Reviews
Tries hard to be affecting and mind-blowing, and sometimes it comes close.
La película nos presenta una premisa interesante, pero nunca atiende su potencial.
Assez bien dans l’ensemble, mais la fascinante prémise n’est jamais vraiment exploité à sa hauteur.
Despite a fairly upbeat ending, the ugly images dominate the film with the time/reality plot a bloody nose afterthought.
Cool theories...don’t necessarily guarantee good stories...[even if Ashton Kutcher] is repeatedly punk'd by the space-time continuum.
Walks a super-thin line between horrific believability and hilarious unbelievability.
...filmmakers frequently cheat the facts (even their own), but as straightforward entertainment, this butterfly spreads its wings in many unexpected ways.
Pena que a dupla de roteiristas não pôde realizar façanha semelhante à do herói e voltar no tempo a fim de rever suas decisões: o último ato do filme merecia uma nova chance.
Una vez que creemos que el viaje es posible, podemos pasar a disfrutar por completo las secuencias.
If you want plot twists and mind-bending, just stick to 'The Usual Suspects' and 'Memento'
