I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

Yo, there's no way for me to review this film without saying, take your *insert ethnicity + "ass" here* to see this film,like now. You have to see it in order to know what you're really messing with.

Ever find yourself watching a really bad movie with no script or character development, that deteriorates to nothing more than shootings, car chases and explosions? That is "Retroactive" only much worse, because the viewer is forced to endure the same shootings, car chases, and explosions, over and over. If you enjoy sci-fi, avoid this for sure. If you enjoy interesting characters and a clever plot, avoid this for sure. If you don't like wasting an hour and a half of your time, avoid this for sure. If on the other hand you like endless shootings, car chases, and explosions, then "Retroactive" is your movie. All others should avoid "Retroactive" like you would a rabid dog. - MERK

I just can't get over how awful this movie is. Something that makes a good movie is good acting and good acting requires a good script and good writing and this movie has NONE OF ANY OF IT.This thing is so full of plot holes you could turn a diesel truck around in them. They take every HORRIBLE cliché you can imagine and make them worse. One of my favorite ones? She knocks Frank (Belushi) down and instead of picking up her gun and killing him (He's just murdered several people), she runs and she's A POLICE OFFICER? This is writing at it's absolute WORST!Just plain bad.I'd love to go into a lot of detail, but this movie is so god awful it really isn't worth to much effort. It reminds me of the A-Team. One million bullets spent but the bad guy never gets hit. The woman knows it's going to happen yet REFUSES to shoot Frank when she can. EVERY SINGLE TIME.Belushi's bad guy is so over the top horribly acted that it makes you want to pull a Stewie and go track him down just so you can knock him on his butt. AND besides, how is it that EVERY SINGLE TIME FRANK hits what he aims at, but NO ONE ELSE DOES?It reminds me of how awful The Butterfly Effect was with the same sort of time travel idea but everything that can go wrong does so and stupidly so.And at what point in time are we going to stop showing cars blowing up like this? They DON'T!Besides, don't buy into any of the professional writers on here talking this movie up. They've sold their souls for a few bucks to push up a product that is by any standards garbage.

Honestly, I have seen better film growing on my teeth. You might find this movie entertaining if you are under the age of 12 or one of the two people on the planet that think that Jim Belushi is the best actors ever. The fine people who made this movie probably had a few hundred dollars, a borrowed camera and a weekend to kill in the desert after they showed up a week late to Burning Man. I personally am a fan of sci-fi and "shoot-em-up" action John Woo style movies, but this took the plot to Waterworld, the action of TankGirl, and the dialogue of New York Minuite. Its sad to say that Belushi doing "Joe Somebody" was a step UP.Overall... BOO!

A cross between "time machine"(at a small range) "the groundhog day" and a road movie,"Retroactive " is not to be taken seriously(!).Belushi's acting verges on a cartoon villain:he looks like Tweety Pie's Sylvester.There's some black humor,mainly in the first part;it tends to become repetitive after a while. Anyway the place where Brian works is two-bit sci-fi and the scientist's dumb-founded looks are priceless.So is Belushi's big bad wolf swagger.But the prize goes to M.Emmet Walsh's Sam:"don't do it here ,please,take'em to the desert!" "Retroactive" has a couldn't-care- less side which is quite entertaining.But if one seeks meaning and brain stuff,one must move on.
