Good concept, poorly executed.

It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

Ok, so we all get time dilation effects at an event horizon. But reincarnation? There were at least three different effects at different event horizons. As they had entered at different times it should not have been possible for the students to catch up with the prof. Batteries seem to last for ever! The ancient battle, should have been over if thousands of years had passed. What happened to the dog?

I was pleasantly surprised by this one. I'm a sucker for all things time travel but my initial notion was it would be another low budget shaky handheld cam thing couldn't have been further from the mark. While its not chock full of cool FX the one that are used are convincing enough. The HG Wells flavor kicks in at about the halfway mark and steadily builds until abandoned at the last moment for a less apocalyptic ending. So when you are standing in front of Red Box scratching your head trying to pick something out this would be a solid option.

Thats it. I found my self barely able to finish. I finished simply because im a fan of this type of stuff. the acting was ok for the most part but most the lines were absolute garbage and the way they took their characters through the plot. bleh. they tried though to the best of their abilities. almost couldn't handle it. Id watch it if you have alot of time to kill and this is your type of thing. but dont expect much lol.

Time Trap has a bit of a glossy Hallmark film or Disney teen drama feel to it at times. It also has a few dark moments and the tone feels a bit uneven at times because of it. I wish they would have stuck with the darker and grittier style throughout. If that were the case, I would have given the film a higher rating. Nevertheless, I found Time Trap to be a pretty good lower budget sci-fi film.
