There are much better films...

Rating: Null/10 (2 August 2011)

There are much better films than this with a similar concept or just better writing. It's not that anything necessarily went wrong here... the concept is OK, the story is OK, the script is OK, the acting might be even better than OK. I guess that leaves the production and direction. And of course a majority of its reviewers disagree with me, so whatever. This just isn't a great movie. It certainly isn't worthy of it's rating and status here and a lot of other places. I think maybe it was over produced and designed. If it had been simplified into something more Donnie Darko and less Matrix, at least it would have been worthy of it's better than average performances.
