Not as original as it claims (and not as smart as it thinks it is)

Rating: 7/10 (14 October 2012)

As my summary suggests, this film thinks it is smarter than it is. There are obvious parallels with every time travel film out there. I could probably reference every blockbuster film from Timecop to Sixth Sense and draw up similarities. This film is nothing new (so stop believing the hype).
Like anything 'Hollywood' of *course* the plot is complete rubbish - so to flame this movie based on that, you'd have to state that you expect it to have scientific grounding - which is madness. Just sit down, and watch it for entertainment value alone.
But there is the problem. The ending (which I won't spoil) was inevitable. The 'laws of cliché' had already written how everything was due to end. There are no 'movie moments' that I personally took from this film, and at the end of a two hour buttock flattening I could only sum up in one word: "Meh".
Considering the work that clearly went in to the movie, I genuinely feel guilty about that! 6.7/10
