Here is the simple-taken story of this simply-perfect movie. I’m sure that after read this you’ll get impressed and go to a DVD store in a hurry. =)
Evan Treborn (Ashton Kutcher) is a troubled man who suffered blackouts as a child. When he discovered a way to travel back into the body of his past self, his time trips start to cause negative results on his present. As he uses his powers to try to fix his past and present, the effect escalates, creating alternate realities, and many of which are worse than the past that he is trying to change.
The Butterfly Effect is a terrific thriller that keeps you on the edge of your seat. The previews looked very intense and the whole film is pretty much like that. It held onto the audience right at the start and it didn’t let go until the end. The plot is nothing new but the execution was very nice. It offers a bunch of interesting and unpredictable twists so it’s hard to see where things are going.
And between this complicated time travelling, Evan finally found out his true love. And there’s no one other but his bestfriend, Kayleigh (Amy Smart). His struggle to try to save the girl that he loves and his nearest people makes us get touched during the whole film.
GOSH.
This is THE BEST movie i’ve EVER seen!! And Ashton Kutcher plays it as GREAT. This is the one and only movie that could make me cry alone in the midnight like a 3-year-old girl loses her mom – well, after that TITANICly things. Even this story is more tragic than Titanic. And it could simply make us feel the same. It’s not about a dramatic film that makes you affected and then some little tears show up in your eyes. It makes me EXPLODE thousands of tears out [if the tears are countable nouns].
I swear in the name of God, YOU HAVE TO WATCH THIS MOVIE – and IMMEDIATELY.

Favourite Quote
Evan : [reading aloud as he writes a note]
“If any one find this, it means my plan didn’t work and I’m already dead. But if I can somehow go back to the beginning of all of this, I might be able to save her.”

This movie is one of my favourites! I’m watching this movie as I type. I’m at the part when he just woke up from a blackout in Kayleigh’s dorm room for the first time.
I think the ending is so sad but I’m happy how it ended.
