Repeat (2021)
7/10
Made my brain hurt

I really enjoyed much of this as it's very interesting & very unusual, but I'd be a liar if I said I understood all of it. I believe I understood most of it, but there are just some things here that don't make sense. At least to me. The preface of this is a scientist who has invented a machine that he believes can communicate with the deceased. You are on your own after that. Since his young daughter has previously gone missing and apparently is presumed dead, though no timeline is provided, he has a personal interest in this as well. This is a combo of sci-fi and mystery and it is a gripping watch, but again, if you are looking for total logic you may not find it anymore than I could. Oddly, this is accidentally the second film I have seen starring Tom England and I say odd because they are the only two films, one five years ago and this three years ago, he has acted in, both very low budget indies and he has been very good in both. The other is Cosmos and it too is very interesting. He appears to be mostly a British theater actor. This is an intelligent film about a man increasingly obsessed with his invention as he expands its capabilities. I just wish it all added up, though the ending is intriguing enough that you might immediately want to start it again.
