If you were to summarise this film briefly, then wow, a great premise and a really interesting idea.
Sadly it remains just that an idea, and one that's disjointed at best. It starts well with a two graffiti 'writers' with a noble cause picking the wrong victim. What type of film is this? A tense, nerve shredding thriller? - well there are absolutely zero scares; a twisting tale of mystery - sadly no. There's is none. Just a bad dude. This could have been better if he'd simply been misunderstood. The only mystery is what is happening with time, which seems to pass without explanation.
For this type of film to work, characters need to be at least have some sense. But characters come and go with no real protagonist, so it is very difficult to empathise with any of them, or buy-into the film at all. Common sense fails to prevail.
There is little continuity between sections of film and you need to look for clues to help re-orientate to yourself, such as "I haven't seen for ages" "I have been busy, my girlfriend's 7 months pregnant!" Oh so, 7 months have passed!
No one wonder the police cannot join on the dots on this one because it is very difficult for the viewer to as well.
