    The narrative falls apart a bit at the end, but otherwise this is essential outsider filmmaking.

    I was astonished that a film with subject matter this esoteric could be so compelling. They’re trying to secure venture capital funding for their mold growth machine? Doesn’t matter. The film trusts you enough to know there are stakes and time travel is involved.

    More to chew on than most super hero movies, but I have no idea why this movie feels the need to constantly remind me of the better movies it’s based on.
