> It's one of my favorites, though I could easily understand why people wouldn't like it. I don't think anyone could really get what all is going on the first time you see it... While you can get the general plot, there's a lot of cool stuff you catch only on a second (or third or fourth) viewing. One thing that makes me happy is that its a movie that is really pretty logical when it comes to time travel...

I actually didn't like it as much on a second viewing, perhaps because I pretty much absorbed the whole thing the first time and all I saw were picky flaws the second time. These mostly involved the movie trying to have linear time travel but not quite making it. In linear time travel (as I call it), you can't change the future because, after all, any time travel would have been accounted for in the original/only time line. The movie seems to follow this idea, except with regards to the telephone answering tape (any and all calls made to the tape would have already been known about before Bruce Willis went to the past). Of course, this could be used to support the argument that it was all in Bruce Willis' head.

I do recommend the movie highly.
