[3.5] The fundamental expectation of human beings to break free from the constraints of linear time is to create the great meaning of life, and the real result is in this film: under the desire to drive through time and again, life collapses in meaning with the increase of possibility. Ended up trapped in the Sisyphus cycle of self-rescue. The switching frequency of photography and editing in the film is so high that the narrative intensity almost disappears. To some extent, they are abstract...

3.5 stars, the creativity is very good, but the filming method is still too rough, which greatly affects the viewing experience, but it is worth encouraging because it is a low-cost independent...

The viewing experience is too bad, I want to scold the director, it's bizarre that the vulgar story of time travel out of control is so poorly filmed, the first half wants to be made into a pseudo-documentary, and then the devil shakes the devil's editing directly, please, it's all audiences in the form of dialogue It is impossible to establish a connection with the protagonist at all. After seeing the back, I have no idea who is who. In addition, the low-cost production even the plot after...

Like the color of the countercurrent in the sequel 9 years later, there is no narrative at all. I almost don’t understand the timeline of time travel. My understanding is deviated. Because there is no narrative, it is very similar to the creative idea of vedio art, which is confusing. The staggered timeline + mental and emotional agitation contrasts with the boring texture of daily life in a small American town, which is an incisive depiction of (pre-epidemic) modern...

I'm going to make a pit for subtitles. Idea is very interesting, but as everyone said, the narrative of the debut of a male science director is really terrible. The points are all in the dialogue. If you are not paying attention, you may not know what the protagonist is doing. What's more terrible is that 10 years ago, the pirate business's opportunity to turn the subtitles and cheat proofreading (my uncle made it, CHD forum veteran, teaching sports) caused everyone to look...

Don't expect to see it once and claim that you understand all the director's intentions. Although this sci-fi movie is somewhat dull, there is no doubt that this sci-fi movie is very...

"Meaning" is a bomb that has been defused
"Primer" is said to have been sold for seven thousand dollars. The domestic translation is "Detonator". In the movie theater, I watched it intently. Halfway through it, I suddenly realized that I had no idea what the film was talking about. What attracts me is the sensory function of the...

"Detonator" or "Initiator"——A preliminary analysis of "Primer"
After reading it twice, I haven't fully understood it yet. I will analyze it later when I have time to clarify what I understand.
Thirty minutes before the film, the protagonists Abe and Aaron, both in a four-person team, work in the company during the day, and are engaged in R&D...
Primer quotes

Aaron: [voiceover, continuing the phone recording with which the movie opens] And there was value in the thing, clearly, that they were certain of. But what is the application? In a matter of hours, they had given it into everything from mass transit to satellite launching, imagining devices the size of jumbo jets. Everything would be cheaper. It was practical, and they knew it. But above all that, beyond the positives, they knew that the easiest way to be exploited is to sell something they did not yet understand. So they kept quiet.

[Abe is showing Aaron what he has learned about the device's control over time, and Aaron is sweating, nervous. The clock shows 7 minutes past 2 a.m]
Abe: Did you notice those? When you were controlling the feeds, did you notice the parabolic? Hey, it's important. Parabolas are important. Here, look at this.
Aaron: I don't know, Abe.
Abe: Now, I'm gonna start it up and let it run for sixty seconds with, with nothing in it, okay, it's empty this time.
Aaron: [watching the time] That's twenty-two.
Abe: In all the equations that describe motion and heat...
[They start to cross-talk over each other]
Aaron: Now, just one minute, just a second...
Abe: ...in all the Feynman diagrams, what's the one variable that you can turn into negative and still get rational answers from?
Aaron: That's one minute out here...
Abe: It's not mass, it's not...
Aaron: Twenty-two hours...
Abe: It's about twenty-two hundred.
Aaron: ...twenty-two minutes in the box.
Abe: It's an odd, it's an odd number.
Aaron: How many minutes is it? That's thirteen hundred, forty-seven minutes.
Abe: Okay, yeah, thirteen forty-seven, you got that fast.
Aaron: How - Why is it odd? How did you know it was odd?
Abe: Because this is it, okay? This is what's going on...
