Review Summary

A young scientist named Stuart plots a bank robbery using his revolutionary invention: a time-travel device that allows the user to go back 10 minutes in the past. His plan is to go to the bank and withdraw his account, then keep going back in time 10 minutes, and withdraw his account over and over again. Unfortunately, a group of experienced criminals try to rob the bank at the same time, and they end up getting a hold of Stuart's device. It is up to Stuart and Sarah, a cop who's partner was killed by the robbers, to try to go after the robbers and retrieve the time-travel device.
