Adilah Hamid Here's a movie in which you wouldn't be able to stop talking about it. It's a big questions mark. And it begs the questions "Which comes first? The chicken or the egg?"
tchoumpileva Everything about this movie, every second of it, is perfection and pure pleasure. If only I could go back in time to watch this movie again for a first time...
Christopher Reid I was so confused with the first half of this movie. I thought it was meant to be a sci-fi time travel thriller. But we get this biographical story for a large part of the running time. It's engaging, but makes you wonder - where is all this leading? What is this movie even about? Is this the right disc I inserted?Ultimately, I don't think it has any one clear message or point. But it's thought-provoking. It asks a lot of interesting "what if" questions. There are plenty of surprises and twists. It raises moral questions about the costs when trying to save lives. And about doing things which cause pain but knowing that you have to do them anyway. One underlying thread is the eternal question of the chicken and the egg and of male vs. female.The movie doesn't really make sense when deeply scrutinised. But it doesn't have to. The plot holds together, but it's unrealistic. But that's okay. It's abstract. It's about pondering these made-up ideas. It takes hypothetical time travel scenarios to their logical extreme. It could've been more concrete and had more of a connection to some kind of purposeful series of events, but it's works for what it is.The acting and directing are good. I like the tone overall. It's an easy movie to relax into, not trying too hard to entertain or preach or blow you away. It just takes you in with a fascinating story which raises a lot of questions. I can't remember the music, meaning it probably did its job without being either terrible or great.So I recommend this movie to people who like intricate stories with well-developed characters. However, it doesn't really lead anywhere profound. It's more about the journey itself and some general themes about existence, choice and identity. It's more of an interesting dream than a realistic story which can be taken seriously. And it's flawed and maybe even a little self-indulgent. But at least it's pretty unique and well made.
