What if you could reach back into time and change the one event that forever altered your life? Would you do it? And what would it be?

All his life, police officer John Sullivan (Jim Caviezel) has been haunted by one tragic event. When a once-in-a-lifetime phenomenon of nature opens a mysterious channel to the past, John is stunned to discover that he is able to communicate with his dad Frank (Dennis Quaid) who`s been dead for 30 years. But by changing the past, they set in motion a string of brutal, unsolved murders, with John`s mother, and Frank`s wife, the next victim. Racing against time, the son and father must now find a way to stop the crime that could destroy the future for both of them.

Your Opinions and Comments

8 / 10
A nice super-natural thriller about the power of love and of ham radio, with an impressive performance by Caviezel (and even Quaid, occasionally).
The video transfer is very good. There are no compression signs to be seen and the visuals are quite pleasing.
The DD 5.1 soundtrack is very good. The surrounds are nicely used.
The menus are all animated with sound.
The extras include a commentary, 4 deleted scenes, a very interesting behind the scenes look, and a multi angle opening scene feature.
Bottom line - a good movie with some nice visuals, and well thought off story.
