Anyone see this yet? Cool sci/fi indie nerd flick. Really got me thinking.

Heh, is that that really confusing, boring, time-travely thing that put me to sleep and totally lost me?

Yeah, I think I saw it. Heh.

Whoops, sorry Syl.

I really liked the film, even though it confused the crap out of me.

It's ok. Yeah, me too. I really liked that the more I thought about it, the more it made sense. It's not like, say, the Sixth Sense where you just watch it again and understand everything.

Yeah. It's currently on cable, and I've watched it three times just trying to figure it out. It's rare that a film gets me thinking this much, and the fact that I keep watching a movie about a bunch of guys that really do nothing but talk means quite a bit.

YES!!!

it took me 3 times to figure it out too.

i love this movie. i understand how some may find the slow pacing boring.
i did not. i liked it. still like it.

i like how the guy made the film. i like the ending.

i LIKED having to watch it 3 times to figure it out.

i got lost during the film and not really sure if understand the ending. anyone care to explain? i did enjoy it much though.

It takes a couple of viewings.

Remember, the director is only letting us see what both of the guys see. There's a lot going on that's never shown onscreen.

it's just that i'm so very very seriously TIRED of being SPOON FED by hollywood.

made me like this movie all the more because i HAD to watch it 3 times!

Watched it a few months ago late at night. I was hooked right away, but had trouble keeping up with it.

I knew half way through that I'd have to watch it at least once more. I'll definitely rent it again when I have a long free night to pay close attention to it.

Something that really impressed me was that it was a low budget sci-fi-ish movie that didn't look cheesy. It delivered a (believable?) premise about time travel that didn't rely on special effects.

Yeah, that's exactly what I liked about it. I think it was made for something ridiculous like $7,000, but the dialog is so dense and......natural, with people talking over each other.

I think I may have to get the DVD.

Posted: **Wed Aug 16, 2006 3:28 am**

i own it.

Posted: **Wed Aug 16, 2006 10:03 am**

Of course you do.

Posted: **Wed Aug 16, 2006 1:22 pm**

great movie.

Couldn't find it so I bought it>fascinating! I rarely find a film that I would enjoy watching 2 or 3 more times: this is it! The Director's comments are very enlightening!

hah! great movie! glad you got it danlo.

think i'll watch it again, revive this chat!

I watched it a couple weeks ago...my wife almost killed me as she was bored silly. However, I did like it, though my brain hurt after watching it.

What was the deal with his father in law? Were we simply viewing multiple realities born of their carelessness? WTF?
