You think, you can find flaws in any time-travel movie script, specially when the story has people meeting their former/future selves. In this one, you just have to suspend your own beliefs about what you think you know about time travel and enjoy the story for what it is. The audience is given a small, yet overriding, explanation that it is all fuzzy until things happen; sort of like many probabilities. Quite a unique story and unlike many modern science fiction, this movie's storyline is the kicker. Yes, there are guns, explosions, etc but that's not why the storytelling is good, it is the plot and how it is presented. Acting is quite good and  Joseph Gordon-Levitt does a decent job of presenting a young Bruce Willis. The camera-work is superb. This shows that you can have artsy shots in a sci-fi flick. My Rating: 7.5
