Interesting premise but confusing

I'm usually a huge fan of time travel type stories, especially when it has a sort of "oldie" vibe — and certainly, at the start, I really liked how the story was playing out. I loved both timelines and how they interacted with each other, and I also really liked all the characters and their backstories, and how those were tied together.

As the movie went on, however, I definitely just felt like it lost me. There were more characters that I didn't care much about, the three boys started blurring into one another and doing things for no reason, and overall I just thought the movie became "jack of all trades, master of none."
