I was going to rate it 1 or 2 stars after watching the movie. Then I watched a 50-min explanation video on YouTube (and trust me, you're going to need an explanation for this movie) . I was amazed. There are various alternate timelines in this movie which makes it confusing . Moreover the director makes no attempt to segregate these timelines for the ease of the viewer. People say it is the most realistic time travel film and I agree. I mean if time travel really existed then it would probably exist like the way portrayed in the movie. However, if the director made the interpretation of this movie simpler by color-coding, or by mentioning the date each event took place then I would have rated it much higher. Don't get me wrong, I love movies which challenges the viewer's thinking ability, however in this case it is done to the extreme. I don't want all information to be spoon-fed to me but I also don't want it to be as confusing as this movie was.
