Featured reviews
For the ones about to watch this film here's a few things to consider: it's a nicely shot film with an interesting storyline and good acting. Pace is slow but picks up half way through and the plot keeps you interested. You 'll encounter some inconsistencies and some massive plot holes but if you're willing to put these aside, you ll enjoy it. 7,5/10
If you are a fan of Benson and Moorhead's previous work, you will most likely enjoy this feature too as they maintain their same storytelling style that smoothly combines fantasy, horror and comedy. And with a larger budget this time, they're able express their mind-bending stories to a greater level.
Specifically, the score and cinematography are great throughout the film and exceptional at some points. Also, both Anthony Mackie and Jamie Dornan deliver fantastic performances of two best friends who are struggling with their own personal obstacles.
The story itself is unique in a general sense. But within the realms of the sub-genre that it plays into, it can seem somewhat typical if you follow those types of films. However, the approach taken to portray this story is unique. For me, this separated it from other films of similar narratives and it kept me engaged with the story and the characters.

Really cool, well acted and intelligent scifi indie movie with a lot of heart. To me it's a solid 8. A nice wrapped up story where you really feel the personality and relationships of the few members of the story.
It makes sense, people feel real and the story is interesting. This is not a blockbuster, just something you can enjoy if you are into sci-fi and mind benders.
Kudos to all involved.
I truly think that the reason this is sitting at 6 out of 10 and not 8, is because of the dog thing.
So many people freaked out about that. But he is sad and he is out of time. So to me it makes sense.

Why is it that when theres a movie with an original idea or script people complain and hate about it, because of this toxicity future writers and directors might not want to take the next step to do original ideas. Yes, the movie is not a masterpiece and sometimes it feels a bit rushed ( when Anthony M. Starts discovering how it works ) but overall it has a great concept, great actors and emotion. Just watch it and ignore the bad reviews.
Greetings from Lithuania.
"Synchronic" (2019) is a movie with interesting premise. I won't go into details or spoilers, just will say that its an pretty unique take on time and friendship. At the core i think this movie was simply about friendship of two paramedics, and what they will do for each other. Also this movie's tone and cinematography were pretty interesting as they gave this movie a bit of a unique feeling and look.
Overall, those who are looking for a descent but at the same time different science fiction movie could check this one out - its a pretty good one and crafted in a way you won't see very often.
