This was one of the worst 2-3 movies I have ever seen, and I've seen a lot. And sadly, this is no overstatement.
Short version: It REALLY looks like they took a bad 10-15 minute short, and blew it up to the length it has now. And this is not a cute way to describe the quality, but probably what *really* happened here.
Long version: After seeing it, I was asking myself two questions: What were they even going for, what was this supposed to be? And why did nobody stop them and why didn't they at least try to improve it?
And to me, it seems obvious, that at some point they did become aware of the fact, that they can't rescue it, and went into "lets get it over with" mode, and they did the worst thing possible: They made countless "playing for time" shots to get the length: Without plot, dialog, action, effects or *anything* happening.
Additionally they tried to take the mystery ("what did really happen?") route, but at the same time, everybody - the audience and all characters - know what happened from the beginning. While the characters try to find out "what happened", they literally say what happened.
Lost Time could have been a more or less good 10 minute short. What were they thinking? There were established actors and crew involved, why didn't they stop this madness? I can't stress this enough: Most parts really look like they were made on one weekend literally without any screenplay with the objective "we need another 45 mins, and we need it as cheap and fast as possible".
