Timecrimes

This is the best time paradox movie I have ever seen. Although it is in non-English language, yet it is very easy to understand it with english subtitles if you are you are an English language viewer. The movie explains the whole plot so beautifully, that it makes you enthralled through out the ending. A must watch for everyone. I repeat !! , a must watch for everyone !!

WTF?!

Fantastic movie! Even watching the last few minutes, one could come up with sooooo many endings. Very cool. Do yourself a favor and watch this film.

muy bien

very good time travell movie :-) Me Gusta

I liked how it starts and then quite fast you are caught up in that paradox along the main character (Hector). Just when I thought I knew what would happen and how it would end, it was only half of the movie. Then it hooks you again into the paradox. So cool. I also like how simple the character is. He is just an old man living his life, but got into something quite complex and that turned the way things went. It's a messy chain of events that connects one into the other. The ending was okay too, not the best thing but also not lame. I had low expectations for this movie, and as it performed better than I expected, it has my 8/10. It worth the watch.

Very enjoyable. Easy and solves the puzzle very well.

It was well scripted and one of the best paradox movies I ever seen.

I guess the people behind this movie really liked the final act of the third Harry Potter film.
This film is really stylistic, twisted and fun in a dark way.
You have to puzzle together how everything happened.
I could’ve used a lot more character development though, because you don’t care about any of the people in it, and the lead is kind of an asshole.
Also, [spoiler] they do kinda cheat by suggesting that you shouldn’t try to alter the past, which is supposed to raise the stakes, but nothing in this film even suggests that that’s possible.
The whole film takes the ‘everything is pre-determined, you have no free will’ approach to time travel, so you can’t change the past, even if you wanted to. [/spoiler]

6.5/10

This is really entertaining until you realize that the cleverness of showing the same events, but from different angles, really isn't all that clever. Yes, the way Hector begins subconsciously creating what he's seen before and then purposely starts setting things up is interesting, but eventually the "Ah-Ha! I remember that!" novelty wears thin.

The plight of the characters is not interesting because we learn absolutely nothing about them. That's an okay thing if the story means to concentrate on the science, the time-travel device, the guy running the time-travel machine, but this isn't covered, either. Instead there's only the same scenes reconstructed two or three times. Worse yet, it happens to people you don't know a thing about. It's ultimately uninteresting.

What makes the movie worth watching is the unwrapping of (or wrapping of) the man in the bandages. The ending is also a nice moment and it does keep you wondering how it's going to end.

This was a similarly frustrating watch for many of the same reasons as 2009's much raved about "Triangle" was.
