Why can't more American films be like Asian ones? I'm a sucker for any time related films, and this one works quite well. I didn't expect it to go in the direction it did, but was satisfied overall.

The closest a movie has gotten to the first Butterfly Effect (the sequels didn't quite make it). Also feels the least South Korean of all the South Korean films I've seen, for what that may be worth. The acting seems fairly good, and the pacing is great. The logic (like the Butterfly Effect) doesn't quite add up, but it's fun if you don't over analyze it. The second ending after the credits start is a bizarre mood killer that would've been better as an alt ending on YouTube.

A bit convoluted and sometimes stretched, but I really don't mind a pulpy, well-acted, fun as hell time travel low fantasy horror flick so keen to pull twists and create such a frenzy, just plain weird and mutant atmosphere in a nearly shot-to-shot basis.

Interesting concept for a movie. Well acted, well written, sweet cinematography, banging tunes. There's obviously going to be inconsistencies when tackling this kind of topic but they do their best to make sense of everything. The "true ending" when the credits start redeem what seemed like it was the actual ending. Good stuff!

A totally absurd story filled with time paradoxes but still somehow enjoyable, more or less, which ends by setting up a sequel in such a way that everything that came before becomes almost completely incomprehensible (guess that was the idea). Didn't realise until the final credits that this is in fact a remake of a British/Puerto Rican film from 2011.

Enjoyable thriller, but to say that it doesn't stick the landing is something of an understatement. Some viewers might be able to justify the final twist through some convoluted extrapolation of the film's logic; as far as storytelling goes, it feels unearned and self-indulgent.
