Maybe I'm just deaf from standing in front of a SVT for the last 15 years but I couldn't follow the movie past a certain point just from not being able to make out all the mumbling! I'd say just a little past halfway through. Seems like they just start referring to characters and things that have happened like I took an extended bathroom break and just came back to the movie. Someone make a spoiler alert and see if they can make sense of it... Sucks too because I was really into it while I could understand what was going on.

Re: Anyone seen the movie Primer?
You're not alone in not understanding. Apparently you have to be a time theorist with a background in physics to get it the first time. For real, an actual time theorist. That's intense. There was a book made by someone that perfectly explained everything, but I guess the email link to get that book is dead. There are something like 9 separate time lines to follow, so you really have to take like a week to semi-comprehend the movie.Creepyfingers wrote:Maybe I'm just deaf from standing in front of a SVT for the last 15 years but I couldn't follow the movie past a certain point just from not being able to make out all the mumbling!

As far as the mumbling, there are subtitles you can turn on and scripts you can print out to help follow the dialogue.
