				"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.
