Review of movie that I didn't see all the way through

Primer (2004)
I started watching about halfway through. If I'd just been flipping around I would've instantly recognized it an IFC movie. I don't mean a movie made by IFC, though it might've been. I just mean it has that look. I've seen a lot of movies on IFC, some good, some bad; I'll watch any channel that plays uncut movies without commercials.

It's the typical IFC movie except it's about time travel. Actually, it's got a pretty good story, but here's where it falls apart. The dialogue, which is unspectacular, and the two main actors, who are fine but just not interesting to watch.

Would I watch it again from the beginning? Sure. But there's a lot of things I'd watch.
