I hadn't watched Timecrimes in a while and since I had watched Triangle recently, it made me want to watch it again. AM I IN A TIME LOOP?
The cast in this movie is small. When I looked it up, I saw the writer/director was also in it as an actor. He was quite good! Everyone in this is good, but there are only 4 of them.
The story in this is cool. It plays with the concept of time travel in a very compact way. What you do going back has an effect on what will happen. In this case, it all happens to this small set of people. It's not exactly a full time loop because only one person is in it and he willingly goes in multiple times, but it's a similar theme.
The pacing is great. The whole movie only lasts about 90 minutes and every beat adds to the story.
The only thing that may give YOU a pause, dear reader, is if you don't speak Spanish and don't like reading subtitles. It's a Spanish movie, what do you want from me? It's worth it, though. There isn't a ton of dialogue throughout, but what's there is easy to understand.
