....give me a break. Endings like that should be banned. Just bloody lazy.

The best of the movie was MJF's appearance, and his Great Scott comment.. the worst? Everything else.

I wonder about the intended audience: the atmosphere being very childish, adults get bored chop-chop, probably right from the start; the dialogues being hardly refined and sometimes ridiculous, the children are therefore proscribed. Moreover, the script is messy and repetitious. Finally, the ending (if you ever get there!) rhymes with bitterness. I nevertheless appreciated the reference to Ritorno al futuro (1985), with the furtive presence of Michael J. Fox as a science teacher.

This movie is fun. If you enjoy Time Travel and fresh new faces give it a try. Don't listen to the "spike lee propaganda " posts or negative comments. It was awesome and fun seeing fun intelligent black kids, who aren't big name actors and acted well. I liked it. A few holes but I take for what it is, an entertaining movie.

Waste of time, predictable story. Frustrating Ending. I wish I have a time machine and go back in time and tell myself not to watch this movie

The simple problem with this film is that it doesn't know what it is or who it's aimed at. It's as corny and mawkish as a Disney film but it's full of profanity, the result is a film that's too childish for adults yet not suitable for kids either.

A lot of the reviews are negative, to be honest I don't see why. This isn't something I normally would watch but I thought I'd give it a go and was pleasently surprised, I found the concept of the story good, especially when you think of how many movies are made about time travel and changing the past. But this kept me entertained, I feel like it does tackle some real day issues amongst the police and black people, which is the gritty truth of the movie and well done for doing so!

A lot of comments are angry about the ending, no spoilers but the affect they were going for was accomplished in the ending so again it made us feel that way and they intended it to, so I think good on them they succeeded.

Someone mentioned it would make a good series yes I think it could.

Overall is it a cinema release no... Is it satisfying yes

Did you run out of money? Did the editor quit? Is there a part 2?

This movie is fun and good to watch, with kids even. Perfect Alcatraz for the mind to think. It could've been better but then it won't be close to reality.

After years of using IMDb without an account, THIS is the thing that got me to create one and make a review.

The movie is slow, full of plotholes, unexciting and has no ending.

It is absolutely bad, and has a very unfitting soundtrack.

And if you need any background, while I really enjoyed Prime and enjoy the time traveling idea, I went into this movie expecting just a dumb flick to pass time, my hopes couldn't possibly be any lower, and still here I am writing this.

The first hour was really good nice urban time travel with some back and forth, but when it came to close the story they had no idea what to do and did just nothing.

Netflix somehow believes that putting untalented, bad acting, annoying kids in a movie with even a worse script, is a good thing. This is the umpteenth attempt of Netflix to do so, and it, again fails. From Vampires vs. the Bronx, to the sidekick in Project Power to the awful Rim of the World, all huge fails. My advise, if you want to see a family action movie, see Sky High.

This movie was a very engaging spin on the classic time travel caper. The tone is more "Law & Order" and not Disney or "Spy Kids" at all. If you are expecting a G-rated "everything is awesome" type film, leaves those expectations at the door.

The director tells the story from the perspective of two young New York City teens. He asks the question how would the real lives of these teens change if they just happen to be able to travel back in time. The political upheaval, crime, and police violence in NYC are a backdrop to this story.

I thought the director did a very good job of spinning a new take on the classic time travel tale aka "Back to the Future." In the beginning there is a lot of time spent showing you who the teens are and their living environment and educational experiences. This characterization other reviewers have called "slow" but I appreciated the peak into the world of the two teenagers, it let me appreciate who they are and the motivation they had to achieve time travel.

I disagree with most of the negative reviews on this film. After reading them, those reviews seem more politically motivated than an actual criticism of the movie. This is a Spike Lee produced film, so some social commentary is to be expected. The film does discuss police violence in communities of color. The negative comments and low film ratings appear to be just push back against a film presenting a different opinion on the perspective of police gun violence. Despite having a different political viewpoint, I did not find the movie to be preachy or self-righteous, but just presented the situation in a matter of fact manner. Politics aside, this was a good movie.

I do think it would make a great TV series. And, I only gave it a lower rating because I felt the ending was too rushed and was not a true resolution.

If had I time machine I'd go back and not watch this. Obvious joke, but not all time travel movies are worth you time. This ain't.

I begins ok, looks and plays like a Nickelodeon-production. Until the f-bombs start coming. Then n-bombs. What the heck is this? It's colorful and with young actors, but they keep swearing, it's pretty weird.

Then one of the characters does something so mind-numbingly stupid and out of character, that I pretty much lost all hope from there. Plus, the weak-ass "political" message: cops are evil and kill black people for sport, is so on the nose it's embarrassing. Even though this movie shows plenty of black-on-black crime, it's still made out to be solely because of racism. Look, racism is real and it sucks, but does EVERY movie with a black cast have to be about the same thing? Come on.

And here's the kicker. This movie is weak with a sucky script, the IMDB-rating as of now is 4,9, but the critics seems to love it! I wonder why. Could it be because of the weak-sauce "politics" on display?

To be fair, the main characters do a good job, acting is pretty alright. They are pretty and charming. And Michael J Fox has a cameo, so watch the first 5 minutes or so, to catch him. Then skip.
