Its a stylish and modern take on time travel and this is one of the good things about this film. It also paints the act of travelling in time as a little harsher on the body than most. The problem is the plot is fairly predictable, some of it is just silly and doesn't make sense, and the ending is just plain old stupid. There's potential here, it's just a shame they haven't done anything with it.

However, after a routine training mission hits problems, Ashday's Child must save not only himself and his companions but the fabric of time itself. With cause not necessarily occurring before effect, it may be that saving the future will heal the past.
Time travel has always been a fascination for science fiction writers as it opens up so many possibilities. Where most of these use time travel as a method of getting their characters to where they need to be, in Timeshaft it is the time travel itself that provides the story. Bint allows his imagination to construct future and past versions of earth but always the time travel aspect is to the fore, with the plot carefully constructed like a clock so that in the end all the parts fit together perfectly.
This matters because the time travel in Timeshaft is one where the time travel has always taken place; it is not like Back to the Future where Marty's antics in the past then change the future; here the future is the way it is precisely because someone has travelled back in time and changed something. It's a tricky thing to pull off yet Bint seemingly does this with ease.
If you are looking for a good science fiction story with drama and great ideas, you can't go far wrong
