Did not see a post on this, looks good.
Do you love time loops?
Here's the elevator pitch for this movie: Groundhog Day meets Source Code meets Edge of Tomorrow. We're in!
The film opens with our very buff-looking hero Renton (Robbie Amell, from the CW's short-lived time-travel series The Tomorrow People) and his companion Hannah (Rachael Taylor of Netflix's Jessica Jones) getting a harsh wake-up call from a gang of gun-toting goons in gas masks. While trying to escape, Renton falls down some stairs and... wakes up back in the same bed with Hannah. Then the same goons interrupt our hero's morning again, only this time he's prepared and tries to kill the bad dudes. This ploy ends with Renton getting shot and... waking up in the same bed again, just before the goon squad arrives again.

It was a solid scifi flick, which there just isn't enough of these days. If you like scifi at all check it out so NetFlix will make more. If you don't like scifi but like Trish Walker from Jessica Jones you still might like it.

Decent time loop movie.
For fans of time loops, I'd suggest reading The First Fifteen Lives of Harry August. I loved that book. Also, Mother of Learning, a web-only time loop story is pretty awesome too (lots of magic in this one though if that's not up your alley).

It wasn't bad. I've seen much more compelling time loop movies. I wikapediaed the plot, skipped some of the movie then watched the end.
I do applaud Netflix for producing original content. That company may actually have a time machine as they always seem to be one step ahead of the rest of the video entertainment industry.

Yea I enjoyed it. Pleasantly surprised. If you want a really good time loop movie though watch Primer. There's people who've made like time tables, pie charts, and formulas to try and explain/understand the time loops in it. It hurts my brain to think about it ha but amazing flick.

Have you seen Predestination?
That just hurts my head.
