Zombie movies, heist pictures, underdog sports films - I forgot to mention I also dig time travel movies. "Beyond the Infinite Two Minutes" is a low budget Japanese time travel mind bender which will quickly confuse you and bring you a whole lot of joy in a very short span. With a run time of only 70 minutes, this head trip flies by and doesn't overstay it's welcome by even a few minutes. What's it all about? Kato (Kazunari Tosa) discovers his TV and the one in the restaurant below his apartment (where he works) have suddenly been connected by a two minute time differential; the one in the restaurant is in the future and the one in his apartment is in the past (depending where you are - it gets tricky, quickly!). There is a lot that happens in this one shot film and your head will spin. You will also laugh. Plus there is a love story! All in 70 minutes! In the future, catch this little gem at your local rep cinema or on streaming services when you get a chance - it's worth your time and you won't look back (see what I did there - always time for a little humour).
