Second sequel to the 2004 Ashton Kutcher time-travel flick has this guy tripping into the past and violating The Rules (don’t do anything that will alter your own present) to prevent a girlfriend’s murder and ending up creating a serial killer and worsening his own present with each “jump.” Plus the police think he’s the killer. Pro: Ashton-free; some guy named Chris Carmack does the honors here. And I didn’t see the ending twist coming. Con: the acting’s lame and it’s fairly gory. Heads get bashed, fingers get severed, torsos get slashed, necks get slit. Overall not bad if your expectations are low.
