Everywhen

Someone tried to make something interesting here. They failed.

I don't know anything about the people who made this, but I'd like to. I'm guessing they're college students, or maybe even high schoolers and this is their first attempt at a movie. If so, good try guys. Better luck next time.

This really is a paradox of a movie. It's sort of quirky and has some original ideas and yet it's horribly cliched as well, full of characters and plot devices you have seen before in much better movies. You will find yourself wondering what is going on right from the outset. Part of that is obviously intentional, but most of it is due to a poorly-written script. When the thing comes to its conclusion and all is revealed, you will be none the wiser about what it was all about. I found myself wondering if this movie would have been better if it was longer and there was more time for the story to unwind and develop. Being honest though, I think the 70 minutes the movie does run for is about all I could take. It doesn't help that the acting and the dialogue are just abysmal or that there is no tension at all. Curiously, the producers of this seem to want us to believe it is set in the USA. The language is English, the character names are American, and you may even spot a US flag on one soldier's sleeve. Unfortunately, all the street signs are in Norwegian and so is the architecture, so that sort of spoils the illusion.

Would I recommend this? No. If you have an hour to kill though and you're prepared to lower your expectations (and I really mean 'lower') then by all means watch it. You won't enjoy it, but it will pass the time.

This have to be the worst film I've ever watched.

The plot was good, and I really wanted to see what happened next. It was hard to not turn it off. I only watched the whole thing because it was filmed in my home town of Oslo.

What ruined the whole film, and made me just laugh and shake my head through the whole film was the horrible horrible acting, and bad directing.

There where just so many things that just didn't make sense, and thing that should have been put extra focus on for it to make sense for the viewer. It was just bad all around.

Even the plot was bad. Good idea. BAD writing.

This film is so bad, it's almost so bad it's fun to watch. Almost..

After watching this movie, I read a review that was enlightening about how it is a low budget, amateur made movie. That makes this movie more impressive than if it were a big budget movie by experienced crews.

I thought the video quality, special effects and acting by the two main characters were impressive. The plot was thought provoking but at times I did get confused. Now for my criticisms... The audio was mostly fine (I think there were a few instances of audio clipping) but there was way too much bass in the sound. I have my home theater calibrated well and the bass was so powerful that it shook my projector and the movie was visibly shaky at times because of this. The worst acting was by the woman who played Jane Scott. Her acting style was mainly just having an intense look on her face and looking side to side when she talked. Lastly, the SWAT team in this movie almost seemed inept at times. In most scenes, they had to get into position and were slow to shoot, making them easy targets for the teenage leading characters to kill off.

Overall, I applaud this movie. It reminded me of the American movie called Jumper, which is the highest compliment I can give it. Those involved in creating this movie could become very successful with a little bit more experience and refinement.

Possibly worst movie in history, no kidding...

This movie should never ever have been released on the open market. It is actually a Norwegian school project made by a bunch of teenagers with a camera, not a movie at all.

You are better of watching just about anything else then this. Keep away at all cost, I mean it seriously. STAY AWAY !

There is nothing more to say about this "movie" but for the review to be accepted I must write more.

I can't say that I exactly enjoyed "Everywhen," but I was impressed by how well shot and edited it was, and how well it conveyed a sense of alternate worlds and time...not so much travel as...loops. You even have some sense of character development, as the personalities of the two leads change over the course of the hour and even reverse, becoming more like the other. How and why those personalities change isn't very well established, though, nor is what exactly was happening or had happened that set the plot into motion. I suppose a grand answer to the question of "What's going on?" isn't necessary if you look at the film as a sort of chamber piece set within a larger story, but it's frustrating to be left in the dark. Nevertheless, in mood and atmosphere, "Everywhen" felt like a pretty good episode of "Fringe" or "The X-Files."

Honestly, the worst thing about "Everywhen" were the gunfights between the protagonists and the police, including SWAT units, which were ridiculously one-sided. Those felt like childish male fantasies, straight out of video games these days, or one-sided games of cops and robbers back in the day.
