Sometimes in the right situation, films about time travel can work. Other times, such as this, they make no sense whatsoever and turn would could possibly be quite a substantial thriller into a bit of a joke. Cuba Gooding (again) this time stars as an investigate reporter who is feeling the strain of a crumbling marriage, and has turned to another woman for support. Tragically he finds that she has been murdered soon after they get together. As he arrives at her home he spots the killer and attempts to chase him but falls over in the road. The killer however has dropped his book, which turns out to be his journal where he writes about all his murderous deeds. He he has also curiously written about the next 2 murders that are to happen but manages to retrieve the book before Gooding can get it to the police. The eerie thing is that the murders are written about in detail before they are committed, leading Gooding to believe that the killer is somehow, inexplicably involved in some sort of time travel.
And so it continues. It's all very confusing and really I think it would of been much more receptive as a straightforward serial killer film.
