Time Jumpers

What started out as a potentially good movie was quickly ruined by the unrelated stories that were just horrible and really pointless to the discovery of the little time altering ball found by the boy in the beginning. I advise you not to waste an hour of your life watching this rubbish because it is unlikely to see that hour of your life again. Like another reviewer said, there are waaaay better time jumping movies out there

For a low budget student film, it's not half bad. OK, maybe a little more than half bad. If would be best to waste an hour and 15 minutes of your life on something else.

Unlike most of the people, I didn't find this anthology to be cringe-worthy. But, it was completely purposeless. Rather than reviewing this as a whole, I would like to say things about the four disjointed short films in it.

First one. It was the only one which justified the title of the anthology. There were some tropes that we have seen before and they have been played out in a better way and in a better context. It told the story very well, except that the ending was vague. I would've wanted to see more of it. Score : 6.9/10.

Second one. The usual looping of time and stuff. It was nothing exciting and was really predictable. We have seen the thing being played out very well in "Predestination" and many other movies. Here, it's just terrible acting and expositionary dialogues. It didn't make any sense. It felt like a small scene from a movie. Within itself, it had no story. Score : 0/10.

Third one. It was the best one among the four. The way things unfold are told visually rather than through expositions. This would've served as a good short film, if it wasn't a part of this anthology. The telling of the story is very good. The performances are okay. Due to its runtime, it doesn't explain the backstory properly. That's the only major drawback. It just wasn't so fitting to call it "Time Jumping" or so. Score : 8/10. Grade : A-.

Fourth one. This was one of the weirdest things I have ever seen. Mere mentioning of a time leap doesn't justify a "time jump", it will just be lame. It wasn't a horror or a sci-fi stuff. Just some lame video clip. It was shortest and stupidest among all. Score : 0/10 (cringe).

This anthology gave me two watchable short films and two which don't make any sense. I still think that it's a terrible idea to put all these short films in a collection which would make every one of them feel as inferior shorts.

Rating for the entire anthology : 4.1/10.

Less a movie, more an anthology of 4 "stories" (loosely based around a "time" theme) that wants to be Twighlight Zone or Tales Of The Unexpected when it grows up. And it succeeds - as long as you ignore the shocking writing, awful acting and Ham-fisted directing. Reset: What was that all about? Am-Dram where they mixed up the pages and ended up with a story that made no sense at all. Momentum: A stab at a "time-travel-cycle" story that lacks conviction and mistakes an idea for a plot. Vienna Waits For You: The best is a bad bunch. Tenant-trapping apartment tale that deserves better company. The Graveyard Shift: That unfinished story that your 11yr old self wrote in an exercise book and quickly forgot. Brought to the screen. Still unfinished.

This not a movie. It is a collection of unrelated stories, none of which have a beginning or an endor make any sense. Combined with the terrible acting I consider it a complete and utter waste of time.
