What a weird film! My only semi-positive comment is half-kudos for not going for an obvious ending. Sort of.

My main reason for watching is that I’ve seen every other Philip K Dick adaptation, and besides – the idea of being able to see two minutes ahead of yourself is pretty cool. Alas, they do very very little with that ability: a couple of scenes of the two minutes ‘rewinding’ to give our ‘hero’ another go; probably the best effect, when he tries out all the possibilities; but mostly just “oh look – he knows exactly when to move to avoid blah blah” which isn’t exactly a visual effect, just choreography.

Mind you, the actual SFX really weren’t that great. Actors in a car with fake scenery outside? Oooh, yeah!

Mostly, the movie is just an action flick, with most of the attention fixed on a rather weak and unbelievable ‘love’ story thread. Yawn. Could have been so much more interesting.

I hated it. Fsck fsck fscking hated it.

Okay, so I enjoyed watching about 90% of the movie, and it did keep me on the edge of my seat throughout most of it…but the twist at the end? It made me literally shout, “What. The. HELL?!” I’m sorry, but I’m not fond of movies with such a crappy ending. bleh.

While this movie does have some plot holes that exist even in the I can see two minutes ahead time frame. Over all it was an enjoyable experience. It is by no means a must see movie, but an entertaining diversion that you could watch.
