... View MoreInteresting premise. It could have been a better movie if it weren't written by a 12 year old. I stopped watching and wrote this review when an adult character said 'para-thingy' and a supposedly intelligent 'scientist' explained the 'para-thingy' as fate. At least pretend to make an effort to be sci-fi, or don't write like a middle school cheerleader failing basic math. The scientist, shouts at a supposedly tough guy who says para-thingy, 'this stuff is hard!' When explaining a paradox. Minimal effort, zero thought and no character development.
... View MoreRight from the start I knew this film wouldn't be great. Clues were the truckloads of unnecessary f-words, and the fact that the "scientists" were nothing of the sort. They were all supposed to be young and brilliant MIT students but they looked and behaved more like the thugs you'd expect to encounter in a back alley at 3 in the morning. Every one of them had a despicable personality, so I didn't particularly care what happened to them. I guessed who was behind the gas mask (why a gas mask? There was no gas) about five minutes in. And the tropes would have been right at home in an I-Know-What-You- Did-Last-Summer-type movie. The killer looking as mechanical as possible, slashing away without mercy or logic. The girl character getting hot and lowering the top half of her coveralls so that we can all get a good look at her boobs in her white tank top, though the rest of the characters (all male), are perfectly comfortable keeping their tops on. The characters, despite their supposed brilliance, constantly splitting up and turning their backs to doorways, and never thinking, hey maybe the killer is a double of one of us from another time period, which was obvious to me from the get go.And then, the female character confused me, because she looked over 40 years old, but I got the impression that the guy who was supposed to be her boyfriend was about 28. And her eyes had these giant bags underneath and she constantly looked like she was squinting, which I found irritating. That last bit is superficial, but it really annoyed me.In short, the movie was more teenage-slasher than time-travel paradox.
... View MoreI love sci fi.Anything with a puzzle or a twist turns my crank. Unfortunately, this disgustingly directed, embarrassingly acted film made me want to kill myself before the obvious actors in the film wanted to do so themselves. The lead actor in this film needs to retire tomorrow. The plot line of this film is great and whoever wrote the story needs some ups as well because even with this horrendous bunch of idiots I kept watching because the story was leading somewhere. It ultimately turned into a piece that could've been amazing with the right cast.Great story, interesting lead up to a pretty great twist at the end. All of the main actors in this movie were embarrassingly bad though and I'm still mad about how bad they were. If they remake this film with a bunch of people that can act it could probably do well.Please Hollywood never let any of these people act again.
