This thing catches fire in the middle and doesn't slow down

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.

Decent Sci-Fi movie

Movies like this can be a tough sell. Time travel obviously does not exist, yet there are many out there who are quick to say "That wouldn't happen". Yes, the writers have to have some creative freedom to break away and develop their ideas, but they also have to somehow convince us at the same time, so it can be a fine line.

In Volition there were definitely a few elements which I have seen played out in other time travel movies, mainly the whole cause and effect scenario, however they did try to put their own twist on things which I liked.

As much as I enjoyed those time travel elements I did find myself at times questioning the story. But overall there was some strong performances and enough to keep me entertained throughout.

Not even a good deus ex machina

I really wanted to like this. The leads are solid and attractive in their way, the concept is okay but breaks down over the course of the movie, and everything in it has been done over and over. And then reading all these reviews that swear it's the greatest movie since the last greatest movie, makes me think some reviewers are just not paying attention. I wouldn't pay to see this movie, and even finding it on Netflix I would come away a little disappointed.

Definitely worth a watch

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.

Don't expect too much.....

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

Goofs
At about 1 hr:20 min in the film, Jimmy & Terry are fighting outside the rear of Elliot's house. Jimmy eventually hits Terry three times with a shovel. The 3rd strike causes Terry to pass out & drop his gun which goes off accidentally when it hits the pavement and shoots the 'other Jimmy' in the shoulder. The next shot shows Terry still unconscious but holding the gun in his right hand.
