Wow!

Rating: 7/10 (5 February 2006)

I was home on Sunday afternoon with nothing to do...happened upon this movie by chance, decided to watch. Aston Kutcher has never been on my A list for TV or Movies, but this movie showed me he can act! The topic of time travel always interests me and this was a unique approach to the topic. As time travel movies always seem to prove the basic rule is that you can't change the past without significantly influencing the future. It's refreshing to see that this movie doesn't give it a "Back to The Future" or a "Dr. Who" treatment ('in the end it all turns out good' and that you can change the future without ill consequences).
This movie also has a jarring dimension in that you're never quite sure Kutcher is time traveling or if he's just mentally ill--in fact toward the end of the movie, I thought that was going to be the result, that he was simply crazy all the time. For some reason the book "I Never Promised You A Rose Garden" kept coming to mind as I watched this movie.
This is a good movie to watch if you want some emotions stirred in you and if you like a plot that twists and turns all the way through...
