This was a great film with a brilliant concept that explores actions and consequences. There are some great characters; particularly with the suspense between Evan and Tommy for their earlier actions as we don’t learn who is responsible or which events occurred at first. I love the imagery of the butterfly flying around inside the brain in the opening credits; and perhaps the producers could have repeated this move every trip or show Evan to have a major phobia of butterflies. There’s also a great transition between Evan’s adolescent and college years. It is a bit demonic when Evan travels back to alter his future; and perhaps it could have been altered by actions rather than Evan becoming a possessed child reprimanding adults in their ways (though it is a good prompt to put him in the asylum). It’s a shame that the directors didn’t explore crazier worlds or add alternative worlds every time Evan went back and made a change. Perhaps this is something that they explore in their sequels, maybe with a different character. There’s so much more here that could be done.
