But, it turns out that, contrary to all expectations, Gwendolyn is the one who has the gene - a gene that allows her to time travel. Her cousin, Charlotte, supposedly has a gene that makes her special and the family fawn over her. The story is about Gwendolyn who is in her own words "the black sheep" or runt of the family. I really enjoyed this movie! It is the start to the Ruby Red trilogy (books by Kerstin Gier) and it succeeds in wetting one's appetite for the next one - Sapphire Blue. the way the actors speak, act and behave combined with those poor techniques makes me so angry. it may be caused by the story itself, but the task of techniques and effects in movie-making should be used to smoothen failures and to put highlights on strong elements. main character tough but clumsy and by accident spills drinks over lover-boy. main character mistaken for waitress at snobby party. bad acting, as sadly common for German acting. i am German, but i can not stand the way German movies try to copy American stylistic elements and fail miserably or use worn out ones. after 2 shots it was clear: German production. 6 minutes into the movie and i kinda get annoyed. what i want to talk about is the acting, camera, effects etc. I want to skip rating the story because one may like it or not.
