A Close Shave (2021) takes a twisty turn into time travel with a unique blend of sci-fi and suspense. The film opens with this guy, late at night, lost in his digital world, when a stranger shows up—definitely adds to the eerie atmosphere. The pacing has a nice rhythm; it lures you in gradually, building tension as the plot unfolds. The practical effects have this raw quality that feels authentic, giving it a grounding in a way that CGI often misses. Performances are solid, particularly the lead, who carries that sense of curiosity and dread well. The themes of choice and consequence linger in your mind afterward, making it more than just a simple jaunt through time. It's got a distinct vibe.
