Primer (2004)

Option 1Can't Watch?
If the movie poster hasn't loaded, it means you are being blocked by a security service we use. This can happen for a number of reasons.

Click this first

A new tab will open and you'll be prompted to complete a basic security check like a captcha test.

After completing the above Click here to watch the movie

The movie should now either start playing within your browser or begin downloading to your device.

IMPORTANT: Please make sure that the newly opened tab is not an ad popup asking you to download some software or whatever. Close any such popups and don't download any software - those are ads. Nothing is needed to be done by you other than to complete the security check. It's usually a captcha test or simply involves checking a box.

This is a workaround method but has the minor disadvantage that English-language movies with optional subtitles in the normal player will not include subs here.

i very good film! defiantly complex, 100% will be rewatching with a couple of my friends-
i love all the technical gargen thats used, the film doesn’t baby you, it really keeps you on your toes,, looking away for even a moment leaves you having to rewind a handful of times, it demands your full attention; almost mirroring exactly what i imagine aaron and abe are feeling through the latter course of the film. and the dialog is so natural, and the acting is perfect, there were times i felt as if this was completely possible, like listening to the natural way these twos arguments flow alone could convince me it was all real.

and from a more artsy standpoint: despite the low budget, its filmed beautifully- the composition of the scenes are both straightforward and jarring at the same time somehow! never quite, misleading,, but rather some require just a touch more time to take a look and see what they really want you to see. the graniness suits it, and the yellowy shots contrast nicely with the dark greenish blue scenes set in darker places.

Predestination is a far better time travel film.

Great film, not for low iq people, this is sci fi being as realistic as possible given the premise. Upstream Color should be on this site as well. Share Carruth is a genius.

This is my favourite time travel film ever and a testament to what can be achieved with the right people regardless of budget, The directors next film Upstream Colour was fantastic and weird too

Really good. 5 stars. They talk fast so turning on the subtitles might be a good idea.
