Grounds and Tingley in particular keep their performances just on the biting point between broadly comic and genuinely vulnerable, making for a viewing experience that is altogether more enjoyable than a bare-bones plot description suggests.

Oh no. Another dreadful Australian film...Clumsy and dull, the film’s chief purpose, apparently, is to see how much cussing it can cram into all the witless dialogue. Terrible.

Nobody's Reading This But Me

Desperation and drugs make haunted bedfellows in a trailblazing, time-warping debut from writer-director Sam Odlum.

With a hint of Hugh Sullivan’s similarly wickedly fun misadventure The Infinite Man, Time Addicts revels in its paradoxical conundrums.

… might not be the Housos vs Back to the Future mashup you were hoping it was going to be, but it does offer up an alternative and interesting take on sci fi tropes.

Movie Squad (RTRFM 92.1)

Spectacular-looking and often compelling twist on the timeloop genre. It may also be making a run on the most c-bombs in a film, ever.

Rated: 3.5/5

Stereotyped 'low life' Australian chracters lacking any sortoff nuance and extremely un-likeable. Claustrophobic boring setting in one house. Not sure why it has such high reviews. Trying to be edgy but the terrible dialogue and overacting destroyed most potential moments of humour.Has some nice visuals and auditory moments, but overall a total waste of time. Yet another terrible Australian film to add to the never-ending pile of terrible Australian films that have been made in recent times.

Deeply silly, very confusing but also a lot of fun. Particularly if you've ever come into contact with Australian drug culture.

It's not what I expected but it's a good watch. I don't know what I expected but I was wrong. Sort of a combination between Resolution(2012) and John dies at the end(2012). Some of the twists kind of trip over themselves but overall I recommend if you like odd movies.

Rated 3 out of 5 stars

The movie is a great Australian romp exploring bootstrap paradoxes die to time travel. I really enjoyed it and had a bunch of laughs, it's a lot deeper than it appears to be at first. If you like time travel at all I highly recommend this one.
