Comments: I had never even heard of Timecrimes before walking past it on the shelf at Blockbuster. It had a sweet looking DVD cover (not the poster above) that made the film look like a horror film. Instead what I got was an excellent time-travel film. The film was brilliantly executed, and it was obvious that a lot of thought and effort was put into the film. Time travel films are always interesting because of the complications and implications that occur when the person is in the past. In the case of Timecrimes, you do what you saw yourself do even before you traveled back in time. Even though the film's full of questions, it does an excellent job of giving as many answers as it can without ruining the film. And of course, the U.S. remake comes out in 2011.


Also Known As: Los Cronocrimenes
