|
|
This was one if the films that I hired out on the weekend! And it truly blew me away! It is the first film for a long time that had me sat there for about 10 minutes after the film had finshed saying 'wow' to the telly. It was released in 2004 and I am very surprised that I had not seen it before.
The story line is based on the chaos theory which states that “the breeze generated by a butterfly wing can trigger a cyclone halfway around the world.
Evan Treborn has suffered from blackouts and memory lapses throughout his painful childhood and was advised to keep a journal of his life to help remember the tragic events like the burning of his dog, watching a woman and her baby being blown up by dynamite, and being part of a kiddie porn project filmed by his friend’s father.
Now in college, a much older Evan played by Ashton Kutcher has overcome his past. One day, however, he begins to read through his journals and discovers that not only can he now understand each traumatizing event more clearly, but he can also go back to that memory and change it, therefore affecting the entire future. Evan jumps from memory to memory trying to perfect a future where both he and his friends are happy, but instead he only manages to make things worse for the people he cares about.
It is an amazing story line and takes a while to truely understand what is going on! But once you have your head around its an amazing film. If you have not seen this film yet I very highly recomend it!
