Primer is an amazingly confusing movie. Having watched it only once and tried to understand exactly what happened in the final half of the movie from the Wikipedia page, I can't say for sure I know what really went on.

Needless to say it seems that time travel is a messy thing and should probably be avoided, especially when you're leaving copies of yourself running around. Although it starts a little slow on the crazy time-traveling action, Primer will have you completely confused by time the end credits role and you won't even be certain about what character you're watching.

Definitely a worthwhile for any science-fiction fan or fan of impossibly-confusing movies.
