In the movies, when it comes to the likes of time travel, it always seems that heading forward into the future is about 10 times more successful than it is going back into the past._____ This, of course, makes some sense since the future isn't set yet. (Unless you believe in fate) So, it can, sort of, be tampered with or altered to some degree._____ But, on the otherhand, mucking around with the past and events that have already taken place is a lot like skating on extremely thin ice._____ For the most part I found The Butterfly Effect to be way too disjointed in its format to be seriously considered really good entertainment. (What an editing nightmare this film must have been)_____ But, I do give the director lots of credit for a darn good effort at trying to convince me that travelling into the past was, indeed, plausible._____ But since the main character came from such a dysfunctional background to begin with there was absolutely no way that he was ever going to remedy things no matter how many attempts he made at tinkering with the wrongs that took place in the past, desperately trying to make them right.
