The Groundhog Day time loop and differing viewpoints at the core of this movie seemed like extremely irritating gimmicks to me. How many times do I need to see the same things over and over again? And no, these gimmicks are not new, innovative concepts. Groundhog Day did the time loop infinitely better than this film did. Rashomon did the whole differing viewpoints idea so well that it became a global movie classic decades ago. Oh, and let's not even talk about the mini cliffhangers that repeatedly tore the action away at key moments. It's a shame this film was so badly hobbled by its creators as it has an excellent cast and a compelling story to tell.
