Couldn't think of a title^ anyways, don't be a hater and try to point out the plot holes in this movie and take it as it is. This movie has a sick idea and creates a emotional and thrilling story inside of it. I don't really like the name Evan, and was kind of mad i found myself rooting for a guy named Evan, but that just shows how good Ashton Kutcher is in this movie. I'm a die hard Charlie Sheen fan and was not a fan of Ashton Kutch in Two and a Half Men, but he is really good in this. CONCLUSION- If you are looking for an good movie that you will be surprised and intrigued by, watch this. PS The directors ending/cut is the way to go.

This film seems to have been a clear influence on an amazing video game called Life Is Strange. If you have played that you will know what to expect. The themes are at times a lot darker than I would have expected. There are lots of different sections and some work better than others, but, on the whole this is a great movie. It is a cool concept and emotionally it leaves quite an impact.

I thinks that this is a good sci-fi movie.It's got great cast,decent acting,incredible story. But like every other movies, it has problems and i'm going get into it. 1)The kids did their best to act but i just cringe every time that little kid who's play Tommy tried to act.I mean he did his best,he tried but it's not enough. Same with little Evan,oh my god. 2)Doesn't make that much sense. In one scene, Evan was in a jail cell with this religious guy. Evan came back in time, fake getting nailed in the hand like Jesus. And then come back and convince the guy to help him and the guy believed that. WHAT? If you do that, It's going to create an alternate time-line where he got nailed in the end and everybody knows he got nailedOverall great, I'm just nitpicking it's actually didn't bother me that much so yeah check it out

I really would have given this movie 10/10 but for it's terrible execution I gave it 5/10.The Concept of this movie is really great and how well the story moves around it is also intriguing to watch. There's always a but and here is the poor performances and execution. See I want to say simply if this movie was any better it could have been hailed as a Classic. I was really interested to see what happens next and when it happened I was even more anxious but all those very poor performances and average direction , below average script , really bad characters and by bad i mean they didn't even seem like humans and so much terrible execution makes this really bad.I have used execution so many times because it could have been much greater.To even make it more worse they made few even worse sequels to this crappy faulted movie. One thing to watch this movie for , for its amazing thrill of its concept and the way it controls the story. One Reason to avoid this movie, for its elements of the story , script , characters and performances which butchers its concept very badly. Even though it has four endings the Director's Cut is the best among them as it sticks to the story very well. Now Final Word if you can watch mix-up of brilliant concept being butchered the it's for you.If you can't then please don't watch it , as you will waste your time.
