Primer
Primer, left me confused as to what was going on, but had a general concept of the film. Primer disrupts the natural boundaries of the world by traveling back in time. The film plays around with the fantastic and the uncanny with the main characters as we see the fantastic implemented as both characters time travel, breaking the natural laws. Following the film, it becomes apparent that with each time travel or time traveling in general, a clone is created. It creates this uncanny affect for the main characters seeing a projection of themselves, coming together with over all them of human ethics and technology. This particular film reminds me of inception, where the audience had to really think about what they just watched in the film. Like most reactions to thinking about it, many went to re-watch inception, getting a better gist of what the director and writer were trying to convey. But it seems in Primer, that was the whole premise of the film, trying to get the audience to go beyond just film and make them fill in the gaps. Overall the film was just okay for me as a viewer. I did not hate, but did like as other films.
