The key here is to keep things moving without letting the logical (or illogical) complications weigh down the action, and [director] Vigalondo does this well. Mar 13, 2009 | Rating: B | Full Review…

An enterprising Spanish time-travel thriller, that's light on DeLoreans and lightning bolts, but heavy on fiendish cross-currents of temporal interaction. Feb 6, 2009 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

Fiendishly convoluted and stylishly crafted, Time Crime is a low-budget sci-fi thriller from Spain that ably demonstrates the value of a neat idea, cleverly executed. Feb 5, 2009 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

Watching "Timecrimes" is like stumbling in a pitch-black haunted house. Hitting walls where paths should be is fun, and time-travel tropes of choice versus fate are inventively goosed. Even with five minutes left, it could conclude in any number of ways. Nov 1, 2010 | Rating: 4/4 | Full Review…

The idyllic but mundane world of the film's opening segues smoothly into a sequence out of a highly intelligent slasher film, before finally settling into its niche as a darkly funny, and at times mildly disturbing, sci-fi thriller. Jun 12, 2010 | Rating: 8/10 | Full Review…
