The biggest surprise ... is how the story continues to unsettle after it ends.

Jesse Hassenger

AV Club

The three central actors lack warmth or even basic rapport from the start, which makes it difficult to trust their fuzzy interpretation of the time-travel rules-or, for that matter, their tolerance for each other.

Rated: C

Vague Visages

Although aided by some big ideas, Time Lapse collapses under the weight of its ambitious log line and crude script. While King’s film falters, it’s not the utter disaster it could have been, which is both a credit to the director, and a positive sign...

The Last Thing I See

a clever, low-budget genre flick with more ideas than money.

Assignment X

Even so, among the many inexpensive indies shot around Los Angeles, Time Lapse stands out. It makes the most of its assets and never appearing to need any more than it has to tell a reasonably engrossing tale of speculative film noir.

Rated: B

Skipping the Philosophy 101 lecture on determinism was an error. The result? Mutton dressed as lamb in movie form.

Totally decent plot (kind of reminds me of Deathtrap (1982), but the writing is atrocious. Still worth it.
