I’m a sucker for time travel movies, and throw some sappy romantic dilemmas and I’m all over it. This movie really hit the feels hard, I thought the acting was great, especially Judy Greer who I’d really only seen comedically. Highly recommend this tight sci fi drama.

If you can get past the cringe, there’s a taut sci-fi head scratcher in here. 

The conceit is that a friend of a dead man invents a time machine that can fire a bullet into the past to kill a person. The widower hears this and says “great, let’s use it”. 

The beginning is a patience-testing marathon of low-budget drama movie cliches. After someone dies, you’re never allowed to turn the light on. You have the delinquent child cliche, and the “widow/widower struggling to connect with their kid as a single parent” cliche. The mad scientist friend proposes his invention and she says “Mal is dead, you know that. It’s impossible”. I was watching with captions, and there was a lot of “(solemn music continues)”.

The best bits are when it gets philosophical: when the central characters discuss this real-life trolley problem, you sit up in your seat.

This gets a pass. Idk, I just like sci-fi.
