Exciting Thriller

by jdingman , Aug 26 '04
Pros: suspenseful, exciting
Cons: language, nudity
This movie has made it onto my 'top-thrillers' list because of all the excitement in it. This movie always kept you on your toes and next gave you an expected scene. Every moment was unexpected so that made it so exciting. Ashton Kutcher ...

Surprisingly excellent film

by musicc , Sep 27 '06
Pros: Excellent acting, great plot
Cons: Some unsettling subject matter
Movies dealing with Time travel have generally been interesting to me so I thought the Butterfly effect looked good. Unfortunately I had to wait a while before I could fully see the movie but when I did it was worth it. The film reminded me of Donnie ...

The Butterfly Effect - Karmic Madness

by huntress , Sep 26 '04
Pros: Incredible new aged twist on an old premise - Great acting!
Cons: I had a nightmare afterward!
I viewed this on demand from my local cable company last week and I was blown away. I really was not expecting much. The movie's star, Ashton Kuchner, had not really impressed me during his run on "That 70's Show" but my husband swore I would like it. ...

Great Movie!! I highly recommend watching this!

by askwendyrenee , Jun 09 '08
Pros: good acting, excellent and unique plot
Cons: none for this movie, but I wouldn't recommend the sequel.
If you like science fiction movies that are very complicated and suspenseful, then you will love this movie. You never know what is going to happen next so it keeps you on the edge of your seat. The main character, Evan, played by Ashton Kutcher, has ...

A time travel movie that separates from them all: The Butterfly Effect

by rockergirle , Oct 06 '04
Pros: Very Suspenseful throughout, Ashton at his best! Well done background research
Cons: Definitely not suitable for children! Rated R, due to language, sexual content, and traumatic events.
A movie theme that's been done many times: Time Travel. The Bill and Ted movies (which I find very hilarious), The Time Machine, Time Cop, Timeline... I can't remember the rest but it's been done a lot. This movie, by New Line Home Entertainment, is ...

What Would You Do If You Could Change The Past?

by slimshady71487 , Aug 02 '08
Pros: Great acting, great story, great ending
Cons: None
This is one movie that left me pondering my life in whole. I mean, what would the world be like if I wasn't around? Would people be happier? Would things be better or worse? What would happen to my family and friends? That's what Evan (Ashton Kutcher's ...

For mature viewers who enjoy complex tragic films, not Hollywood entertainment type of movies.

by inphri , Jul 19 '04
Pros: Tightly linked plots. Makes your head spin. Extremely different performance by Ashton.
Cons: DVD menu not very intuitive to navigate. Hard to find subtitles.
I normally do not write a movie review, but after reading the other reviews, I feel that I have to say something from a different perspective. Originally, I intended to avoid talking about the specifics in the movie, and to only discuss the feelings I ...

Eerie Film -- reality gone to FUCK

by pacione , Dec 23 '07
Pros: Brutal. Evil timing
Cons: Too complex for some people.
Ashton Kutcher is an actor normally known for doing comedy films and buddy movies, but this movie opened some real doors for him to do more serious films. This was the only movie of his I really bought and liked. Amy Smart plays an instrumental role ...

What a mind job!

by ninput , Dec 15 '04
Pros: Intelligent, moving, very well acted, good score
Cons: A few plot holes, I thought the ending for the Theatrical Release was much better
I love it when a movie comes out that meets my expectations. Lord of the Rings, Spider Man 2, Signs. Each one I expected to be great, and great they were. But it is infinitely more satisfying when a great film comes seemingly out of nowhere to thrill ...

Cons: Too good of a movie to have any cons ...
The Butterfly Effect is the premise of the chaos theory, which states that everything you do in life has a direct or indirect consequence; for example, a butterfly flapping its wings can result in a huge typhoon halfway across the world. That's the basis ...

Bess and Gruber’s The Butterfly Effect-2004 -QUOTES WO

by artbyjude Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 500, Sep 05 '04
Pros: Director's Cut: a decent story with resolution Theatrical cut: Nothing
Cons: Dialogue, some performance and casting issues
If you happened to see this movie in the theater, then I have to say you MISSED a pretty good movie. Because the theatrical version was a mediocre fantasy thriller. But the Director’s Cut, (available on the DVD) was an extraordinary story. ...

this film is controversial

by talt , Apr 15 '04
Pros: profound learning available if you think about it afterwards
Cons: sound effects and certain parts that need not be that graphic
this is a shock to me in both ways. firstly, at how strong the sound effects were and scared me a bit esp when he returned to his blacked out days. secondly, this film is graphical and shocking in a profound way. Apart from objectively reflecting ...

Emerging From the Cocoon

by Carrathon , Jul 05 '08
Pros: Acting, fresh approach to old concept
Cons: Depiction of cruelty to animals
The enigmatic title of this 2004 film is explained with an epigram before the opening credits, in which an old proverb is cited, referring to how the simple movement of a butterfly’s wings can cause a typhoon halfway around the world. Basically, the ...

Pros:
Cons:
At some point, everyone looks back at some event in their life and wonders how things would have been different if they have fixed a few mistakes. What if you could not buy a car that turned out to be a lemon? What if you hadn’t fumbled when asking ...

So many contradictions, so well displayed.

by basedonthebook , Jul 09 '04
Pros: Smart, suspenseful without being insanely graphic, well-put-together.
Cons: Somewhat difficult to wrap your mind around, holes in the theory.
If you're like me, thinking about moving around in time and changing the past fills you with nothing but headaches and dread. This film shows why this is so. Although it hardly answers the contradictions which so often surround changing the past, it ...
