Madelines

OK Low budget but still... 100+ bodies dead but no explanation as to what they do with those bodies before the benefactor provides a dump truck.

All new madalines are created from a single incidence. The protagonists are moving through time one day at a time, supposedly the madalines returning from the future have been into the future and are returning to the protagonist timeline, each one, one day later than the previous one. It doesnt make sense that each new madeline is returning one day later. It doesnt make sense that some madalines die in the future but each new day a new madeline turns up. It doesnt make any sense that each madeline returning from the future returns one day later even though the new madalines were created 60 seconds apart.

If there are 3600 in the future and each one has to wait an extra day than the previous before returning, what are all those future madalines eating.

The Script has holes The sound is OK The Photography is ok The Acting is hammy

Its a passable watch 👍👎

Madeline (Brea Grant) and Owen (Parry Shen) are a couple working on time travel for investor Rory Devonshire (Richard Riehle). The successful small project develops a flaw in the code which generate a new version of Madeline every day. They have to take care of every new Madeline.

This indie has an interesting concept. Its microscopic budget holds it back. This wants to be funny, but the execution is not there. The directing is weak. The timing is off. It is trying so hard to punch above its weight. In the end, it is obviously unable to get there. I do like Brea Grant in her multiple versions.

The writers watched Primer and went "Ok, let's steal this, but make it dumber, so nobody notices." It's slow, the plot goes nowhere, and it's unoriginal. Even by low budget, indie standards, it's bad.

Seriously, rather watch the original they plagiarised this from.

Brea Grant played her part well, but Parry Shen was out of place as both husband & co-inventer. He was mostly annoying, & ruined any chance of just rolling with the plot holes & silliness of this sci-fi comedy turned slasher project. I'd like to see Grant in a better production. Shen is more suited for run-of-the-mill corny sit-coms.

Everyone who rated this movie below a 5 obviously hasn't seen the rest of the movies rated below 5. The movie has heart and has a message that I won't iterate because it would be a spoiler. The ending, I believe was chosen so that it would be unexpected or a surprise. The surprise ending spoils the message because it doesn't deliver the intended message. I mean it could but maybe it doesn't because the ending leaves the time beyond a certain point as a mystery. Therefore any message you believe to be there is just uncertain to be the author's intent. Brea did a great job of acting. Those who love movies with heart and Brea Grant will definitely enjoy it. And the body double was fantastic too.
