Opinion

The film is a true work of art, of those that you see and with the end you get the hair on end because of the great impression caused.

The plot is excellent, well developed and carried out. The actors' performance is phenomenal, each character has his own story, you can connect with them, see what they feel and even feel bad for the misfortunes that happen to them. We can appreciate the different personalities they come to possess in different alternative futures, feeling very realistically. All come to possess a degree of complexity, have a deep history because of their sad lives. Some are more emphatic than others, but it's the least that makes you feel forced.

The cast is spectacular, featuring Ashton Kutcher who has incredible adaptability. It feels all very light with good taste. Loving and friendship relationships happen in a natural way, making it not become tiring or unpleasant.

The film is not predictable at all, you are surprised during the whole film and as it advances we get to know our protagonist Evan. There come moments when you think you've managed to make everyone around you happy PUM! tragedy...

I loved the ending and it made me cry like a jeva (women). It's kind of beautiful and tragic at the same time, it's the outcome for which Evan struggles throughout the film, somehow being left with no alternative. It makes you think in an incredible way, it's fascinating.

I recommend the film, it is very entertaining and enjoyable to the end. I recommend them to see and reflect, it leaves you with many doubts about the world in which we exist in a splendid way.

Philosophical analysis

The whole plot of the film revolves around Chaos Theory, specifically in the Butterfly Effect, which could be summarized as follows:"Every action, no matter how small, will sooner or later affect your future".

Which gives you food for thought about how you're going to decide what actions you're going to take, will they benefit me or affect others? Is it really okay what I'm about to do?During the course of the film, the young man Evan takes action very quickly and does not meditate very well on what he is going to do, resulting in tragedies. Some, to say the least, are more or less avoidable.

We are also presented with phrases that contain great meaning:

«You can't change what someone is without destroying what they were.»

«—You know? I thought you should know.
— To know what?
—That you were once happy with me.»

«It has been said that something as small as the fluttering of a butterfly can ultimately cause a typhoon on the other side of the world."»

There are too many, but I leave it to you to look for them, my friend...
