Time Lapse is a sci-fi thriller from 2014 that follows three friends, Finn (Matt O'Leary), Jasper (George Finn), and Callie (Danielle Panabaker), who discover a camera that can predict the future. The trio finds the camera in their neighbor's apartment after he mysteriously disappears. They soon realize that the camera takes pictures 24 hours into the future, at the same time every day.

The friends initially use the camera for their own personal benefit, playing the lottery and making bets based on the camera's predictions. However, the stakes quickly escalate when the camera starts showing them pictures of events that they don't want to happen. They soon realize that they are trapped in a cycle of trying to change the future, while the camera continues to take pictures of them.

As the story unfolds, we see the characters' relationships start to deteriorate, as they each have their own motives for using the camera. Finn, the photographer of the group, becomes obsessed with capturing the perfect picture and ultimately neglects his friendships. Jasper, who struggles with addiction, believes that the camera holds the key to his sobriety. Meanwhile, Callie is torn between her loyalty to her friends and her own moral compass.

The tension of the story builds as the pictures become increasingly disturbing and the friends try to outwit the camera. Along the way, they encounter mysterious figures who seem to know more about the camera's power than they do.

At the heart of Time Lapse is the question of free will - can the characters change their fate or are they destined to fulfill the camera's predictions? We see them struggle with this question as they try to take control of their own lives.

The film is well-executed with strong performances from its leads. O'Leary, Finn, and Panabaker all give nuanced performances, making their characters more than just archetypes. We see Finn's descent into obsession, Jasper's desperation, and Callie's conflicted nature all come to life on screen.

The cinematography is also a standout element of the film - the camera work is tense and atmospheric, giving the audience the feeling that they are watching something sinister unfold.

Overall, Time Lapse is a smart and engaging thriller that keeps the audience guessing until the very end. It raises thought-provoking questions about fate, and how far one would go to change it. The film is a must-see for fans of sci-fi and suspense.

Time Lapse is a 2015 thriller with a runtime of 1 hour and 44 minutes. It has received mostly poor reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 6.5 and a MetaScore of 50.
