Diagonaldi Very well executed
Micah Lloyd Excellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.
Myron Clemons A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.
Ortiz Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.
msigmond20 This is more cerebral than your average time travel movie, which is saying a lot because most time travel movies are messing with your head from the start. This one has an interesting premise, that is hard to describe without spoilers, but in general terms it is looking at the grandparent paradox and one way the universe might force consistency out of it. There is a recent time travel book called Version Control that does much the same thing, choosing to create paradoxes in the universe in order to avoid other ones. That means viewers that prefer obvious, explainable loops like Back to the Future will be disappointed by what seem to be inconsistencies in the plot, but those viewers who want to take their time travel game up a notch will have a lot to chew on here, If you pay attention, this one will have you mulling over things for days.The story is helped along by poignant reflections on grief and human connections. In some ways the grief aspect of the story could have been more developed, but on the other hand it was given more serious screen time than what you would normally see in a movie like this.Pulling in Linda Hamilton for a cameo was inspired; she really underplayed it.
drael64 Pluses- the mystery and suspense, the sound effects and sound tracking, the camera work, some good thoughtful dialogue and the leads acting which holds together the movie Minuses- some wooden support acting, and the plot doesn't entirely make sense how it ends. Overall, work a watch if you don't mind more amateur indie sci-fi and don't expect too much, but if you expect something Hollywood polished, action driven, special fx driven or mindbendingly crafted, give it a miss.
hopeseekr Without giving away any real spoilers, this is the worst time traveler movie I have ever seen (which is probably the vast majority of them). Even the time-traveling building miniseries was so so much better than this. If this is all they could do with time travel, well, then they definitely do not deserve the tech at all. And good riddance! Do you really want these same folks mucking with the timeline?!
sevenhorseshoes I had to wash out the bad taste in my eyeballs by watching Terminator again. That's okay to a certain extent as I was about due for another viewing of said masterpiece.Although, I like how much the lead actress looked like a younger Linda Hamilton, seeing them act together(though briefly) and the Terminator like music (which was actually better than this movie deserved). Interestingly enough, the fact that Linda was so phenomenal as Sarah and the lead actress in Curvature was so bad shows (to a certain extent) how much good acting has gone downhill in 30 years. If Samuel L Jackson can consistently act great in many bad movies, the lead actress in this can too. And this I found more interesting than the storyline of this movie. I'm surprised this got made at all and attracted the talent that it did.Best acting goes to the dead guy in flashback, followed closely by the ladybug (yes the insect kind).
