It's a small package that delivers a sizeable punch. Go to Full Review
Michael Sicinski Cinema Scope Nov 18, 2017
Bearing an unnervingly derivative resemblance to Shane Carruth's Primer, which did much more with considerably less, the debut feature by TV writer Tony Elliott comes off like a low-budget, low-stakes riff on Edge of Tomorrow. Go to Full Review
Molly Horan Refinery29 Jun 26, 2017
Watching a bad movie is never an enjoyable experience. But there's something particularly excruciating about watching a bad movie that keeps repeating the same thing every 10 minutes. Go to Full Review

Not a great movie, but it is a worthy approach to the exciting cinematic universe of time traveling. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review
Juan Tolentino Cinema Movil Sep 23, 2016
A futuristic movie that is entertaining, but not memorable and ends being disappointing. [Full review in Spanish] Go to Full Review

A disappointingly half-baked sci-fi endeavor... Go to Full Review

Han P Feb 13, 2019 Interesting premise, but failed to deliver satisfaction. Ambiguous endings are great for some films but in this case it seemed to be a way to end a story that wasn't fully fleshed out. There were too many conclusions drawn with no explanation as to how or why the characters knew what they knew or did what they did. The ending somewhat betrayed the big reveal. It was fun while it lasted, but it didn't last long - and probably for the best. See more
Nov 1, 2018 The main character Renton, is the most insufferable person in any movie ever.
Oct 4, 2018 A great sci-fi flick with a refreshing take on the "repeating time" storyline (think Groundhog Day). The film is suspenseful with plenty of good twists throughout, yet not so demanding of your attention that it becomes tiring to watch. The film also knows how to use its small scale setting to it's advantage whilst hinting at a larger world offscreen. The only downside to this is that you're left with the impression that you should be watching a sequel or accompanying TV/book/comic series so that you can really understand the world that is talked about so much, although in many ways this could be seen as a compliment as I left the film wanting more. Ultimately, if you're a fan of sci-fi and suspense then you'll be doing yourself a disservice by skpping this (as long as you don't mind open-ended endings). See more
Ron R Aug 21, 2018 85 minutes of your life are wasted over a stupid movie, it ended just like how it began.
Harry W Jul 16, 2018 Overall it was an interesting film, the only thing that I did not like was the ending!
Ron S Jun 18, 2018 I was concerned about the provenance, or rather lack of, of the cast. As it is, they turn in a decent enough shift. Time travel films are always difficult propositions in terms of continuity and exposition, but this one covers the details well enough. It's just a bit dull, is all. See more
