With his debut feature, Vigalondo has created an amusing horror/thriller/farce about a bumbling accidental time traveler who neither understands nor cares about the paradoxes of screwing around with time. "Timecrimes" toys with causal determinism and free will in a darkly humorous package. A welcome addition to the genre.

Tightly made, and I'm still thinking about it after I finish watching it.

Oh man...so good. Figuring out the purpose of every single moment from that first act is just fantastic.

A neat little time travel film tied up in a tidy bow. Well crafted, though "Primer" is still the gold standard for indie time travel films. Nitpick: I FUCKING HATE when someone is able to tiptoe up behind someone else, unheard, in a forest. It always rings false.
