The Butterfly Effect
starring: Ashton Kutcher, Amy Smart, Eldon Henson, Eric Stoltz, Ethan Suplee. Directed by Eric Bress and J. Mackye Gruber.
running time: 113 minutes
MPAA says: R for violence, sexual content, language, and brief drug use
Release date: January 23, 2004
Seen at: The Regal Gateway Stadium 16, home of the gigantic Viggo/Hidalgo poster, on a drippy rainy night. They do not like outside food at the Gateway 16. Or outside laptops. Because everyone is going to be trying to record a copy of this movie to their hard drives—if everyone is indulging in brief drug use.


Quick impression

Better than you might think. In the hands of a supremely good director, it could have been mindboggling. Try not to think about what a good film it could have been—unless you too have the ability to remake the past by thinking really hard... In which case, carry on. I'll wait.

Report to follow.

Cool! I've been wanting to see this one. It's hard to imagine Ashton Kutcher in any kind of role other than the idiot-boy, but it looked pretty good.
