  Review by cupofcoffinjoe ★★★★ 2

  This is an easy front-runner for the "Best Movie of the Year I'd Never Heard of." With zero name recognition and it's goofy 1990's title and poster art, I probably wouldn't have given this little movie a second thought. But it was the 80th most downloaded movie of the day, and it had a good review on the IMDB, so, I thought, why not give it a quick whirl?

  Despite the fact that this sort of thing never goes well...this actually went pretty damned well! Given the budget, the performances were mostly pretty good, the dialog had few clunkers and, most importantly, the story was entertaining and well told, without ever looking cheap. Best of all, it has the courage…

  Review by London ★★★

  This movie is absolutely bonkers. It has so much ambition and so many ideas it wants to execute that unfortunately it trips over itself quite a lot. Especially when getting into the last 15 or so minutes, when it enters a mad dash to finish the film, cutting corners left and right.

  However, there is still a lot of fun to be had. Some genuinely emotionally devastating moments are in the film, and the performances are for the most part pretty good. There is also so great use of lighting and a few scenes that actual fill you with a sense of suspense. It's a short fun film that put on shoes that were a little to big for them to fill.

  This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.

  I knew in the first minute or so when the voiceover sound mixing was virtually indistinguishable from the phone call sound mixing and the dialogue sound mixing that I was no longer dealing with quality filmmaking. 

  A group of (age not discernible) coeds go searching after a professor who went searching after his parents who went searching after the fountain of youth in a cave somewhere in Texas. Turns out the cave is stuck in time. Then there’s aliens and cavemen. The end. 

  This was horrendously bad. Laughably bad. Not unenjoyably bad but definitely shitty screenwriter bad. 

  Where to begin?

  The “main character” appears for a grand total of ten minutes, serves as a plot impetus, and then is hardly…

  Review by DirkH ★★★½ 1

  So if you're in the mood for a low key sci fi movie with a very pleasant running time and a good sense of self, look no further.

  I was very pleasantly surprised by Time Trap, especially because the way it gets presented on Netflix doesn't really bode well. Nothing could be further from the truth as this cleverly constructed film just breezes through with a plot that unravels at a perfect pace.

  There are no real characters here, which is absolutely fine as this is more about the mystery than the people inhabiting it. Sure, there are many things to bitch about if you're so inclined, but I was just pleasantly surprised by how this film manages to do a lot with a little.

  Kinda crappy acting. Kinda bad dialogue. Kinda racist.

  But also a neat concept that would have made a good Doctor Who episode.

  Review by ❀ Chadwin ❀ ★★

  It’s sorta ambitious...at the very least.  But it’s kinda wack.  And by kinda, I mean it’s very wack.

  This movie is so bad my mind can not forget it. It is a curse. And I'm writing this review like a year and a half later and I still remember it clear as day.

  Review by Matt ★★

  Rarely have I seen a film encapsulate the 'well that escalated quickly' meme so accurately. There's virtually no budget until the last ten minutes, the acting is downright amateurish and the writing simply appalling...but the actual story and the way it just explodes into 'christ that's ambitious, ok then' territory I found really endearing. Decent fun if you're in the mood for nonsense.

  Review by Marianna Neal ★★★½ 7

  I LOVED the concept of Time Trap! And that makes this movie difficult for me to rate because I love sci-fi films with great concepts. It's always easier for me to forgive a movie's flaws if it actually does something interesting. And Time Trap sure has flaws - characters, dialogue, logic... But it plays with the idea of time in such a cool way, that I still enjoyed this film very much.

  This is also something that would have benefited from a bigger budget. It's impressive what they managed to achieve with what they had, but you can tell this could have been even better if they had more to work with.

  What makes Time Trap difficult to talk about…
