i find this film to be an interesting study in cause and effect but little more than that . the basic plot follow the life of a handful of people and how their action ( deliberate and otherwise ) effect the life of the others . the film premise hold great promise but i feel it fail to deliver on it promise . too much time be spend tell the audience about chaos theory and too little time actually show it . a a result and i never get a true feel for any of the character and never make a good connection with them emotionally . by the end of the movie and i have a so what attitude about all of them . a strong direction in character development would have make this movie great and but a it stand it be merely so so .
