Volition

As a scifi fan with a penchant for time travel shenanigans this film was right up my street and for 90 minutes we were suitably entertained.

Is it Inception? No. So while the sniffy reviews are not completely wrong neither are they right. 5.4 is a silly low average score for a film this well made.

For a low budget small film that drops in at the required 90 minutes for easy Covid viewing it was just the ticket.

Yes, the characters are not massively deep enough, especially the "love interest". Yes, there are a plot few holes here and there with continuity bloopers. Yes, the "science bit" was a little low rent in its believability.

But put these aside and you'll find a fun Looper knock off to while away the time and a fun "time travel conundrum" with some great pay off's later in the film.

I enjoy almost anything sci fi, but this one is frustrating to watch.

"Hey, I think I'll give this loser $10million worth of diamonds to try to find a seller, while I work in my hardware store. What could go wrong? "

Rife with bits of good ideas plagiarized from several other recognizable stories - zero original content in this one.

Watch it yourself, and you'll see the other reviews are as ridiculous as the movie

If you liked Timecrimes aka. Crono Crimenes, you will most likely enjoy this movie, too as it heads in a similar direction. It is short enough to not get boring and the story, while rather unbelievable on the science part, is really entertaining. The actors are likeable but not outstanding. All in all, it is definitely an above average movie. 6.5/10

But then again, I am a big fan of time travel / time loop movies, so I might be biased.

.....and this becomes a decent low budget sci fi movie. Sort of a poundland Looper meets Primer mashup.

It looked like another psychic loser that couldn't make enough money to keep up his rent. In short order it turned into a semi-love story which soon morphed into an ingenious time-travel yarn! Unexpected twists popped up and the plot changed from a modest jog in the park to a to a warp-speed relay race.
