Project Almanac (2015)
Tumblr media
Project Almanac falls prey to the Achille’s Heel of bad time travel films: its characters are stupid, rules inconsistent, and science dubious. Even if you eliminated the plotholes, you'd be left with weak character motivations and an irritating use of the found-footage gimmick.
17-year-old high schooler David (Jonny Weston), his sister Chris (Virginia Gardner), and his best friends, Adam (Allen Evangelista) and Quinn (Sam Lerner) discover the blueprints to a time machine. Once they complete the device, they have the time of their lives until David’s longtime crush, Jessie (Sofia Black-D’Elia) becomes involved.
The time machine our protagonists build has some limitations, which sets us off on the right path. This avoids the potential ramifications of assassinating a young Mike Schneider before he directs Night of the Living Dead Re-Animated or other history-altering moves. Instead, the teens use the device to “skip” school, ace tests, etc. Disappointingly, the more trips they take, the more the picture becomes prey to standard time-travel tropes. In this film, if two versions of the same person come face-to-face, it creates a sort of feedback loop, which threatens to erase you from existence. Why? Does it have anything to do with altering the past? No, because whether messing with the timeline is perfectly fine or threatens all of existence depends on the scene. I understand the choice to pay homage to classic sci-fi stories like A Sound of Thunder, but here, the central conflict doesn’t really make any sense. I can believe that killing a prehistoric butterfly would change the future because millions of years have passed. Who knows how much happened between then and now? One little experiment causing the death of hundreds through a bizarre Final Destination-like chain? That's a stretch.
You might be able to forgive the numerous inconsistencies (I don’t) but you'll have a tough time accepting where this story goes. David is one of the most handsome nerds you'll ever see, he’s got the skills to put together a working time machine… but his actions are so stupid they’ll drive you nuts. In fact, none of these characters are particularly smart. Why bother distracting your past self so that you can take the test instead of them… when it would be much easier (and less risky when you consider that feedback loop thing) to send yourself a text message or a note? It’s not like the time machine is a secret!
We didn’t even cover the found-footage aspect, which is contrived. These kids are documenting themselves performing a bunch of crimes. Why? Wouldn’t you leave that out of your home video? There was no reason for this film to be shot the way it was, except to jump on the money-saving bandwagon. The shoddy writing and camera techniques wind up drowning everything the movie does well, a big letdown because it shows promise at first. I can see those who aren’t critical of science fiction films giving Project Almanac a pass, but under any scrutiny, you'll realize you're settling if this is what you choose to watch.

Concussion (2015)
Tumblr media
I'm saying it: Concussion has been unjustly judged. Yes, Will Smith probably took the role in the hopes of bagging himself an Academy Award, but his performance is a good one, and isn’t that what we want to see? Good actors challenging themselves with meaty roles? Combined with an important story that will make you think, can we call it a bad film?
When forensic pathologist Bennet Omalu (Smith) discovers a link between the premature deaths of football players and the injuries they suffered during their careers, he publishes a paper on his observations. Surprisingly, the reception it receives is less than warm.
If we can all be realistic and take a step back, can we admit that America’s love of football has gone a bit far? Yes, it requires enormous amounts of strategy, skill, and training to win and is tremendously entertaining… but it is, in the end, just a game. This film - based on a true story - frequently brings up the idea of religion. Faith is, of course, an important aspect of every person but in film, unless your religious affiliation is tied to the plot it feels like an unnecessary detail; a way to coax like-minded audiences into cheering for the protagonist. Its inclusion in Concussion is a brilliant move. Writer/director Peter Landesman realizes the zeal people have for the sport. It helps us understand Omalu’s distance from this American pastime. While other people look forward to the game on Sunday, he has another destination in mind that morning. He merely points out a link between tragic events and the injuries players suffer during a game. He never suggests that football should be obliterated, but it’s met with the same frightening hostility you'd expect from religious fanatics.
Even if Omalu wasn’t “in the right”, the film would still be entertaining. The characters are well developed and the performances quite strong, particularly from Smith. Omalu is sweet, cheerful, optimistic, well-intentioned, and pitted against such an overwhelming opponent! There’s a tender love story between him and his wife, Prema (Gugu Mbatha-Raw) that helps you care about the man’s personal life and understand his motivations.
On a technical level, the editing and cinematography are smartly done. The way the clips of real-life football injuries are juxtaposed next to each other seems to give them a whole new meaning. Is it subtle? No. Does it need to be? I don't think so. The findings make it pretty clear. Then, the last few scenes wrap the film up nicely. They can be interpreted in a few different ways, depending on how you feel about the NFL.
All that said, you can see why the film didn’t score any major award wins. At times, Concussion tries a bit too hard to be grand. It also isn't all that memorable. By no means does that make it bad, it’s just not "so good it’ll change the world good", and that’s what it wanted to be.
Concussion has a fair amount to offer casual audiences, and if you're a fan of the sport it's examining, it will have a tremendous impact on you. If you're scared it will ruin the Superbowl, there's no need to worry. It will merely give you some food for thought. That’s more than enough to recommend it. (On Blu-ray, March 3, 2017)
