather than on the typical street events of Mardi Gras.

Historical Rap Sheet: The last time that the Time Machine was used to try to send something into the past instead of just viewing it, the power draw accidentally caused the Northeast blackout of 2003.

Fold the Page, Fold the Space: Happens when Doug demands a Layman's Terms explanation for how the scientists established a live feed connection to a timeline four days in the past. Denny holds up a blank sheet of paper and then folds it to explain how they folded space and time to create a wormhole into the past.

Shout-Out: The cover story for the Time Machine and its usage for (incredibly accurate) reconstruction of an area involves the (supposed) deployment of a satellite network called "The Seven Dwarfs". The terrorist's name is Carroll.

Everybody Lives: This is Doug's main goal in the film, other than screwing destiny. As he puts it: "Every time I investigate a crime, it's always after it already has been committed. I want to solve a crime before it is committed". He still fails because, due to an unfortunate event happening in the original timeline, Carroll will always kill Larry, and some police and Mariners will always be killed as collateral damage. But he is able to save the ferry's 500+ passengers, as well as Claire.

Action Girl: Claire, as shown in the timeline where she survives. Boldly threatening an extremely experienced crime investigator into lying down or evading security to the cargo area? Not too shabby for a bystander.

 Déjà Vu (2006) / int_ed59847b
comment
Computer Equals Monitor: The main monitor of the chronoscope not only shows the feed from the wormhole, it's apparently a direct line to it. Doug shines a laser pointer at it to confirm his theory that there's more to the device than the team was initially willing to tell him. Averted later when he arbitrarily smashes a secondary monitor to prove a point; sure, they're annoyed, but it's not that big a deal.

Right-Wing Militia Fanatic: Carroll is a one-man militia, a guy who aced all of the tests needed to enter the military... except for the psych, which came back as "too damn crazy". He calls himself a patriot who is doing what he needs is necessary to raise awareness of how unprepared America is in terms of terrorism... and thus he deems 500 deaths, including many children, as both a "necessary sacrifice" and "it was fate".

Well-Intentioned Extremist: Carroll is your typical post-9/11 paranoid that believes that the United States is unprepared against terrorist attacks (and too blind to see this), and decides that performing a terrorist attack (with the biggest casualties possible, a "sacrifice" in the multiple digits) will drive the government to assume a more hard-core stance on preventing future attacks.
