Thoughts
A fun little film this. It's a bit slow starting but I like that it doesn't over-explain anything to start with, you just go on the journey with these characters. It's also great to have a time travel movie that isn't really about time travel, it's there to serve as an opportunity for redemption, and a few fun jokes along the way... it's a fun take on the genre.
The trio/quartet of main characters have great chemistry together, and the twists and turns really took me by surprise. You were never quite sure what was going to happen and whether it was really true or not. The soundtrack was exceptional, nostalgic but not aged, and really fitting the action well. And there are deep cut references and areas where I need to do more homework, so plenty to revisit on future watches as well. Loved it.
Rating: 5 / 5
