A very intense and well done film
25 June 2006
This is one of the few movies I could watch over and over. I have seen it several times, and each time, I realized something new about the movie.

The question of the movie is simple. What if you could go back in time and try to fix something? There is an added twist to the main character's time travel, and I will leave it up to you to find out if you haven't seen the movie.

What makes the movie intense is that the main character's desire to save the one he loves, and also the problems he runs into as he tries to fix the problems in his past. The director's choice of a method of time travel is unique: The main character has an affliction that allows him to go back to a time in his past by reading things he wrote as a youth or by viewing pictures. And each time he tries to fix something in his past, something else goes wrong, and other things are changed unexpectedly. Not everything is quite right. There seems to be no good solution.

This movie is very well done and well structured. There are no low points in this movie - each scene has a point and ties directly into the main idea of the movie. This is one of those movies that will keep your full attention for the entire length. Ashton Kutcher, in his first serious role, plays surprisingly well in this movie. This is one of the truly great movies that has come out in recent years.
