If you like seeing people make stupid decisions, this is the movie for you.

On the first page of the IMDb reviews, people are showering it with praise with bullshit such as it being "intelligent, smart and coherent" which makes me wonder if they even know what these terms mean.

First of all directing your "future" self to do things so that a camera today can reap the fruits of your label seems a bit too paradoxical, but okay fine, I will accept it, I'm open-minded enough.

But then everything just goes from retarded to worse. Why would you need a crooked bookmaker to place your bets to begin with? It's not like that would be the only way to make tons of money.

How can the painter not have inspiration, but his future self does? It makes no sense, but whatever, I'll again open my mind and accept it.

And after what's-his-name kills the bookmaker and his goon, that girl acts completely ridiculous towards her boyfriend, I really despise lack of logic or just general stupidity.

Then in the end "what's-his-name" learned from "what's-her-name" that altering the time-line doesn't incur death. You think? Really? Like maybe use the frigging internet to look up theories on alternate or parallel time-lines before you start acting like a retard and lock your supposed friend up in the basement.

Supposed friend breaks free and manages to bluff "what's-his-name" into handing over his gun to the girl. Later on he manages to turn the tables around again and hits the gun out of his hands and never bothers to look behind him that hey maybe the girl heard their struggle and might be looking for a way to take matters into her own hand.

And that right there was the point I just thought, quit it, this movie strives on stupidity. I should have turned it off earlier, but hey I had nothing else to do.

I don't care for the low budget concept. The only thing low budget is the lacking amount of logic in this movie. Ugh.
