markgonz1 I was so surprised at how good this movie was. After seeing the trailer, and recognizing that it isn't a popular film and also has a lower rating on IMDb, I wasn't expecting anything great. However, after sitting down to watch the movie (because I was interested in the idea of the plot), I was hooked from the start! It jumps right into the story and is very, very fast paced. If you like a movie with drama, tons of suspense and a hint of science-fiction, this one is definitely for you. The acting wasn't the best I've seen in a movie, but it wasn't horrible by any means either. The movie is presented with very dark colour, which definitely added to the atmosphere of the film.Overall, 7/10. Idea? Great. Film? Great. Acting? So-so. Ending? Not sure how to feel yet. You just need to watch it to find out.

knockemdeadkidd23 As it states, I'm not going to repeat what you already know.In the strange event that today repeated itself, tomorrow, and the next day, and so on. Questions you would ask yourself would be grand, and this movie does NOT leave many questions.If you were given the same day to do what ever you want, would you kill, would you murder, would you rape, or would you save a life? these are possibly already questions you may have. Luckily this movie gets to the darker groundhogs day that some people may have been thinking about the whole time. I mean why wouldn't some one want to go rob a bank, or possibly commit a even more heinous crime? Tomorrow it wouldn't count right?This movie bends your emotions, plays with your mind, and doesn't stop until the end. This movie does lack real depth, which may cause you to not be as close with the characters, or may cause you to lose interest. But with that being said with what depth it tries to create it isn't a reason that this film should be avoided, not by any means.The filming is perfect, it captures the lovely British Columbia that I've loved since I was a kid, and happens to make a wicked back drop for the entire film.There was only one actress I knew in this entire film, which was Amanda Crews, asides from that I have never seen any of the other actors/actresses in anything. If they have been in several other works than that would explain how their acting helps this movie on so many levels, it will play with every emotion no matter how heartless you are.But if this is actually one of their few jobs they pulled it off perfectly.I couldn't give this anything less than a 6

popepeacock Uh, no explanation at all as to how it is they travel through time- (and don't tell me ooooh lightning struck them...cause thats no explanation) and no explanation as to how they STOP travelling through time..although SPOILER...apparently they don't stop casue the end scene is Mike waking up again...so uh...this movie was NOTHING more than a "don't do drugs" film. cause thats all they kept harking on. People who do drugs, obviously (so sayeth the movie) make bad decisions and are bad people.I bet they show this film in rehab a lot just like they make people watch "doing time on maple drive" cause I've been staff in rehab and trust me, they make you watch some pretty lousy don't do drugs movies...This film is not a mind bending thriller...its a movie about people who made crap decisions with their lives , ended up at a rehab center, somehow without explanation got the power to reliver the same day over and over again, and still made BAD DECISIONS throughout the film , so, moral of the story...bad people, do bad things, because they are bad. When they are druggies on top of it, they then have an excuse for their being bad...god this movie was so boring.

MrGKB ...director/cinematographer Carl "Emile" Bessai's "Repeaters" is likely Arne "Red Scorpion" Olsen's best screenplay, which may or may not be saying much, given that the story is basically a riff on the Harold Ramis classic, "Groundhog Day." This incarnation (unsubtle allusion intended) follows three young addicts in rehab as they find themselves reliving one day over and over again no matter what they do. Check the trivia section of "Groundhog Day" for the source inspiration(s) of this premise. "Repeaters" pursues the dark side of such a situation; the three time-trapped protagonists revel in the baser pleasures of such freedom, and inevitably one of them goes too far. Once that happens, the rest of the story centers on the efforts of one of the others to put a halt to things. I won't spoil things any further in that regard.Most notable are the three leads, two of them reunited from the cast of "Final Destination 3:" Dustin "Slither" Milligan, Amanda "The Haunting in Connecticutt" Crew, and Richard "Cole" de Klerk; all turn in effectively nuanced performances, and I would expect that all three will have decent careers. The support is fine as well; don't miss Emily "Ginger Snaps" Perkins' cameo appearance; I wonder if that bit of casting was an in-joke. Bessai's camera-work is effective (as is his direction), Jeff "The Boondock Saints" Danna's score suits well, and even the pop soundtrack isn't too obnoxious. Interested viewers could do a lot worse, let me assure you. At least this is one Canadian indie I can't fault my local library for acquiring.
