Review of Primer (2004) by Alexson P — 10 Sep 2011

I didn't understand ALOT of this movie. I got the fact that they were creating a time travel machine but every thing else was like...what?! For a film that is made on a budget of $17,000 it actually is pretty well made. The camera work was actually interesting.The problems where that it had actors who weren't even trained and therefore showed literally no charisma at all and all of their dialogue was some barely decipherable techno-drivel, and the film was humorless all throughout to the end. The movie ends off in a way that definitely demands you to watch it again but why would I? I know some people have been calling this "a masterpiece" and " the most headiest singular sci-fi movie since Kubrick made 2001" etc, but I rather settle for Back to the future If I wanna watch a movie about time traveling. Overall, What I am trying to say is that, it was pretty fuckin boring.

Rating: 6/10.
