Repeat

The story kept me interested throughout, I was not sure which direction it was going to go and the main plot of the movie was a thought provoking concept. The highlight for me though was the emotional representation of the lead roles who are trying to navigate through their grief and the impact this has on their relationship.

Really don't get the rating compared to other films with higher ratings. Found it very moving and quite clever. I think it also tied up the loose ends nicely. Well worth a watch.

I found this movie had a really interesting take on the theme of alternate realities and is one of the few movies in this genre where I was left saying "Wow, I didn't see that coming" which was a pleasant surprise. The story also did a good job of keeping the alternate timelines together and cohesive. I really enjoyed it. One note: This is the type of movie you can't leave to go get a snack, etc otherwise you will be lost. Get everything you need ahead of time and pay attention to the details.

Let's cut to the chase. About 19 out of 20 indies are rubbish. It is the nature of the beast. Richard Miller's REPEAT is without doubt the 1 in 20 that is so good it mimics theatre quality, or at the very least broadcast TV quality. The writing, acting, and direction are superb. Nor is the audience spoon-fed with frothy exposition. Right off the top, the viewer has to roll up their sleeves and figure out what exactly is going on with this very strange, very frazzled, college professor whose little girl is missing; his marriage is imploding; his job is in jeopardy; and oh yeah every night he gives free public demos of his new invention which, coincidentally, actually talks to the dead. Eerily similar in tone and pacing to Darren Aronofsky's Pi (1998). Well worth a watch.

Not going to give any spoiler alerts; suffice it to say this indie film has heart, intrigue, mystery and a slightly Dr Who feel to it (in a good way). Suspend disbelief for a while and enjoy the ride.
