Tirdad Derakhshani Philadelphia Inquirer Great fun will be had by audiences, past and future. Rated: 3/4 Feb 13, 2015 Full Review Jake Wilson Sydney Morning Herald Sullivan urgently needs to find a co-writer: while visually he's more talented than the majority of Australian directors, his would-be witty dialogue is atrocious, and his characters are no more than sketches. Rated: 2.5/5 Sep 22, 2014 Full Review David Stratton The Australian Full marks to Sullivan and his team for creating this bizarre puzzle of a movie, even though the use of the single location and the endlessly repetitive (with variations) plot inevitably becomes over-familiar as it proceeds. Rated: 3.5/5 Sep 22, 2014 Full Review Stephen A. Russell The New Daily (Australia) It's a head-scratcher, but one packed full of witty fun and electric chemistry. Rated: 4.5/5 Aug 26, 2020 Full Review Jennifer Heaton Alternative Lens A good example of how to make a high-concept film on a dirt-cheap budget. Rated: 7.5/10 Nov 2, 2018 Full Review Deirdre Crimmins Film Thrills One of the best time travel films I have ever seen. Aug 21, 2018 Full Review Read all reviews

Dominic B For a low budget sci-fi this really surprised me very clever, funny and cerebral and heartfelt too. Can see why the critics scored it so high might not be for everyone but it was definitely for me. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/09/23 Full Review Audience Member A deeply strange low budget time loop comedy drama which is clever in places but eventually becomes too tangled and messy to be anything more than a slog to get through. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Audience Member Inventive and fun play on the time travel concept. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member A clever (if incomprehensible) take on the genre can't overcome it's paper-thin and obnoxious characters; then again, of course only a completely self-involved yet fragile white man would actually invent a time travel machine. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/30/23 Full Review Audience Member Only missing out on the full 5 star because of the messy "love story" factor, this movie is proof that, done right, time travel is still worth exploring. Dimitriades is wonderfully cocky; McConville is delightfully adept at each version of Dean; and while Marshall could have been better served with a little more meat to her role, she does admirably with what she's given. A movie you won't soon forget, that stands up well under multiple viewings, and another shining example of what Australian Cinema has to offer. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/18/23 Full Review Audience Member Hugh Sullivan's misogynist time paradox escapade does nothing but reveal his inability to write a female character who is anything more than a willing pawn in men's contemptuous fantasies. Torturous and confused, it stops making sense almost immediately and degenerates into garbled versions of the same tedious scenario being played out by two characters who start out as boring caricatures and stay that way throughout this convoluted plot that goes nowhere. If only I could go back in time to warn myself to do something else. This is how not to write a time travel movie. Sullivan creates flat, unlikeable characters with no depth and his dialogue is so stultifying and lame it would illicit groans from the most comedically challenged. Strangely, it is not improved by having to hear it repeated over and over. Potentially could have worked as a fifteen minute short but as a full length feature this is an abject failure.
