Primer.

Hands down the biggest head fuck of a movie of all time. Any movie that you have to watch and then read the plethora of explanatory websites afterwards is a hit with me.



Its a good one.  Los cronocrímenes (Timecrimes) and the more recent Triangle are similar, if not quite as good.

A Sound of Thunder.



You can't surpass a film that opens with the line:

        "2055 – New technology was invented that could change the world…or destroy it.

        A man named Charles Hatton used it to make money."

The reason I liked Primer so much was that it made the totally impossible seem so believable. It's run time is only 77 mins - So I watched it through whilst away with work, thought "I don't have a clue what that was all about!" read all the explanation websites/diagrams and couldn't wait to watch it again - to 'test drive' my new found knowledge if you will.

I've watched it a few times since and I still catch myself pondering over it to this day. It's certainly not for everyone, the reviews are deffo mixed, lots loved it, lots hated it.

After reading the write-ups on TimeCrimes though I think i'll be getting that soon!

Having sat through all of that, I feel you owe me an apology! Biggest turd of a film I've ever seen (nearly - still better than Mr Woodcock).
