Flashes

Very nice feature. I like the multiple roles played by the lead and supporting characters. It was very creative, it takes talent and a lot of crafting for one person to play so many contradicting roles. I liked many of the director's choices"won't go into details to avoid spoiling". THE ENDING wAS A SURPRISE

Another movie about alternate realities and timelines. This one is hit and miss. But it kept my attention. I thought it was pretty funny that Tom Sizemore is listed as a main star, yet he's hardly in the movie at all. However, the movie isn't that bad. There was a couple scenes of women in bathing suits. Almost went PG13 but not quite. I hate that. The rating says 18+ come on and put some 18+ stuff in it. I would have given a 6 or 7 but can only give a 5/10.

Oh the ending, I liked how it ended.

So, I spent half of the movie jabbing the FF 10 seconds button and the other half in a comfortable mid afternoon nap. It seems like the back of my eye lids had no trouble keeping pace with this "science fiction thriller".

For those looking for a good movie to work out your right thumb or those who just like to sleep, I'd give it a solid rating.

The story is somewhat unusual, but it leaves more questions than it answers and therefore is often confusing. Some of that is the nature of bouncing around to three different realities, but actually the film did pretty well at making it clear which one you were in. I didn't understand the sequence leading up to the climax.

John Rotit was not the most likable character even in his best reality. In the second reality, Johnny was a selfish loser and in the third an almost robotic killer. I never understood why he was killing the people he did- what significance the people on the list were, but maybe I missed it.

John #1 has an unbelievably devoted wife. For one thing, she is drop-dead gorgeous, but in her character she is very forgiving. She confronts him about being gone so much, but then accepts his profession of fidelity. I have to admit, she was part of what kept me going to the end hoping that she would bring him around.

I thought the acting wasn't bad, but it also wasn't great. The psychiatrist didn't come off as authentic to me. I don't know what Christopher Judd was trying to be in reality #2. In reality #1 he seemed more like a middle-school teacher than a professor. Tom Sizemore looked like a lost puppy in #1 and #2 and a robot in #3. Maybe that was the intent.

I felt like this was a college class project where they promised parts to pretty girls and people who may have helped invest in the movie. It moves quite slowly. Amazing how you can not care about the same character in 3 different realities! Christopher Judge was okay, but Tom Sizemore was in one scene and had about 5 lines. Cha Ching for the paycheck. The girl playing his wife did her lines like she was reading a book. The main character looks like he gets plumper in his lips. It is distracting. The acting was so extremely wooden by pretty much all. In the end, the thing that kills it is this movie is just plain boring. I doubt if good actors could of helped it out.
