Primer the movie vs Episode III

Posted by: Deane F on 26 May 2005

I saw the movie "Primer" the other day. Shot by rank amateurs pretty much, on handheld digital video too by the look. Replete with grainy and one or two slightly-out-of-focus shots. No special effects. No expensive cast.

Engaging the whole way through. Sci-fi story - engineers trying to develop marketable product and discover their machine can loop them back in time a day. The plot is not as cliched as suggested by the time travel concept however.

I enjoyed it a whole lot more than Star Wars Episode III - that's for sure.
