Truly Unique and an excellent movie

Rating: 10/10 (26 January 2004)

I have read a few negative reviews of The Butterfly Effect and I fail to see any faults in the movie itself. Maybe there are just a lot of anti-Ashton Kutcher fans out there and I really haven't up to this point liked any of his movies to date, and then along came The Butterfly Effect. If I could have given this movie an 11 out of 10 I would have because I truly believe that this is one of the better movies I have seen in a while and I would hold it in high regards along Memento as being two of the most original movies to come out as of late. The performances by the actors, both child and adult, were outstanding. Elden Henson and Amy Smart did a great job in their various roles and Ashton Kutcher proved he could be an actor outside of the comedy box. The movie had everything a thriller should have and unlike other thrillers in the past this one actually had me guessing until the very end. Great plot, excellent acting and overall a great movie.
