Watched this movie yesterday afternoon. Don't have time for a full comment, but I will revisit this thread.
Short version--I don't get why this wasn't a much bigger box office success. Well-done all around. One caution--if one is the type of viewer that insists on analyzing every element involved in a time travel story, don't bother. The mechanism is explained, but how it actually works is unimportant.
Actually, having watched and read many stories about time travel, I've come to the conclusion that none of them stand up to rigorous analysis. There is always a logical flaw somewhere, no matter how it is portrayed. So instead of nitpicking them for inconsistencies, I just "go with the flow". Only way to remain sane regarding time travel, really.
For those who want to "show off" their subwoofer(s), the Blu-ray will do the trick. Found a whole new set of rattles to tamp down after watching this movie. There must be some pretty serious infrasonic material because I could hear the rattles even when I could not hear the bass (though I could certainly feel it--thanks SVS ).
