    My wife and I were both bored. We did not get it. I guess it is a director movie where he "gets it" and hopes the audience can figure it out. Great sound, great popcorn, but boring movie. I would recommend you skip it.

    I feel the film beautifully showed the fragility of communication; when what is said and how we choose to interpret may have an effect. It's welcome message told within a great movie, wonderfully acted. A really must see...for everyone.

    This was NOT what I was expecting. It is an art movie. An art, romantic science fiction movie. It was slow and pretentious. It felt a lot longer than it was. If you are looking for a sci-fi alien movie, this isnt it.... Did I mention it was slow and pretentious?

    The tried too hard to make a movie about foretelling the future by going in a circle It did have some points but could not pull it all together at the end due to the fact that there is too much jumping from beginning end middle middle end beginning In the end it distorted the entire plot and story line

    Really liked the movie. Bit of a snoozer at parts but the twist shocking. Think I have to see it again so all the pieces fit together.

    The movie definitely doesn't rate 4 stars and I'm being generous at 3. Good actors, confusing plot (goes back into her past, then jumps forward, then back again)! Definitely disappointing.

    Boring, vague plot with no real outcome for humanity, Very disappointing although most of Tarantino's movies are strange and appear to be the product of someone on drugs.
