Storyline

After a night out of partying and left behind by her friends, Ava wakes up and sneaks back home only to find that she's already safe in bed. But that's not Ava - it's someone who looks just like her. A time-traveling fugitive from the future has jumped back in time and stolen the teenager's body, her identity, and her life. What's more - she's not alone. There are others, hiding in the past, secretly living among us, plotting to alter the future. Without her body, Ava is a virtual ghost, silent and invisible to the world. And, so far as she knows, she's the only one who can stop them and put the timeline back on course.

Quotes

[first lines]
Future Seattle: [narrating] Seven billion people were killed in the last Great War. Not all at once, though. It takes time to wipe out an entire species. We are the survivors. Some say we were the lucky ones. But when I was a kid, my mother used to tell me stories about what life was like back then, before the radiation, before the plague, before the drought. At first, I didn't believe her. It all sounded too good to be true, like some sort of crazy fairy tale that spun horribly out of control. Now...

User Reviews

Would be best to find something else on a Sunday night

Truth be told, some parts of the movie had some interest levels, but the quality of acting and random clichés just made it seem cheap. When your inner voice says "it's cheap" you kind of tune out, but I persisted with it. Luckily for me, I was doing some work while watching otherwise I would have wanted my time refunded!

Netflix recommends a lot of movies when they are newly released, but yeah - viewer be warned. The ending is just the kick to the nether regions you'd expect for putting up with the whole thing. The movie just takes a whole turn south the first time "Cabal" is mentioned.
