Makes Primer look like it makes perfect sense.

This I would imagine is a low budget film, although the tech looked good enough. The plot/story/timeline kind of disappeared up it's own backside. Shame really, as someone obviously tried to do something!

It's like Jacobs Ladder, without the ladder.... or Jacob.

Seriously bad and not worth the time to waste. Even the audio is seriously bad. Anything that would contribute to the illusion of a film experience is flawed.

Rewatch Soon

Glad I went on a hunch and bought instead of rent, cause I need to rewatch this soon. I think I missed some stuff early on, cause there are layers to this dish player.

Good story

Had this obscure film recommended to me online. Seemed very low budget for sure. But the story is pretty crazy, never seen so many directions. Was entertaining just to try to follow along.

Gets better

Was kinda hard to watch for first 20 minutes or so, then it had a lot of turns and twists and ended up being really good by the end.

Low budget Inception

This was clearly made with a super low budget, (I think it says 90,000$. But the story was pretty similar in that you had to think a lot, and I'm going to have to watch it again to see how much of I got it. Don't want to spoil too much, but instead of layers of dreams, its layers of virtual reality, and the time lines are edited so you jump around between them a lot. But honestly, I think I ended up getting most of it by the end. But like I said it think there is probably a lot more going on for when I watch in another time. I would recommend this if your into thinking sci-fi films.

Pure Scifi geek stuff

This film is all about the concepts. Very easy to get lost in it, as I did many times. But some of the concepts in this film eventually come to the surface and would make for a great book.
