Shuffle

Gosh!!!! I wish i could give this movie a 10! After seeing "Validation" short movie so many times, i was already a fan of TJ Thyne. Well, he does not disappoint in Shuffle, neither any of the other actors. The plot is clever, the photography is amazing (the B&W really works!), and time flew by as i was living the story... until the VERY END almost ruined it all! I agree with other review here... After those last minutes, i felt like i was slapped on the face, after being swept away! I did not understand the need of that last scene, as everything falls in place without it.

Watch it if you can. It's a very nice piece of cinema art!

P.S: Only after yesterday's episode of "Bones" i realized that Thyne is Dr. Jack Hodgins!! Maybe my head was focused because i was "getting shuffled" latter on!

What an incredibly talented writer, director and composer Kurt Kuenne is! The movie really kept me intrigued and the music was just beautiful. I really didn't expect much at all from this obviously low budget sci fi movie, but wow did it deliver. It really did have that feel of 'Its a Wonderful life'! Do yourself a favour and get past the low budget look and watch this gem....

Movie suffers from poor cinematography, or at the very least sepia/fuzzy grading makes it look worse than it deserves to be. Probably should be remade or at least just reshot.

Pacing can be slow, but worth watching if you like high concept dramas in the same vein of Groundhog's Day or The Lake House then you'll probably like this. Performances are hit and miss, but I'd imagine that Kurt Kuen manage to attract some decent talent due to his heart breaking film Dear Zachery. Makeup is pretty good too.

Give the movie a shot.

I was expecting this to be a time travel thriller/mystery, but it ultimately turned out to be more of an "It's a Wonderful Life" kind of thing. And oddly enough, I wasn't disappointed when it headed in that direction. It definitely has its issues: needless melodrama, cliches all over the place, a twist that isn't too hard to figure out, and an ending that just seems superfluous. However, maybe I just watched this on the right day or something because I found myself sucked in by the sweetness of it. With all the bad stuff going on in the world every day, this movie was a nice little diversion that made me laugh and cry, and left me with a nice case of the warm fuzzies.

When I first saw it I thought it would be The same fanatic Movies that's just rubbing the whole time travel thing That I am fed up to it but it actually takes a very humanitarian look on it and I like the end to justify all that with a very realistic look and makes you wonder how to live your life the fullest and be kind to everyone else so The message is loud and clear
