    A very strong storyline with twist and turns to keep the excitement up and overall a great Thriller that I really enjoyed more the second time 'round.

    One of my least favourites. Can't decide whether it wants to be genuinely disturbing and thought provoking or simply straight up action, with the end result being a mess.

    despite its plot holes, and a weird feelling that sometimes you seem to be watching a teen soap opera, sure this film is quite a little surprise.

    One of my favorite movies for several reasons. I'm usually not an Ashton fan but here he brings a new Ashton to the table. I just love the idea of if you change one tiny thing it can alter your world. I think that the fact that they go back and in detail show you the changes truly makes it innovative and original. Cudos for this film.

    Ashton Kutcher is amazing in this film.Never realised what a good actor he is.This film kept me entertained all the way through.And what an emotional sad ending.

    THIS IS ONE OF THE GREATEST FILMS I'VE EVER SEEN. I HONESTLY WAS TAKEN BACK BY ASTON KUTCHER'S PERFORMANCE.AT FIRST I WAS A BIT SKEPTICAL. I DIDN'T THINK KUTCHER COULD DO SUCH A GREAT JOB. HE IS ALWAYS PLAYING STUPID ROLES, BUT THAT ALL CHANGED WHEN I SAW THIS. HE SUCKS YOU RIGHT INTO HIS CHARACTER. THEIRS NOT A DULL MOMENT. A MOST SEE!!

    This is one of the best movies that you'll ever see, sure i don't think what this kid goes through is common but it's possible.I know there is two endings, one is where he ends up having to get kaliegh to move in with her mom by telling her he hates her...the other is where he strangles him self with the embelical cord in his moms stomach.I find the first one more sad.Anyway see this movie it is so good!!!!!!!!!!!! P.s c it twice it'll make more sense!!:)

    I'm fond of this film. It's wonderful and makes other people to think.... The ends.. I saw the both, the first was on the Russian variant, it was happy but melancholy... The second was in English.. oh.. it was so sad((( But it's a great idea to creat 2 ends)

    Much better than I expected. Like a serious version of Back To The Future... and just as good!! Extremely thought-provoking, but the one thing I can't work out is the prison scene when he goes back and impales his hands to 'prove' to his inmate that he can travel through time - a plothole?!?
