Claudio C Things Will Be Different (2024) Awful, Boring and Flawed Story (11,784 – 24 Jun 2025 – by Claudio Carvalho) After a heist, the siblings Joseph “Joe” (Adam David Thompson) and Sidney “Sid” (Riley Dandy) meet each other at a restaurant of a small town. They have not seen each other for a long time and Sid misses her daughter Steph. They flee to a farmhouse that Joe knows to hide in a different timeline for two weeks. Joe follows the instructions of a notebook, and they go inside a closet with two bags of money. When they leave the spot, they are alone at the farmhouse in a different time. After fourteen days, when they are ready to return to the present, they find the cabinet locked and barricaded with a piece of wood. When Joe goes to a nearby mill, he finds a note craved on the wood saying that they are stranded in that timeline and need to accomplish new orders to return home. Joe is forced to accept the deal and a safe with a tape recorder appears in front of him. He talks to a stranger that tells him that the only way they can return home is killing a mysterious visitor that will appear in the farmhouse. Without option, they wait for the visitor for one year. Until the day the visitor appears. “Things Will Be Different” (2024) is a sci-fi film that raises great expectations in the viewer, with an intriguing premise. Unfortunately, the awful, boring and flawed story destroys the good intentions. The hysterical Sidney is an obnoxious character, taking the wrong decisions along the plot. The pace is too slow and does not help to enjoy the story. Let’s forget the unexplained time travel machine, but why Steph tries to kill her mother? It seems to be a complete incoherence. And how would she kill the stranger, who is the responsible of the destruction of her family, traveling to a different timeline. How can Joe coexist with himself? In the end, watching this film with this messy story is a complete waste of time. My vote is three. Title (Brazil): “As Coisas Serão Diferentes” (“The Things Will Be Different”) My Blog: https://maniacosporfilme.wordpress.com/ Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 06/24/25 Full Review BOB T this movie lacks everything, talent, writing, originality you name it. what a total waste of time. who writes this garbage, better yet who's funding this? more than likely its a tax write-off for someone and we have to suffer for it. Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 05/17/25 Full Review Tobias K A rather intimate sci-fi story with two capable leads, limited but effective score and astonishingly well done photography. To not answer every open question should not be a flaw, but the way the action sometimes grinds to a halt, makes the plot holes painfully obvious. In the end, all the interesting ingredients cannot completely save the film from its mediocre execution. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 05/11/25 Full Review Thomas W Dull boring, stupid garabage Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 04/13/25 Full Review All Things F Interesting premise. But, like a lot of good ideas that aren't fleshed out, it turns into a mess of unexplained inconsistencies and giant plot holes. At one point she says she doesn't want her daughter to grow up without her. Yet, she's traveled through time and now assumes she's getting back when it's made clear that going back in time is not as easy as it seems. This is the sort of story that belongs in an episodic series that allows a building of the backstory that cannot be fixed with a couple expositional conversations between the two protagonists. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/28/25 Full Review Jeffrey P Lacks depth and any good explaination or resolution.
