Andy B A very short time-loop film that somehow still struggles to fill it's run time. An interesting first half with a decent concept and sparky dialogue gives way to a labored and contrived second where the script doesn't seem to know where to go next. A half-hearted stab at horror, a nonsense macguffin and some vague allusions to compromise, acceptance and teamwork give way to an ending which negates the whole thing. It's watchable but could have been a whole lot better. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 04/03/23 Full Review Read all reviews
