Product Description

Product Description

Synchonicity is a mind-bending 'Sci-fi Noir' in the tradition of Blade Runner, Gattaca and Memento.

Daring physicist Jim Beale has invented a machine that can fold space-time and ruthless corporate tycoon Klaus Meisner will stop at nothing to get it.

When Jim uses the machine to tear open the fabric of the universe, a rare Dahlia appears from the future. But in order to keep the rights to his invention he must prove that it works by finding the flower's identical match in the present.

Jim soon discovers that the Dahlia lies in the hands of the mysterious Abby, who seduces him into revealing his secrets. Convinced that she is in league with Klaus to take ownership of his life s work, Jim travels back in time to stop the conspiracy before it can happen.

But once in the past, Jim uncovers a surprising truth about Abby, the machine, and his own uncertain future.

'A fantastic film for sci-fi lovers' Ain't It Cool News

Format: DVD
With the financial aide of capitalist Klaus Meisner (Michael Ironside) Jim Beale (Chad McKnight) manages to create a wormhole. A rare flower comes through from the other side which sets off a chain of events dealing with the paradox of time travel...or is it a parallel universe?

The film is built upon an idea that an infinite number of universes exist which includes all different possibilities. What happens is that we have to sit through that oh so clever watching the same scene again from a different viewpoint with words taking on a different meaning. Unfortunately it was long and drawn out and not exciting the first time through. The leading lady is Brianne Davis who is made up to look like J-Law.

This is low intensity science fiction and should appeal to fans of "Primer." Personally I would have loved to have seen an adaptation of "What Mad Universe" instead...that is if you insist on going down that route. For low budget science fiction I prefer "Listening" or "Time Lapse."

Guide: F-bomb. Brief sex. No nudity. For hardcore Science Fiction fans.

Format: DVD
This is a low (but not no) budget, high production value, sci-fi thriller about "time travel", written and directed by Jacob Gentry, based on a story by Alex Orr. It has a proper script and proper actors.

-------some spoilers------

I'll try to reveal as little of the plot as possible, because it is rather fun, though it is not original.

Obsessive physicist Jim Beale (Chad McKnight) invents a way of opening a "worm-hole" in space-time which he eventually jumps into (as you do).
What follows is a well told and precise (if I was paying attention correctly) story of a world where there are two of him and their paths intersect, as "worm-hole Jim" tries to correct his past by interacting with "original Jim's" life. Or so it seems.

I thought it was a "proper" attempt at telling a proper sci-fi tale. McKnight is rather good at giving the impression that Beale might well be a bit unhinged to begin with, which always helps when you're in these types of brain-bending films.

There were a couple of problems for me. The central love-story, with "Abby" (Brianne Davis), which is meant to be the motivation for much (though not all!) of "Jim's" behaviour, while neatly told, just didn't feel authentic enough to me, to be such a motivating factor. Secondly, while the writer-director tells the story very well, cinematically, while it looks good, it does feel like some kind of homage to "Bladerunner" - synth. score, cityscapes, lights flashing through apartment windows and the blue filters. It was all very well done on the budget, but it wasn't clear to me how it fitted the story.

Overall, however, as a big sci-Fi fan, and allowing for the usual improbabilities, I thought it was a well made and intelligent film. I enjoyed it.
