Johnson is nothing if not a punchy ringmaster of deadpan humor and his grab-bag mindset generates enough goodwill to appreciate the DIY brashness of it all.

The movie is, among other things, very specifically and unabashedly Canadian, and made with evident love for its city. But I expect this is a comedy that can transcend borders.

It’s also an early contender for the funniest and most charming movie of the year.

You’ll laugh, you won’t cry, but you will stumble across a textbook about how to make a comedy that has the potential to become a cult classic.

The film feels destined to become a DVD-shelf comedy classic...that rewards multiple rewatches.

It was really a blair witch project on shaky film technique, meets a back to the future remake. Definitely not in line with 90% on rotten tomato

Anyone who likes time travel will like this. Must watch story about time travel, and the importance of losing/not losing a friend.
