Primer is not one of those movies you can just sit back and observe. If you are looking for something different that will make you think then give Primer a try. Primer was made on a really small budget but its great storytelling is what makes the movie. Primer is like a puzzle and re-watching it to try to solve it is what makes it interesting. I can't say I know of another movie quite like this one.

Primer really makes you think. Everything in this does make sense but whether or not you will understand it is another question. I love watching this over and over again because I seem to catch something new each time I see it.

They did a lot with such a small budget but there are still some things you can see room for improvement. The sound quality in some of the dialogue could be improved. There are certain scenes where the dialogue is completely unintelligible. There are also a couple camera shots that could have been better.
