I bought this movie about a week ago from the Walmart and I should have gone with my gut. There was something telling me not to get it but it had Malcolm McDowell so it couldn't be that bad, right? Wrong. He couldn't even save this movie. I still have no idea what's going on and it took me four days to finish it. I fell asleep before the ending and every time I put it back on I forgot where I left off because it was so hard to retain anything. I was bored to tears. I think I'd rather watch paint dry. No, I'd rather play Go Fish with a bunch silent Monks while waiting for paint to dry than to watch this movie again. Two stars for the cover art.
Was expecting a good scifi movie around black holes or parallel universes. Nope...not that at all. As I was watching it, I started to think that it was really a psychothriller based on extreme trauma. Nope...not that at all. With the closing credits I realized that it was really a test as to whether or not I would throw a brick at the TV for withstanding 2 hours of this drek. I have to wonder if McDowell or Cane felt embarrassed being in this disaster when they saw the final cut. OMG I can't imagine anyone paying to see this abortion.
I love weird movies, space, time travel, etc. I love all that. This was something that I can't even put into words. The description of the movie is being overly generous. Its like saying Star Wars is about a family squabble. Honestly the best thing about the movie is the music, and thats a stretch also. Maybe it was being filmed in Colorado or that I have seen better home made movies, but this movie was not good. I mean Dean and McDowell were side characters at best. It must have been that legalized pot that made this movie the way it was. And maybe if you were high it would make more sense. But being stone cold sober and not on drugs; well lets just say that I lost the time in watching this movie that no amount of time or space will I ever get back. Skip this all the way to the dump bin.
After watching this - if I were an Electron - I'd shoot my self in an infinite number of places all at the same time.
This movie - and I use the term lightly - is about as Sci-Fi as my left sock .
Never mind the lack of a coherent story line - what's up with the acting - especially the character of the shrink lady - she's about as stiff and wooden as a Cricket bat.
There's not many movies that I can't reach the end of but this was one of them . I managed to get through 1 hour and 25 minutes and then hit the stop button ( which I now have renamed the "Please Please stop " button.
Do not watch.

The summary sounded promising, though vague, but the 4 rating should have been a warning. Decided to watch due to Malcolm McDowell being in the cast. Big mistake! From screenplay to directing and acting, it was mediocre at best. What could have been a good idea, it did not happen: no plot, no script. It is hard to pinpoint were it went wrong. Perhaps when the writer had the idea for the script, or when anyone decided to actually pay for it. I thought about the spoiler alert, but it is hard to write about a plot when there is none. About acting, when the best was the mediocre acting of Mr McDowell (I love him, but here he couldn't help much). Pretty much the same happening all over again, with slight changes in setting, no logic in anything. Sometimes the music can build some suspense, but even that was a fail. 1 star for Malcolm McDowell, 1 for the film.

- GoofsThe science behind the radiometer (in Mr. Willis' car) is in fact well understood, contrary to his "explanation". It does not contain a vacuum, contrary to his "explanation"; when the black sides of the vanes absorb infrared radiation from a powerful source like sunshine they heat up, warming the air which touches them and causing it to expand and push the vanes around. Body heat from the palm of a hand is not powerful enough, again contrary to his "explanation".
