This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

Awful, yes, just after 1 hour. Before that time you are mislead in believing that it is a Science Fiction movie about space time fragmentation, but in the end you recognize that the writer got no clue how to end the story.My advise: write a story with a beginning, middle and end. Do not experiment with alternative story writing. Indie movie is not all about holding a brand new camera with 4k resolution.

WARNING: SPOILER ALERT!!!Do not be mislead by the pointless, misleading synopsis. Like the excellent "Final Approach" the synopsis bears only the loosest relationship the the film and could be construed as misrepresentation under the Trades Description Act. This is a GOOD THING (tm).A truer synopsis might read something like this:"A touching and tragic drama about the development of psychosis.Two high-school best friends: Mattie is a confident musician but her wealthy home-life is remote. Jess is shy and likes science, with an equally remote but harder home life.After a car accident, in which her best friend Mattie was driving, Jess suffers very serious head trauma: a bizarre case of locked-in syndrome; unable to communicate with the outside world Jess's fantasy becomes her reality and in a surrealistic twist her reality becomes increasingly and confusingly entwined with the real lives of others. These are: Mattie and Mattie's boyfriend Riley, Aiyana (the school psychologist) & Mark (a science teacher) at the start of their own relationship, and the ambulance men who provide first-aid.The personal demons of Aiyana & Mark provide them with the ability to sympathise with the increasing bizarre life of Mattie as her reality merges with that of locked-in Jess.Ultimately, Mattie seeks forgiveness for the tragic accident, which though given, in a Faustian twist, takes upon herself the personality of Jess; thus releasing Jess who becomes Mattie's other personality in developing full-blown schizophrenia.(There is some mumbo-jumbo pseudo-science about quantum entanglement to explain why this group are brought together, which is rather unconvincingly given and best ignored, hence this film gets an 8 not a 9.)

First of all, forget the official synopsis. This is not a sci-fi flick about the collapse of spacetime or anything like that. It's misleading and it's a shame, I think that is what has put some people off.What it is though is a rather clever mind screw as the result of a car crash. Stick with it and it all starts to make sense, it was interesting to try to guess what was going on and I almost got it right. There are some very clever and emotionally charged plot changes. The acting is not that bad, especially when the get to the crunch of what is really going onThink of it as similar to the butterfly effect, for a low budget movie this really was a clever storyline if a little too long before it got to the real emotional crunch point of the car crash itself.

As some of the other reviews stated, the script was a bit convoluted as if written in segments by different people. First, the school stuff changes. Then, the EMT's appear as of they're some kind of saviours. They skip around what she is encountering without coming to the point. Then the science teacher gets involved... all like different chapters. Yup, I really was expecting some sort of real Black Hole to be involved, but it's not almost to the end that you start to suspect what is happening. About 3/4 of the way through, I was hoping they would get on with it and reveal what was happening. Little hints throughout would have been nice. Not a terrible movie, but I wouldn't pay for it. Good to watch ONCE.The acting is okay... but Izzie Steele's acting was pretty darn good. Not the large actions but the little things. The facial expressions, the rolling eyes, smirks, and so on. That really adds to the detail of the character. I hope she shows up in a better picture.I would have loved to find the Soundtrack, esp THE WALKING MAN.
