Review by lostatlimbo

It's understandable that a lot of people gave up on the movie right away... there's a lot to swallow and even more to digest. But if you are a fan of mind-bending movies, time travel, or just a well-made independent film, you owe it to yourself to give this movie a chance. For starters... this is the first movie about time-travel that isn't riddle with illogical loopholes and lazy writing. In this case, complexity equals completeness... no detail is shrugged off or ignored.

In the interest of full-disclosure, I should warn you that the first time I watched it, I preceded to watch it twice more the same night... staying up into the wee hours trying to wrap my mind around everything that is going on in this brilliant debut. And then I watched it twice more the next day. Its not just the complexity of the time-traveling plot or keeping track of all the doubles that prompts repeat viewings - its the layers of subtlety that give the film its depth and character. It's a truly rare work that rewards the viewer based on their level of participation (i.e. how close are you paying attention?) Sure, the budget was minimal, but nothing is lost that would have been found with a million dollars in hand. I'll gladly sacrifice film and sound quality for a brilliant story that sticks in my mind for days and days later. And what of the inexperienced cast who brings a haunting realism to their characters? This movie is bare bones in the best way possible... no fluff or glamour to distract from the genuinely unique story.
