Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

This is a fun movie. It explores time travel in an interesting way, making one big consistent whole. While movies like Primer have more convoluted plots, this one is simpler. It explores the events within timeline in a way that menages to reinterpret them and is an interesting conceptual work. Though somewhat predictable, it still menages to be fun and thought provoking. There are not really any plot holes except that main character acts somewhat in fear of not ruining what he knows happens, at least at first, which is somewhat dubious, but the consistency is preserved. What would happen if he tried to subvert it is not explored, but still, a solid work and an unexplored angle. Less ambitious than Predestination, and at a lower budget, but delivers similar experience if in more low key way, which is sometimes sweeter, in a way small but clever films can be.

As I said on the title, this movie can be placed under the category of mystery but definitely not of horror or thriller. I have to admit that it has a good story; especially when the year it has been filmed is considered. I guess the main reason I didn't like it that much is that recently we saw really good movies or series (i.e. Dark) which discuss "the time" issue in terms of whether it is linear or cyclical, we can make any change on it or not etc. Briefly, I can say that if you are interested in a movie telling a time issue and doing so without the perspective of Hollywood, give a chance to Timecrimes.

This clever sci-fi thriller involves a man who is attacked in the woods and goes back in time. The rest of the movie is a series of plot twists.You can look at this movie in two ways. It's a sci-fi flick that plays with time conundrums, or it's an existentialist drama about the way we are trapped in our lives.As a sci-fi film, Timecrimes holds together pretty well. There's a very specific time line and everything fits together nicely. Unfortunately, the movie pretty much relies entirely on the flaws of its protagonist Hector. Hector seems like an everyman, but ultimately he's an immoral idiot. He is fantastically stubborn and makes consistently terrible decisions, often not even trying the most obvious option. Timecrimes follows the popular time-travel trope of inevitability, yet I didn't feel anything in the story was really inevitable; it was just Hector being stupid.The movie works better as existentialist drama, highlighting the ways we play out roles and conspire in our own destruction. This adds some depth to the movie. But without a sense of what kind of person Hector must be to act as he does, I was left feeling dissatisfied.Also, that last couple of minutes is just weird and artificial.

Saw this movie today only The only thing that remain mystery was what was happening with others characters. Were they also getting replicated?Actually to understand this movie make the main character as reference. He first get replicated, then he misunderstood hector 1 as another person. He then repeats the entire series which hector 3 did to hector 2(reference​ or once hector1 from where movie started). Hector 3 which later became hector 4 never came in seen of movie. Meanwhile hector 2(the main reference) after becoming hector 3 tries to stop now hector 2 to do same stuff which he did. But later he realised that he can't stop all this. The only thing he can do is let him and her wife flee away. This reveals the unknown hector4 fate. The infinite loop has started where first 3 hectors will have place in the story and all other are out of scene
