Time Rush

I read the critics and I must say, without doubt not legit at all. Jealousy? or? I watched the movie without knowing how it would be and didn't expect it to be so good. But the idea was nicely done, the filming was great and some fights very very top! I refer for exemple to the big fight scene near the temple between the Captain and Alex: to me one of the best fight scenes. The contrast between both, and an absolute action packed fight. Honestly better then most of the Hollywood martial arts fights seen. Maybe some parts were too long but overall an action movie to be discovered. You will find some hidden action scenes/ fights you will be surprised of.

No, this movie isn't going to win any awards, esp. because of its frequently atrocious acting and dialogue, BUT, those things are just placeholders. The real substance is the martial arts scenes and great stunt choreography on the one side, and the pretty astounding sci-fi/time viewing twist on the other. Ambitiously, this movie is trying to be "Memento" by being based around a plot about an experimental drug which simultaneously makes you forget the past and foresee the future! From a sci-fi point of view, it's not bad at all, even if it does seem to me to end with a logically impossible (but illuminating and satisfying) paradox. This is a pretty good and worthwhile movie if you are a fan of both martial arts movies and sci-fi, like I am, so I actually think this movie is impressive - and, of course, underrated.

My rating: 6 stars out of 10. I might have given it 7 if it didn't have so many repeating scenes. But it was nicely put together under the circumstances. And very cool moves by writer/star Dean Alexandru! Sadly for this movie, it is too smart for its usual target audience of action movie fans, who consequently give it a very poor rating. You actually need to have your brain switched on when watching it. Otherwise you're not gonna get it.

Hello everyone,

First of all I would like to say that I have nothing to do with the production of this film but I am also working on the independent scene (feel free to check my work). I have read some very harsh reviews and I believe this film simply doesn't deserve them. You may like the final product or not but you also have to understand that it is incredibly difficult to make an independent film and these guys managed to make an action/martial arts flick with a story that allowed them to do so (lots of compromise involved I'm sure). This probably meant very little money to make the film and even less/no money to gain. Most independent artistes do what they do for the love of the art (or Action) and not for the money. They created some cool action/martial arts scenes and when you focus on making this kind of film, you don't always have the equipment quality nor the luxury of time to do everything well. Remember this is not a studio film, it's not like they had a huge budget for the film and failed to deliver. They did a small action film with everything they had and worked hard and fast to make the film happen. when you deal with action & stunts, it takes time to get everything right at once and it is time consuming. When doing so, it leaves little place to focus on the acting which becomes secondary. They intended to make an action film and focused on doing that. An action flick with talented stunt actors. Well done guys! Give these guys a bigger budget and I'm sure they will surprise you!

If you want to learn, how to act bad, watch this movie.

I don't know if it's the bad writing of dialogs or the actors having no clue about acting or both together, but it's really bad.

I can't point out why it is bad, because some of the actors seem to try really hard, but they just can't. I assume you can't act good with shitty dialogs, so even if some of them could act, they weren't able to. Just like famous actors couldn't act to Lucas' Star Wars Episode I- III too.

I gave it 3 for effort.

This movie doesn't deserve ten lines of review, but IMDb made it mandatory, so I am writing something here.

All positive reviews for this movie are fake. This is a very cheap and poorly made film with amateur acting, stupid plot and they had no idea how to end the movie. After only a few minutes of the start it becomes glaringly obvious that the actors cannot act, the dialog is silly and the whole thing does not convey any emotion at all. It is a struggle to understand what the idea is and you are left feeling that this was a total waste of time. Whoever reviewed it with 4 or more stars is most likely associated in some way with the producers or the cast. There is simply no justification to award it anything more than a big fat zero. Avoid!
