A boring and unsuccessful attempt at a time travel flick. I scrolled through RT looking at all of the positive reviews expecting a great movie. Instead, I found a low-budget movie with poor dialogue running the entire time.

There were no high-points. No climaxes. Just chit-chat, a few uninteresting discoveries, and a storyline I felt like I had heard a million times before. I'm sorry to have to say this, but Primer, in my opinion of course, simply was not a good movie.

Primer is a dragging film attempting something big, but winding up in the aging pile of other mediocre sci-fi flicks to have been released in the past decade. It's actually a shame, because anything regarding time travel could have been good.

But for now, I'd say let's stick to something great like Inception.
