" Date: 4/24/2021 Viewed: First Viewing Crackle Note: I honestly forgot that this movie exists until someone recommended it to me for Film Club's Secret Cinema. When I found out that the directors behind Daybreakers made this movie, I was actually looking forward to watching it (Daybreakers is an underrated gem of the 2010s in my opinion). Maybe I wasn't in the right mindset for this movie, but I could not get into it at all. The story did remind me of Looper (2012) despite the source material"

"Oscuro e sottovalutato, un convincente noir fantascientifico in cui, il serpente si morde più volte la coda riuscendo a tenere sulla corda malgrado la difficoltà della sfida. Il racconto di Heinlein originario fonda le svolte narrative sul fatto che il lettore non "veda": i fratelli Spierig gli restano fedeli (a parte l'aggiunta del bombarolo, ma con la scansione temporale di una storia scritta negli anni Cinquanta) e riescono a lavorare sulla parte visiva in modo da mantenere l'incastro dei d"

" On one hand, I'm disappointed because I figured out a huge chunk of the puzzle pretty early on. On the other, what an original story!

To be honest, I don't think it is possible to write a review for this movie without completely spoiling it so, if you haven't seen it yet, you should stop reading right now. Eventually, I'm glad I didn't know anything before watching the damned thing and I'm sure it made this movie much more enjoyable.

"First Watched 1/4/2018 ........ This film is pretty great but it is also kinda weird XD but the weirdness did not really diminish the experience for me but I suspect that will vary from person to person.

It is a new way to present time travel and the performances are solid all around I would say worth a watch :) "
