"It's impossible to suffer without making someone pay for it"

Mother and Cop work together to get out of a sticky situation and under the threat of a mob leader.Personally, I don't like when a script puts character in a position and their reaction is to be "incompetent". But sometimes it is realistic, and understandable. But it feels like this movie is consistently taking this line, which becomes frustrating after a point.Not to mention the so-called "reasoning" behind the lead's pairing making little sense, as we have a father already in pain immediately subjecting someone else to the same suffering.. defies logic (and taking over half the film to get there).The chain of events and execution of the premise leave a LOT to be desired.. I didn't enjoy this at all. Can't really recommend it.

Smh

Disappointing.First, let's discuss the title. At no point is there an actual paradox of any sort or any related "effects" of said nonexistent paradox.I've been "in love" with Olga for several years. I don't know if she is no longer being offered good roles or if she is making really poor choices but this one is bad either way.Harvey Keitel used to be pretty cool. His zenith was obviously as Winston, aka the Wolf in Pulp Fiction. This role is both minor and lame. How far has his career fallen that he would consider taking this role in such a stupidly written movie?One of his many poorly written lines goes something like "in life you are given three choices. Two are made for you." Pure stupidity. If the choice has been made for you, it isn't a choice. Never mind that what follows is both stupid and unnecessary, the statement is idiotic to begin with.All around, this movie fails on so many levels. I'm not sure why I even give it 5 stars.

Tedious and ambitious.

British Reviewer 4.4/10

The actors tried really hard to make something of a very thin screenplay. The plot was fine, the visuals actually great for what was clearly a tiny budget and the editing good.

Harvey Keitel was chronically underused but maybe that was a contractual thing and Kurylenko was quite decent although not believable as an ex-addict; too beautiful!

The main problem for me was the poor screenplay, script and pacing. The plot crawled along at an agonisingly slow pace at it's worst and the twist incredibly improbable.

Still, it's better than Twisters and A Quiet Place: Day One on a fraction of their budgets.
