Navin Dev wrote and directed the movie and got it started with his own money as well. Betchaareoffendedeasily provides a great review, but I feel compelled to add a few more points. People that get addicted to a drug that takes away all the bad memories in effect lock themselves away in a prison of their own making. I took the time to watch an interview the Director gave, and he explained some of it but, I would also add two or more people interacting together can create a synergy they would not see working alone. Explaining why some couples or teams can be so successful. I would also add I loved how the end could be interpreted so many different ways as well. Well worth the 80 minutes to watch it.

The movie itself was tolerable...pretty much just a low budget sci-fi version of Groundhog Day meets Requiem for a Dream... ...and then the first blatant rip off: Fight Club. The whole "father/god" speech of Tyler Durden is repeated here almost verbatim, and the character was even identical. ...and again at the and, yet another near verbatim rip off: The end of Vanilla Sky, where Kurt Russel's character busts through the rooftop door to exclaim his "realness"... except it happens here on a beach with the same Tyler Durden ripoff. An homage is one thing, but when your film is only 80 minutes long and you STILL can't write your own material so you steal scenes from other popular films...then your movie itself is trash. Next time, write your OWN material!

Hasn't anyone seen flight club? Barton is a blatant character rip off. Even the cheap red pleather jacket.. Other than that I liked the movie. Good concept and interesting.
