The Butterfly Effect and the Butterfly Effect 2

Having just watched the first two Butterfly effect movies, I can see that they are both with their holes and forgot all about the black outs from the first one.

The story of the first one is a man who suffers blackouts and memory loss as a child is told to write a journal. He has some very dramatic events in his live and manages to blackout during these events. During a date his date asks for him to read from his journal and he realises he has the ability to go back although believes it was only a dream. He tries again and burns himself only to have the scar when he awakes. The movie is good till about half way where he goes back and stabs his hands to prove to someone he has a connection to Jesus. This is forgetting the whole butterfly effect. If a young boy would have cut his hands like that his life would have been different.

The way I believe the above could be possible though is because they already were planning to see a doctor over the picture he drew, they may have managed to live the life the same way. But even going to the hospital and calling his mother up would probably have changed something.

The second movie was a lot better the second time around but still lacks something that the first had. The start of the second movie reminds me some how of a Final Destination movie. The blood to make the 2 in The Butter Fly Effect 2 logo was very comedy horror. The second movie is about a guy who gets to use the ability to see how his life would be if he would have had his girlfriend or made deals at work. The movies it makes everyone life have something very wrong. I would recommend the movies as I enjoyed them.
