A Disappointing Continuation

Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

As I finished watching it, I felt disappointed: plot holes, not so strong plot, crazy shooting (ok, it's meant to be "young" footage-style, but... exxagerated!) ...One day later, it feels a bit better. I am still a bit disappointed by the shooting but... ok. On the other hand, the plot now seems to make some sense, and even a complain I read somewhere about "they get a time machine and can't think of a better use"... becomes less critical. I mean, they're 17 or so: me too, if I had found such a machine back in the days, would've probably done the same choices!So, a somewhat nice idea and somewhat new. Acceptable.

This reminded me of Aston Kutcher's Butterfly Effect, which I think was a better version of the time-travel type movie. It's just amazing how everything is connected to everything and how Einstein could possibly come up with the Chaos Theory. It makes you wonder if something like this could ever become a reality in the future. Casting in the movie was good.. good screenplay and direction overall. A good movie for science buffs.

The idea of the movie was interesting and a little bit to simple, I spend half of the movie trying to understand what did they f*ck up in time, the effects were pretty good and the movie itself was OK but I don't really get why did the writers of this movie didn't go for something more original, those guys built and what they with it they go to a festival to get drunk and f*ck ed up.I give this movie a seven.

Right off the bat this movie has two strikes against it. First, I can't stand found footage films. This technique is used to make things seem more "real," but it just makes it hard to watch. If I'm watching a move with any kind of sci-fi, paranormal activity or supernatural elements, I suspend reality and enjoy the movie. If a movie says that a being torments and kills people by getting at them through their dreams, I accept those terms for the movie and that's the end of it. If I don't suspend reality, the concept is outrageous whether the film is from a shaky camera or neatly edited by a post-production staff. The second element I can't stand is time travel whether it's in a comical movie like "Hot Tub Time Machine" (2010), a serious plot such as "The Terminator" (1984), or even in the form of blatant science like the Stephen Hawkins documentary "A Brief History of Time" (1991). Time travel means infinitesimal points exist of which traveling to can alter the entire path in that existence therefore there are infinite realities, and an infinite copy of every atom in the universe (therefore every person). If that statement confused you…GOOD! In this movie, an intelligent high school senior finds a time machine created by his father who passed away when he was 7. He and his friends get it to work, with the limitation that they can only travel to the recent past. They begin to see how their actions largely affect the present (now which present?) like in "The Butterfly Effect" (2004). The concept that small changes can radiate into larger, even catastrophic changes IS an interesting philosophical concept, and was the saving factor of this movie in the movie, memories are altered as they travel back. What determines which time travel's alterations stick? The most recent? But what is recent when you're traveling through time? And why with the time travel, memories get altered, but one thing that never changes is the video being recorded?
