Good concept, poorly executed.

Don't listen to the negative reviews

By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

I have seen bad films, but this also causes major damage to my ears PSA dont use earplug

The film has everything you could want: a 1980's soundtrack, a noir look a la Blade Runner, a scientist mad with the possibilities of his time travel machine and a beautiful girl to make it all worthwhile. Add to this Michael Ironside, who just lends gravitas to the entire thing and the only thing you could be missing is a smart script. And you are not, because this movie is smart.So why didn't it become an instant classic? Because in the end, it was one hour and forty minutes for a punchline. The possibilities were infinite, pardon the pun, but the movie did not capitalize on them. That is why many of the people are either disappointed with the result or frustrated for not getting the complicated mechanics of time travel.For me, it was a stylistically beautiful movie, with a lot of love poured into it. The acting was good, the story interesting. Most stories are usually broken by the addition of time travel or are based on it so much that they ignore anything else that might matter. Synchronicity did not fall into the first category and came very close to slip from the second and into the one of great films. I am sure that if it would have been done in the 80s, the time it seemed to belong to - pardon the pun again, it would have had a great success.Bottom line: clearly better than average, but not consistently so. It has great moments and silly underdeveloped ones, it has a story with a lot of potential, but only a bit of it capitalized into anything. Certainly worth a watch.

Well, first, I was clearly biased when I watched this. This movie just happened to perfectly fit the location, mood, and life situation I was in at the time when I saw it.Nevertheless, I actually consider this movie to be more of a cinematographic state of mind more then a story line. And I think it's a success.The imagery, camera work, and the music, clearly pays its dues to movies such as Blade Runner and TRON: Legacy. I even believe (haven't checked it up though) the story takes place in the same universe as Blade Runner.I also found it to be well casted, smart, and well acted. I'm guessing it's made on a very limited budget but I think the money was very well spent. The CGI aren't in your face and I even found it hard to spot when it was actually used. That is possibly due to very wise choice of locations - we see many fastidious futuristic building buildings (the whole story takes place within dense urban areas) and concrete jungles.I found the music to be extremely fitting and after the end credits I directly started looking up the composer(s) of the motion picture soundtrack (Lovett), as well as the songs played during the end credits (Watch It - Space Art, Over the bridge - Ori Vidislavski, Mama - Ghostland Observatory, and Time Travel - Ben Lovett)The only negative I have to say about it is that I anted a bit more background and introduction to the min character (but now I'm really picky) and I think the atmosphere of the movie was lost right at the beginning of the end credits during the intro of the song "Watch It" by Space Art (bu, again, being picky here)So, for me:In the right mood, 9/10 Any given day, 7/10

As you can read in the title... The movie starts as a bad SF movie, weird scene with various scientific vocabulary that the viewer doesn't understand (in purpose I imagine), the movie starts with an invention discovery : time travel, and the scenes going and ongoing, every single scene becomes more clear to the viewer. Some scenes would just, at first, seem bad-played by the actors, but at the end gain logic and the role-plays take every of their logic. The movie is about time travel, parallel universes, and the whole plot is mind-blowing. What I thought first being an easy-to-watch movie, finally became a really deep-movie with an incredible plot. If you liked Inception, you'll probably like this one as well. Get ready to have your mind blown... This is definitely worth its 1 hour and 40 minutes.
