7 Splinters in Time

This is not your typical movie and it never wants to be that. It's a bit "out there". Stylized very much like Darren Aranofsky's film "Pi" , it tries to put you in the mindset of the main protagonist Darius. It's a film that requires patience and willingness to just go with the flow. Edoardo Ballerini is superb as the lead character, Darius, who is confused yet determined. And director Judet-Weinshel makes effective use of busy camera work to keep the viewers in a desired state of curiosity and WTF confusion. This will either please -or- really annoy the viewer.

This movie is really pretty confusing for the first 50 minutes, and yet, I could not look away, but I absolutely get why others hate it. While it seemed it was just convoluted for the sake of being convoluted, it actually has a reason, but that doesn't make it any less disorienting and confusing at times. Somebody said this isn't philosophical, wow are they wrong, this movie is incredibly philosophical, there is a lot going on here with a lot of different theories on time travel and other scientific theories that have been touched on in scifi, but I do feel this movie has a unique take, despite it's clear influences. I would argue it is more a philosophical movie than a time travel movie, but I guess, watch it and decide for yourself. This has the makings of a cult classic, it really is a very unique watch and it is absolutely not for everyone.

I am not sure why some have said the acting, cinematography, or effects were not good, I did not find that to be the case. The visual aesthetic is pretty fantastic given this movie likely didn't cost more than $50,000, if that. Yes, the music can be a bit overbearing at times, that might be the one complaint I have about it, but most of it suits the movie and gives it a unique feel, the score itself is good. The color pallet is a bit washed out and yellowish, and the settings feel very old. I am just really intrigued at how they accomplished such a unique look and feel on such a low budget, the movie looks really good.

Again, especially given the budget, I really felt they did a fantastic job. I don't know what else to say really because I don't want to ruin the story, or the numerous twists and turns.

An utterly failed attempt to make something like predestination

With the story line could have made something better with no lag of Time and unnecessary flashbacks which are not helpful in any way to viewers

The movie fails to keep the viewer in front of the screen Hence I don't think everyone who start watching the movie shall come to know the story

The portrayal of time travel is the worst you can see in any sci fi movie

I watched about 35 minutes of this film and still I feel as though I gave the writer and director more time than I should have. I wish I was able to say I only gave it 20 minutes before turning it off, but I was in a good mood that day so i gave it some space to grow. Big mistake. There is no story here at all. There's no viewer engagement, there's not on e reason to keep watching form the opening scene except curiosity to wonder if it is going to turn into something good. It's the most pretentious load of old rubbish I've seen in years and I feel slightly embarrassed for everyone who was involved in making it.

For 50 minutes it didn't make any sense, the visuals were gorgeous but the total lack of comprehension was very annoying. I thought that I would have to rate this film with 1. However, some of the reviews made me wait and after the crazy 50 min all of the questions were answered. This is the rare case when waiting actually pays off. I'm glad I went on this bizarre ride.
