So much average

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

This could have been a great series and I don't understand why they didn't pursue it. With "Quantum Leap" what kept the viewer so engaged was a different venue every time with familiar characters. I really liked this pilot, and I think it's abandonment was a waste of a really very good idea.This one and QL also brought an education to viewers about culture in different times. So interesting, and such a waste to scrap this one.The concept will be brought back at some point, and it will be a popular money-maker.

You know how music has these boy-bands/girl-bands where there's a group of people so everybody has one to love. This movie follows the same commercial lame recipe.It's basically a copy of NCIS, or NCI, or NCIS-LosAngeles, or NCIS-Florida, or whatever it is all those spin off nonsensical shows are called these days.It's one big caricature that even amateurs can't make as bad as these producers managed to do.This 'movie' is a total waste of watching-time if you like quality-TV.It gets 2 out of 10 because it's about time-travel, but deserves zero out of 10 for it's lameness.I have nothing good to say about this 'movie'. So stereotypical of current commercial TV it's to cry for.Yuck, yuck and more yuck.End-of-review.

While this was actually what i would call a fairly good timetravel-movie, i can not Believe how they could go through all this trouble doing a Movie and not having the ending all fixed and set.On Another note, and to tell the director of the Movie, you better get your team together again, because that kind of an ending should be criminal.And for my fellow Movie Viewers, this is actually quite well made, there's only a few loose ends that did not get tied up in the end. But that is to be expected when you Watch a Movie like this one. It still gives what i would call a good value and good Entertainment, maybe not a Movie to buy and put on your shelves, but a good Movie for a thursday evening on Netflix or any other online streaming service.The acting could, like the story, be a Little glitchy from time to time, but i did not find anything catastrophic in there. The actors did a fine job most of the time, and did really good at "living in the moment". All in all, i liked this Movie, my reason to give it such a bad rating was the way the thing ended.

Syfy has done it again, this time taking bits from continuum. I don't mind bringing greats shows to America but Syfy just ends up ruining everything with all the Americanizing, cough being human for example. The time travel based procedural cop show angel is fine but this show is more procedural cope show than science fiction.The first 5 minutes of any story should grab the audience, with Science Fiction that is incredibly easy, show some flashy tech, some amazing event, a character saying incredibly crazy almost incomprehensible things that will later make sense, any of those will do, they are all solid sci fi hooks and really not anything that needs to change. When I see science fiction turn into a procedural cop show with bad acting, shaky camera angles to add intensity, and awful dialogue, I no longer have a reason to watch.Syfy, if your going to make a science fiction show, focus on the science, even if your acting and dialogue are bad, people tuning into to Syfy to watch a science fiction may stick around. Trying to change the format of a genre to get viewers that prefer cop shows, drama, or reality TV, only makes science fiction fans turn away. I don't understand the logic, people who like Science Fiction and are always infront of a computer and TV so why should you make shows appeal to people that never watch or watch other genres? Make Syfy for science fiction fans."Science fiction is an existential metaphor, that allows us to tell stories about the human condition" -- Isaac Asimov
