ARQ (2016) review

I’m a sucker for time loops. What I like here is that every reset gives me new pieces of information, and the plot thickens every time as it unfolds. It never feels like I’m simply watching the same events again because something I learned in the previous loop changes how I look at the next one. That is what keeps the time loop fun for me. Every reset feels like another chance to solve the puzzle instead of just repeating the gimmick. Great introduction to the stakes and the deceptions. The film quickly gives me enough information to understand the danger, then slowly starts making me question who is telling the truth and what everyone actually wants. Really nice. Very unpredictable twists and turns. Just when I think I finally understand what is happening, another reveal changes the direction again. Watched on Netflix.
