I love this type of movie, but I totally missed the boat on this one....

I guess I need to watch it a few times to get it but it does seem confusing the way the story was put together. I couldn't come to a conclusion on whether Simon was dead or alive or if he really was reliving both 2000 and 2002. Or if everything, like someone said in a post, was symbolic of his feelings towards his brother, cause to me that would be kinda lame considering all the plot twists that occured between the two timelines. Seems like there's too much to figure out and too many things that are unexplained.

Will definately give it one more try, but that's it. Just like to add that I thought the acting was rather good and the whole movie was definately gripping from start to finish, just confusing.

well the whole point of this movie is that life in the few last moments (in this case 2 minutes) pasing like your whole life!!!

Now all the movie is happeing in those two mintues between 20:00 and 20:02 in 2000 year of course. Simon has a guild felling for taking there lifes (his and his brother) and that why in those two last mintues he tried as many chanced as he could in changing the "past". The whole idea I beilve that in "after" taking many chances his brother in the end sence confist him to release that and to exacpt the truth that is a defualt fate(death of them and that he's guilty). In 20:02 he wake up to accept his death he been told "you dead"

if there any other missing plot points just ask!!!

I tried to equate this movie to "dead end" as if he was in some sort of purgetory, but I still don't know. Watched "The Attic Expeditions" tonight as well, and both have me completely dumbfounded...

OKe. you say it is happening between 20:00 and 20:02 in 2000.
but why did he wake up in 2002?
and finally did both brothers die? or Simon did survive.

he didnt waked up in 2002 it was 20:02 in 2000 year its the whole point that its seems that it's 2002 and yes the both brothers died. my advise is to watch this movie again more carefull and the end explain like 75% of this movie!!!
