OK, synopsis, meteorite {not meteor} hits the ground in an American town where a house party is about to take place. A bloke arrives back to see his girlfriend take place in a fencing competition and for some odd reason then sticks his tongue down the throat of the girl who just beat his girlfriend, she is obviously hacked off, forward to party. The meteorite has caused a time shift where the party goers have doubles who are 15 minutes behind, at each light flicker the doubles catch up. I have given it two stars for the idea, this is a film which is a cluster... it is not scifi, not horror, maybe a frat house movie but just has goes nowhere, at times we are hinted at a back story which might have saved the movie but this is never developed. Having Natalie Hall get her kit off does not even save this movie.

The movie definitely has a interesting and unique premise, the idea of self at each instance of time and meeting oneself from a different moment and not knowing what to do, and wondering if you're friend or foe to yourself. I think the idea of this movie is ingenious. The complexity becomes time. This is where most movies don't deliver, they treat time linearly, but it runs multi dimensionally, where you exist now and you that happened 15 minutes ago exists now also. The idea of dimensional collision, similarly like movie "Coherence" is so grasping that the execution becomes the key. It's a scary thought and enchanting that you could fix your mistakes, I just find it hard to understand the merge of these worlds, because these planes collide, what is truly left? So without giving too much away watch it and love it.

One extra star just for not being another found footage teen flick, this was surprisingly better than I expected. The only problem was that it seemed everything needed just one more good pass. Everything comes off as a little uneven, but I think it ends up successful. The actors are competent for their age which probably means they're all older than their characters, but some like Logan Miller's "Teddy" are muted, not given quite enough from the script. He could has sunk his teeth into a better script. The script is not quite funny enough where it needs to be, but could have been with one more pass. Not quite enough explanation is given for the cause, but the story concept actually turns out good. Most of the horror comes from the characters, especially one story line, and that serves the movie. Pacing is a problem for the film, you come out of a funny or scary scene, and then the movie hits the breaks. Too many red herrings for the script to support. I think if the director had gone through one more edit, one more script revision, and the better actors given a little more meat on their plates, this would have been great. It even had a good twist that was subtle but effective.

If you expect your average teen party gone wrong movie, then you are in for a surprise (and a pleasant one in my opinion).Although the movie borrows forms and cinematic elements from horror sci-fi movies, it goes way beyond that. Yes you will find here the hot male and female protagonists, the funny ones that act as a tension release. But what is interesting is that "Plus One" characters are not just some beautiful people screaming for their lives (going always to the wrong direction).The people involved are complicated forced to deal with them selves and the choices they make in life.To me the movie is more of an allegoric tale about growing up, maturing, evolving, packed in a film genre that most of the time has nothing but chills to offer. It is rarely that after a horror movie you are left thinking and this is one of those cases. Whether viewers will appreciate this or not remains to be seen. Hopefully they will.
