What I love
I love that I didn't want to see this movie. That makes it all the better that I was very impressed with it. I was expecting some tacky-this-isn't-believeable thing, but was happily surprised to find it wasn't that way at all. Honestly, the storyline of this movie can't really be explained without making it sound incredibly stupid, so I'm going to leave too too short summary where it is. This movie was different, but really leaves something to ponder.What I hate
The overly tacky romance scenes don't sit with me. For example, when Matt Damon and Emily Blunt meet, it just doesn't seem realistic. Other than this minor slip up the rest of the movie flows perfectly.Overall
Must see? Very much yes.Would you see it again? Definitely.
Recomended for fans of SciFi Thriller Romance flicks. A toned down version of "Inception."
