GREAT movie. It's kinda heady (Sweeny Don't even bother with this flick) so probably will get bad reviews from the Outpost.

When the credits started to roll at the end, I was disappointed. Then after mulling on it, it got to me... what a wonderful movie.

EDIT : My bad http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1549572/

yeah you missed it. I did too, until I started thinking about it. That's why I said it was pretty heady.

What's going to suck for the guy is when he gets over there to see his family only to find out the another him is still there. cry

I wonder if that will cause a universe ending paradox? skull

On a more serious note, the film pretty much sucks. It's the dream sequence of people who wish they could go back in time and correct a mistake instead of growing a set, taking the hurt, and learning from the mistake. It's always better in everyway to grow and move on, not pine for something that didn't happen.

I have this in my queue. I was unsure about it. I am glad to hear that you think it was a good movie. I'll keep it in my queue. Thanks.

"an ambitious young student and an accomplished composer cross paths"

Why would I be interested in that?

I'll admit it may fall under the category as a "chick flick", but it is still a wonderfully produced movie with a literally thoughtful ending.
