Long-time readers – those hypothetical, long-time readers – may remember Destination Day, my short film about a man who travels back in time to change his past, only to run into the woman who made him want to change his past in the first place.
(And no, it’s not possible to talk about time travel plots without tying sentences in knots or giving yourself a headache.)
Well, Destination Day recently screened at the Boston Sci-Fi Film Festival. And although I couldn’t be there to see it myself, some people who were there have been kind enough to post reviews. Here, in the tradition of Hollywood-style quote mining, are the slightly edited critical reactions:
“This is another Australian entry… The ending of this one pretty much makes it too.”
Film Forager“* * ¾ (out of four)… The opening hook…is neat… It finishes on a visual gag that’s clever.”
Jay’s Movie Blog“Tim (Richard Pappas) travels back in time… references Perth’s Destination Day … No one … in the future … Have no interest… Rating (4.9)” (out of 10, I think)

“No one in the future have no interest.” That one’s going on the poster!
Now, go read the originals and see if you can come up with your own interpretation.
