it tried, yet failed

Rating: Null/10 (8 May 2001)

This movie tried really hard to have a tight plot and an unpredictable ending. It failed in both endeavors. Anybody who has read more than two science fiction books in his lifetime will see the ending coming in the first 10 minutes of the film. And the plot has the same obvious holes that so many time traveling movies have. That is to say, they have an unlimited amount of time to plan how to change past history, yet for some unexplicable reason they choose a particularly unfavorable scenario.
I tried really hard to suspend disbelief and be entertained, but the gaping holes in this film exceeded the limits of my credibility. And the meandering plot nearly put me to sleep.
