Chain Reaction

Rating: 7/10 (19 November 2004)

OK, I liked the movie--it was a good piece of science fiction. But I have a slight problem with the premise. The movie only shows how the various changes effect the lives of a small group of people. But, if such changes were possible, wouldn't Chaos Theory dictate that there could be some drastic changes to everyone and everything. Isn't that the whole idea of Chaos theory? The theory that one very small change (a butterfly flapping its wings) could make a huge impact (the typhoon half way around the world) in things seemingly unrelated.
What do you think? Am I way off base here?
For the record, I give it a 7/10.
