PROJECT ALMANAC - film / by Cut to the chase


 Knew nothing about this film when I walked in and quickly realised we would not get along.

Hand. Held. Camera.

I am a very light touch when it comes to motion sickness so this was a disaster for me. I really tried hard to stick it out FOR YOU GUYS. SEE WHAT I DO FOR YOU!?

But at the 50 minute mark, my stomach could take it no longer and I had to swiftly dash out the cinema. You can guess the rest, though I wouldn't recommend it.

The last time this happened to me was with the film Kenny. Urgh.

For what it's worth, the film is about three high school nerds, a cute sister and a hot popular girl from school who manage to invent a way to time travel. But (surprise!) they don't think through all the consequences of this. I wish I could tell you how that aspect of the film unfolds but I didn't return after my aforementioned exit. What I did get through I wasn't particularly impressed by, so if you're willing to take the word of someone who only got through 50 minutes of a movie, I'd say give this a miss.

Here's a two star review in the UK Telegraph for you if you want the full picture, more on the story etc. And trailer here.
