This 86-minute New Zealand comedy offers a unique take on time travel, filled with dry humor and a plot that spirals into delightful chaos. With a bracelet that allows limited time travel, our protagonist, John, finds himself in a loop of clones, crime, and comedic misadventures.In this episode, we explore the film's humorous take on time travel mechanics, the cultural nuances of New Zealand comedy, and the complexities of tracking multiple versions of the same character. Desmond attempts to unravel the tangled web of timelines, while Scott contemplates the film's thematic elements, including the recurring motif of "growing nuts."Join the conversation as we discuss the film's strengths and weaknesses, from its low-budget charm to its sometimes confusing narrative.
