Primer (2004)
4/5
An ultra ultra low budget brilliant science fiction film. The core concept and writing are the strengths of the film. Performances are great and believable. The tension builds very slowly and it is highly intellectual instead of the modern attempts to gloss over the scifi genre with special effects. Instead this film is head ache inducing and mind bending and enjoyable. It explores interesting notions of personal identity problems and other philosophical issues. However the audio isn't that great and it is difficult to hear some important dialogue which makes it unnecessarily confusing at times. This film definitely needs multiple viewings.
