This film had two strikes against it [from my point of view] that had nothing to do with its merits or lack thereof. First, I saw it for the first time on October 4th of this year, and the events of Sept 11th were/are too fresh in my mind for me to enjoy the spectacle of wanton killing with a blind eye to the devastating effects on the victims and their families. Easy to say "Oh, lighten up, already; this is a fantasy." I'm sorry, but Sept 11th still got in the way. Second, I think I'm too old for this. [I'm a grandmother.] I couldn't even follow the plot. I got lost and couldn't find the dividing line that distinguished between reality and "virtual" reality. It seemed as though some of the rewind/play-it-over-again/different-results were real, and then they turned out not to have been, but they still affected the reality
Other people liked this film, and I am wondering what they got out of it that I missed. I have a graduate degree, but I never truly understood this plot. But there's a great scene with Russell Crowe in the buff -- now that, I loved!
