although the ideas and subject matter for this movie arent completely original, it was a very refreshing breath of life into the recent blunders of psychological thrillers ive seen of late. This movie got horrible reviews, but only because the critics werent competent enough to pay attention to the movie.

some scenes are hard to watch, but I appreciate it because its completely real. the contrast in light and dark areas in this film are great for viewing and transitions are great. the first few actually made me jump like hell even though they werent designed to do that.

Most importantly, this is a rare movie involving time travel that actually ties all loose ends! I guarantee that if you pay enough attention to this movie you wont leave the theater with one question unanswered.

My advice, fuck the critics and fuck LOTR part 3 or 4 or whatever is in now. See this movie ASAP, because it will probably be one of the best of 2004.
