A diamond in the rough

Rating: 8/10 (13 January 2014)

I have to say when you stumble across a film by accident it's nice to be captivated by the concept and originality of the film. I tend to enjoy the more obscure, less obvious titles where there is less pressure on meeting certain criteria like profits and mass audience appeal which many big blockbuster films have suffered over the years.
I always love anything to do with sci-fi and time traveling is right up my street. The film didn't disappoint with Ashton Kutcher delivering his best performance yet, a surprise I have to say but credit where credits due. The film most of the time follows its rules fairly well with some inconsistency but that doesn't bother me too much.
I would of liked to see Evans changes have a wider reverberations but a minor issue but which isn't is the unnecessary violence through some scenes with Evan and Tommy. Overall a brilliant surprise which makes you think well after the films over.
