"Just think of your mind as a movie, you can pause, rewind or slow down any details you want." - Dr. Redfield

Why watch this? This mind-trip film will have you second-guessing your life decisions.

Plot Summary: This story follows Evan Treborn, a young man who can travel back in time to inhabit his younger self during blackouts he experienced as a child. He attempts to alter these past events to improve his and his friends' lives, but each change creates unforeseen and often tragic consequences in the present. The film explores the profound impact of even small changes on a complex system, reflecting the concept of chaos theory known as the butterfly effect.

Dad's Preview: We all wish we could change some things in our past. I should never have picked on Shaun Reid. The mental hopscotch within this film, as Evan jumps back and forth into his life at different ages, is really suspenseful, and frankly stressful. I was surprised that Kutcher possessed this level of acting talent, but he killed the role.
