Time Crimes Reviews

[Highly rated reviewer]

Seconds Out, Round Three

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

Subtitles I should pay more attention

The film was OK but I hate to have to read a film it is better to have a book.

truecrimes

not really a film i go for this don't like subtitles very low budget with not very much going on don't rate this film at all

Promised a lot and nearly delivered it

Time travel thread loops intriguingly, but ultimately becomes a 'birds nest' which you can't be bothered to unravel.

Similar in some ways to Primer.

utter rubbish

yet again more sub titled crap,it was back in the post box 15 mins after it came through the door,anymore of this crap and im out of this set up,watch it at you peril

Horrible horrible horrible

Uses slasher horror cliche to scare. Painfully misogynistic film (which is confirmed by the ending) Don't bother - shame as the premise is inspired and it could have been great.

Rubbish

Best just not to waste your time.

what a shame

to make any kind of sense with time travel something has to happen FOR THE FIRST TIME,you know, the original sin.

but with this story all that was happening was happening BECAUSE the very boring middle aged man had ALREADY gone back in time, but he ONLY gone back in time because he had ALREADY forced himself to go back in time...um....yes that's right.

when you write/film a story about time travel you really have to be very very careful to make sure it makes some sort of sense or it will bother the reader/watcher on some level throughout.... and sad to say it did

Edge of seat stuff that gets you thinking !

Thoroughly enjoyed this film and it kept me thinking all the next day.

I'm glad I did not watch the trailer first because it contains a spoiler !
