Synchronic (2019)
6/10
interesting premise

Warning: Spoilers
Steve Denube (Anthony Mackie) and Dennis Dannelly (Jamie Dornan) are best friends and paramedic partners. Dennis is married to Tara (Katie Aselton) and Brianna (Ally Ioannides) is their daughter. Steve is diagnosed with terminal cancer. The paramedics have been called to some strange deaths which involve a new synthetic drug named Synchronic. Steve goes to buy up the drug supply and discovers that it has usual temporal effects.

This has an interesting premise. It should reveal itself in a more organic flow. The story telling is a bit too messy and I am a little uncertain about the rules of this world. Also, Brianna's story is a bit muddled. This needs more clarity and more time developing the characters. It needs some better writing beyond the interesting premise.
