The Traveler (2010)
Simply Awful...
This is a truly bad movie, and not in a good way... Plot is virtually non-existent. Setting makes no sense other than to provide a "spooky" backdrop for what is supposed to be a supernatural thriller. (dark-and-rainy-night cliché, cars from the 60's, 70's, 80's, police station house that looks as if it were abandoned in the 60's, phones that died before Hoover...) You'll know (or guess) the entire story within the first several minutes and the rest is just nonsense. This is one movie I truly wish that I'd never watched. A complete waste of time.
There are several decent actors, Val Kilmer not getting the chance to be one of them however. The "twist" at the end is weak, unearned, and doesn't even start to make up for a really insipid story line. Which, by the way, could be told in less than a minute in 5 or 6 sentences. The additional hour and 29 minutes of fill just aren't that interesting.
