I love time travel themed movies, but I sadly could not get past the acting in this movie. I really wanted to like it because the premise is interesting. But every time Jasper opened his mouth and spoke, I drifted further and further away from this movie.

I think this is an amazing film, even more so given that it's an independent low budget film. The story and acting were just superb. Truly a great piece of sci-fi that seems to already be a bit of a cult hit on streaming.My only problem is this plot hole: Remember Ivan had broken their old fashioned clock and they had to replace it with a digital one? The old photo of Jasper/Callie coupling while Finn was asleep took place weeks ago so it should have the old clock in the photo. You'd think Jasper and Finn would notice that upon first seeing it and know it could not be a photo of the next day's events.

It's the small budget and the nearly unknown cast that makes Time Lapse a movie that puts other, far too expensive movies to shame. Less is more fits perfectly when it comes to time paradox and this movie did it beautifully.A photo machine that takes pictures of the future, three friends with different aspirations, a movie with a lot of twists that will have you watch it over and over and over again. Don't watch the trailer because like always, the trailer spoils more it should.

Time Lapse is one of those movies that rely on several contrivances to have much of a plot. Right away one is left wondering why the trio didn't merely buy a lottery ticket instead of betting on greyhound races, much less bet them thru a bookie. I didn't need the pictures the machine popped out to know what was going to happen next. Still, it was fairly entertaining right up until the very end, when in it totally goes off the rails and stops making sense. Instead of getting pictures of tomorrow's events, which had been the premise of the movie, suddenly Callie is leaving herself "camera notes" to carry out tomorrow events that have already occurred in the present. By that point though I was ready for the ending. The main trio of actors did do a fine job with their characters, especially Danielle Pannabaker. Too bad the writer couldn't have come up with a better ending.
