A pleasant surprise

Rating: 10/10 (22 January 2005)

An unexpectedly great movie. I really had no idea what this was going to be about. We stayed intrigued about what might happen with every flashback. It just goes to show that the "Butterfly Effect" could indeed exist. We love movies with unexpected plot twists like this (Vanilla Sky, Wild Things, The Game) and this movie was no disappointment. Those who criticize the inconsistencies in time travel and holes in the plot need to remember this IS a movie! Entertainment, not science. We saw the theatrical cut and after reading the spoilers about the director's cut, we don't even want to watch it. A must rent for a night at home.
