    Not very memorable. It seems well directed and even well acted, but the story and its twists aren't convincing; the differentiation simply isn't there. It's as if the plot twists don't exist, as if we already know in advance what's going to happen and hope not, that the plot will deliver a twist that simply doesn't deliver. A separate point for the endings of certain characters, which end up being very ridiculous and hardly believable. I don't know why this film has such a strong following on Letterboxd, but, well, life's mysteries.

    Lots of action and thriller, along with confusion and enigma. The film meets the logical requirements that these types of stories demand, but at the same time leaves a little more to be desired when it comes to explaining some significant events that generate paradoxes due to the very nature of time travel. However, with solid direction, an interesting environment to watch and good performances, good results are achieved.

    It is a strange film to understand based on the reasons for the events, even until its end. There is not much context and some confrontations are illogical in relation to strength/ability. But the end is disturbing, to live a life is to make it aware of what we do and want, everything else is control. I'll stick with that.

    It was funny and curious for me to see all those renowned actors campaigning for Andrea. I think it's a performance that mixes technique but also a bit of liberties that she was able to take as an actress. Andrea achieves drunk scenes that contain a lot of truth, as she uses that state of intoxication to show deficiencies, doubts and flashes of her character, scenes not often seen on the small or big screen. As for the film, I saw it correct, a bit distorted at the end due to the slightly chiche relationship of its two protagonists, but it's worth watching.
