Theres films which do Time Travel and then there are those who do it in a way which is baffling for our mostly linear brains. After watching Men in Black 3 I thought it was worth pointing to the real smart time traveling films.
- Back to the Future
- Donnie Darko
- Frequently asked questions about Time Travel
- Primer
- Time Crimes
- Triangle
- Time travelers wife
- 12 Monkeys
- Sourcecode
- Looper (yes I know this isnt’ out yet but it looks incredible)

Also try “Somewhere In Time” with Christopher Reeve; subtle, devastating and a gorgeous score
i’ve just watched Primer after reading your post. Clever film, very analytical!
