The story isn't perfect, or rather it is perfectly contrived. The whole film is based upon two people not meeting. There are so many phone calls at just the wrong time, or being in the right place at the wrong time. There are so many near misses, it takes a bit of believability away from it. The other problem was that with all the flip flops between present and the past that it is hard to remember where you are, and the lack of any indicator how long ago the past was until late in the movie, the time frame was indistinguishable.

For all of the problems the movie had, it was a great ride. It was so implausible, yet so entertaining that I was able to forgive many of its shortcomings. The performances are all good, the plotting was tightly written, and above all, I found the characters to be believable. I was pleasantly surprised at how good this move was.
