MrGKB ...please and thank you, this lo-fi effort definitely needed some serious rewriting to create a viable story, never mind the necessary re-casting of a more appealing lead. I realize this was essentially a vanity project (and really, not a badly conceived one), but if the execution isn't relatively flawless, such things typically end up frustrating and confusing. "Counter Clockwise" is no exception to this rule of thumb. I won't spoil things for those who want to take a shot at this tale of time-travel paradoxes, but will mention that no one is likely to grok this film on one viewing. Sadly, it's just not worth sitting through a second time to figure things out, let alone try to digest much of the low-rent Tarantino exchanges between the nebbish lead and the various cut-out characters he encounters in his time- warping travels. Of interest strictly to time-travel completists.
James Graham I really love films concerning time travel so was looking forward to watching this. Unfortunately it was a mess. I know nothing about making films or directing but even I could tell it was badly edited and poor techniques. It really felt like a school project than an actual film. Other reviewer has compared it to Primer but at least that film looks professional and is actually a decent if complex film to watch. Anyway I would avoid this film. It really is a mess with poor acting, poor editing and a plot that makes no sense and is unbelievable. The numbers going across the computer screen when they use the "teleport" is 1980s portrayal of computers.
judejay-27989 This is very stylish film, perhaps a little heavy handed in its surreal filming, but it's populated by a very human cast, that brings it all down to earth. Nice questions raised, which are never really fully answered, and gives you a nudge to sort it out for yourself. I think it asks a lot from the audience, which is why the low score on here. I never do much reviewing, but I thought I'd put this one up, because if you've not seen this you really should check it out.
moonlit-4 This is an indie sci-fi time travel / psychological thriller movie with an obviously low budget. The action scenes in particular could be more convincing but they contribute to the whole in a weird sort of way.As a nerd I happened to love this movie, especially the way it made me laugh at certain things and because I thought those were the things the director wanted me to laugh at! You may or may not catch some of the details that made me enjoy it more, but a mind for subtleties is surely required to appreciate the this work. Recommended especially for people that have, or like to think they have, a degree of OCD.
