    The Grandfather Paradox: You go back in time and kill your grandfather when he's a little boy...so you're never born and never go back in time... Most time-travel movies deal with the Grandfather Paradox by ignoring it, but *this* film revels in it. A very well-done SciFi film.

    Wonderfully surprised. I am a huge time travel movie buff and this movie met my standards. I agree with other reviewers on here to watch it in Spanish with English subtitles, else it will come off as poor acting. Excellent story and crazy ending, a must see!

    This movie surprised us. It was actually pretty good. The humor throughout as Hector tries to deal with his mistakes and set things right was the biggest surprise. It was subtle and interesting how Hector changed with each attempt to put things right. The ending was kind of low key but when you think about it, what else could he do?
