Reception

The movie received negative reviews. On review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes, the film holds a 0% rating score on five critical reviews.[1] Joe Leydon of Variety described it as an "Ungainly mix of gritty street-life drama, perky teen romance and seriocomic sci-fi time-tripping never jells."[1]

gollark: You can use informational time travel plus the fixed-timeline thing for hypercomputing, which is neat.

gollark: What I think a lot of settings do is have it so that you can transmit information to the past, but you can't edit history at all - what happened to cause the information to be sent, still happens. It's very confusing and can also be used for computation.

gollark: Er, future→past, I mean.

gollark: Any reliable past/future information channel would be data-mined to death, I think.

gollark: I mean, yes, FTL is equivalent to time travel, but I didn't mention that.
