too awful to watch twice

Rating: 1/10 (4 January 2006)

Caution: Genetic malfunctions ahead. Man, what a downer... with lame predictable plot twists. Weird doesn't make it good or creative. This movie has more anguish than anything I've ever seen, and poor Ashton Kutcher, usually so charming, always seems to have a runny nose. Why does all this weird stuff have to be genetic? Because some lame writer thought it might be impressive, and add a little high tech organic science to a hokey time traveling movie, without building a futuristic rocket. LOL! Go ahead and watch it just to satisfy your curiosity, but beware the sense of lost time you'll feel afterward. If you bought the DVD, take it back to the store and demand a refund or exchange. About the other actors: Nobody performed memorably well (now that's a pun). Anybody can play an alcoholic pedophile (a clinking glass and a videocamera are the best props), a worried mother (tight pony tail, gaunt), a kindly doctor (he's soooo nice), a bitter slut (scars), a troubled teen (hurts things)...they're all stereotypes!! GEEZ.
