I prefer to call it "parallel time and space"

The first time I was interested in the movie Time Travel was when my good friend searched for movies on a torrent site. I glanced and saw such a movie. I said it should be good. After she downloaded it, she copied it to me. After that, this movie was on my desktop for almost a month. Every time I saw it, I felt a lot of expectations. I finally finished it today, and I really felt that it did not disappoint me.
The story is a story between a couple and a good friend + oil bottle + light bulb + hidden third party. The foreshadowing is very casual and natural. After reading it and then going back to think about it, I will find that a scene, a sentence, or even an expression in the first half of the original movie is so meaningful. In fact, I have never liked movies with such atmosphere and color tone, because there are too many hidden elements in the minds of the characters in the story, which is not practical and has no sense of security. To be honest, I admire that the heroine has a leg with someone else, but the three of them can still live under the same roof for so long.
When I just watched it, I didn't understand how the so-called time travel was done. Later, I realized that instead of calling it time travel, it is better to call it a parallel time and space. Today's me and tomorrow's me exist in two times and spaces at the same time, and they are doing the same thing one after another. And this camera is to take pictures of tomorrow's scenes, and keep the pictures today. This is the me of tomorrow. After I have experienced it, I will remind me of today that although I stumbled and stumbled in the previous time and space, I can pass the experience to myself in the next time and space, so that the latter time and space can avoid making mistakes. This is why the heroine said calmly at the end: Tomorrow we will all forget these things. Because in the parallel time and space, she has already passed the information, and when she arrives at the moment of being arrested in the next time and space, she will not allow the secret to be exposed again.
In addition, such a brain-burning movie will make people tremble after watching it. A woman's life revolves entirely around a man. With such a life-changing machine, her choice is only to improve her relationship with her boyfriend. Well, love is both great and humble.

Time Lapse quotes

  • Callie: [reading from Bezzerides' journal] I know the rule of time and causality is that one should not attempt to change the future. But under these circumstances, it seems to be a risk worth taking. If I believed in God, I would pray today that no greater harm will come from what I am about to do.

  • Jasper: Don't fuck with time.
