I am wondering on what kind of movie I should review but there is one movie that pops up in my mind while walking on the streets and it is PROJECT ALMANAC. This movie is about traveling into the past. With its awesome director Dean Israelite, the writers were Jason Pagan, Andrew Deutschman, and the actors/actresses Amy Landecker, Sofia Black-D'Elia, Virginia Gardner who were exceptional at acting on the movie.
You can watch the trailer for this movie if your are curious about it.
Story
The story is about David who is struggling to pay his tuition on his school and he and his friends went to their basement to find something that is valuable to sell to pay off his tuition but they discovered a blueprint and a machine that can travel back in time.
They made one for it from the blueprint using his dad's equipment that was stash under the ground.
They tried to use the time machine and it was a success that they traveled back in time, they were really happy that they can travel back in time but little did they know that there were a lot of consequences if they change the past.
What will happen to the future if they will change the past?
What do you like about the movie?
There are lots of things that I liked about the movie but one of the things that I liked is how they built the time machine. I think it is complex to make one and it needs a lot of time to study this one. One thing is for sure, David's dad is one truly hell of a genius that he built the time machine on his own but David uses it in his own good.
These young people wasted on using this time machine and they used it for their own good, not for the benefit of all. Anyway, that's just how people works. Sometimes, they were too greedy and for their greediness, lots of terrible that happened in the future.
One scene that pops into my mind in this movie is that David travel back in time where his dad is alive and I think it's David's seventh birthday. David was really happy to see his dad and it makes me cry while they saw each other. They talked on what's in the future.
It really touches me after I saw them hugging each other because David knew that his dad passed away when he was seven but to see his dad is one of his dream after the incident of the future.
What would I do if I have that time machine capsule?
People tend to use the time machine for their happiness just like the movie. To be frank, Yes, I obviously would do the same just like what they did in the movie like I will make myself happy and do things that makes me happy but in the end, I will suffer the consequences.
The best thing that I can do is to only visit the past and see my loved ones. It makes me feel happy that I see them just like my grandfather who passed away last 3 years ago and I want to thank him for the things that he do to me.
Thoughts
This movie depicts on what will happen to the future and to the past. If we change the past, the future will also change. At first, these young people were very happy that they travel to the past and they make fun of it but in the end, they face the consequences that they could not imagined.
I think making a time machine that could travel back in time is close to impossible but not limited to possible but now, it is impossible to make it. Maybe in the future, it is possible and I'm not there anymore.
If you like watching Science Fiction (Sci-Fi) movie, then you will really love this movie. It shows you the truth on changing the past will also change the future.
The movie is 7/10 because there are lots of surprises and it will excite you on how they manage to change it for the better good but you will eventually knew that teenagers are just teenagers to do st*pid things just like the movie.
How about you? What would you do if you can travel back in time? What would you like to change? Let's see your comments below and let's discuss together.
