Am I missing something?
Aug. 2nd, 2005 11:21 pmJust watched Primer, after months of having folks tell me it was an amazing mind-fuck, and avoiding all spoilers.
So, um, where was the mind-fuck? Seemed like a pretty straight-forward time travel story with multiple causality loops. Well done definitely, but I kept waiting for the big wowzer moment, and then the credits rolled. Ernh?
Seriously, did I miss something?
Edit: Yes, I loved it. :) Just wondering, seriously, if the DVD skipped a chapter or something. Not because it didn't make sense, but because it *did*. My one naggling question was Rachel's Dad. That seemed ambiguous.
(Watch it, if you haven't.)
