Andariel Halo it's basically the same plot device as "Edge of Tomorrow" starring tom cruise and Emily blunt, but with a substantially lower budget and, quite frankly, boring.this film spends too much time with the repetitions, introducing certain elements and subelements with varying degrees of interest. They did a decent job of setting up a greater world story without using expo-dumping.By the time it starts to get interesting the film's almost over. There's suggestions of a seemingly infinite period of time spent in the loops, and the added element suggesting the time looping isn't happening universally, but only within the building the film is taking place in. Yet despite that, the people in the loop are able to communicate via radio with outside operators that is not addressed or suggestive of some further time looping at all, so it sticks out as a major plot hole.Aside from that, the majority of the film is just flat out boring

cmovies-99674 PROS: ARQ is one of the better suspense films I've seen in a long time. Renton (Robbie Amell) plays his role with perfection, everything he does or has done was done with a purpose. Often you'll see a main character that's smart and doesn't show it, or dumb and miraculously becomes smart, but this movies character were well developed and very strategic. Another great thing about this movie was that it was able to keep the viewer interested. In case you didn't know, the main characters keep waking up after they've been killed, this would normally leave the movie to not be able to pick up the tension as the film progresses. However, ARQ does a great job at making this thriller stay thrilling throughout the movie to the end. To add on, the ending was very well crafted, it left the watcher thinking. We weren't trying to fill in the holes or arguing with the outcome, we were left pondering the meaning of it.CONS: There was a lot good to be said about ARQ, but there is one flaw that sticks out in my opinion. That flaw was the acting. It was good but it also had a very teenage horror vibe to it that I don't normally go for. Other than that the movie was a successwww.chorror.com

jjpete70 Live, die, repeat. Sound familiar. But instead of aliens, what if it's accidental science, a crime, freedom fighters, a menacing corporation?Includes love triangle, betrayal in multiple forms, and a wonderfully slow reveal of the clues to what's going on.It keeps your attention, wondering how the protagonist will move forward through an endless repeating time loop. With some fairly good writing and great performances, it is an entertaining flick.The not-so-good. Due to the challenge of being consistent when dealing with time travel/loop movies, plot holes open easily and are resolved with sudden shifts in character's behavior/motivations/actions. There is inadequate explanation as to what's going on outside (think 10 Cloverfield Lane) and not all characters are given any depth.Final conclusion: a worthwhile viewing

Ryan-lindsey1 This is an excellent movie. I'm a huge fan of time travel/time loop movies, and this one does not disappoint. In fact, it is one of my favorites. It is wonderfully acted, and keeps you guessing, and hooked till the end. Do not judge this book by its cover. I promise it will surprise you if you let it. My only regret is not having come across this sooner, and for the life of me I cannot understand why this movie didn't have more press announcement, or anything of that caliber. I had never even heard of it until I came across it on the IMDb suggestions. Seriously, if you are a fan of time travel/loop movies, or even just sci-fi in general, definitely give ARQ a go. You're welcome, in advance.
