Seconds Out, Round Three
By Bribaba (146 reviews) from London , 08 May 2009[Highly rated reviewer]
Spanish, low budget and cerebral attempt to explore the anomalies inherent in time travel.No trying to explain iPods to Vikings here.
A middle aged man sunbathing in his garden, unleashes a disastrous chain of events as he makes an unwitting journey to one hour previous. His attempts to undo the recent past form the basis of an increasingly compelling and mind boggling narrative, The cheapskate production.fades to black as events unravel. If this had been made in the 50s in b&w it would be an established cult classic. And rightly so- Was this review helpful to you?

(155)Subtitled ???
By Robroy7 (7 reviews) , 18 May 2013Didn't even start watching, soon as I saw the SUBTITLES I turned it off. I find they are the biggest film spoiler as to much time is spent reading rather than taking in the visuals.- Was this review helpful to you?

Worst film I have ever seen.
By a customer , 14 Apr 2013Worst film I have ever seen. Pointless. Predictable. Painfully, eye-rollingly sexist. Do not bother. If you want breasts, watch porn. This film has nothing else to offer.- Was this review helpful to you?

Hollywood Don't Make Them Like This
By MrLumpy (13 reviews) from Exeter , 14 Apr 2013Brilliant low-budget Spanish timetravel-conundrum thriller. No SFX or enormous alien sets, just 3 basic sets with a great central idea. A great performance from Elejalde, and workmanlike direction from Vigalondo. It is the story and the development of the central character that makes the movie work. Riveting.- Was this review helpful to you?

nice film, shame about the remake
By Vespa177 (1 review) , 04 Apr 2013Excellent Spanish Indie Sci Fi, proving low budget doesn't have to low expectations. The (small) cast do a fantastic job of keeping the tension high as Hector has a seriously bad Groundhog Day. One which simply can't have a happy ending. Sadly word has it that Hollywood have got their claws into a remake - my advice, stick with this one folks. Holywood just won't make it as gritty and dare I say it, believable as the original- Was this review helpful to you?
