What It Is: syn·chro·nic·i·ty; the simultaneous occurrence of events that appear significantly related but have no discernible causal connection. When physicist Jim (McKnight) invents a the machine that can bend time he finds a mysterious flower. One whose match lay in the past. It is a race against time that has already occurred. He must stop a mysterious girl named Abby (Davis) from stealing his idea. One that could prove to be catastrophic if it had fallen into the wrong hands.

What We Think: Sorry I just woke up from this bore fest and I’m really trying to stay awake for it. There are a glaring and very distinct hole in the argument for this movie. Nothing, and I mean nothing in this film is original at all. From it’s recycled plot to it’s unsatisfactory treatment of the material. Everything about this is just rehashing ideas from other much better film. Much like the song Mambo #5 this song is a little bit of Machina in its life, a little bit of Primer by its side. All jokes aside this is not a good movie.

Our Grade: D, Nothing exciting. Terrible performances, hammy acting. All of it coalesces into a massive mess of nonsensical sci-fi mumbo jumbo. These are the types of films that people look at and say “sci-fi is just weird, messy soup of terrible. There are bound to be people who enjoy this particular film. I am not one of them and I am not going to send you out to spend money on it. There’s a lot of Uncanny in this film and if you click that link you’ll see that that is truly not a good thing. Go right ahead and skip it.
