OK, You have to see this movie! This one I had heard a lot about and finally got to see it this week. If you love time travel scenarios and theorizing what would happen if you went back in time and did this or did that, and whatnot, this is an incredible film to sink your minds into. The movie concerns an older couple living out in the woods. Nearby is a research facility where we do not know whats happening really. Not yet anyway. After doing some landscaping, The husband, Hector is enjoying his surrounds watching things through his binoculars when he sees a young woman disrobing. His wife leaves to run an errand and intrigued he walks into the woods only to find her knocked out, then he is stabbed in the arm by a man wearing a bloody bandage as a mask and a trench coat.
As he runs away he takes shelter in the research facility and a scientist tells him to hide in this giant liquid tub machine with a cover over it. He goes in and in a second he is transported back in time a few hours. The scientist tells him that there are now 2 of him. He then tries to go back and stop the killing but then realizes that through a series of crazy events the "killer" in the mask is actually someone he knows quite well... And the time loop keeps happening to a point where there are 3 versions of him walking around trying to figure it all out in this 2 hour time frame. You really have to pay attention but if you love that time shifting stuff this is a really fun movie to watch and re-watch. The performances are dead on, and the director, Nacho Vigalondo does a great job here on his first feature film. Look out for this guy, as he could be a director to watch. It's out on video now through Magnet Releasing. Netflix it now!!!
Here is a trailer:
