[R]ewinding any given moment and still be able 
to remember what never happened after all. No bullshit 'pause' or 
'fast-forward' or any of those other options. Until the last moment of 
your living conscious being intact, you could undo and do retakes. E.g. 
punch someone in the middle of a conversation to see how they would 
react, but not have to deal with the consequences; jump off a cliff 
and you could still undo the (attempted) suicide as long as you do it 
before you hit the ground. Miscalculate by a fraction of a second, and 
you cannot go back.
Also, no 'reliving memories' -- except to the
 extent that your fallible human memory can re-create the moments 
you've already lived through. 'What you remember becomes what happened' 
quite literally.
[W]henever you decide
 to 'revisit a memory' it will change the course of events to an 
unpredictable degree, because of the incredible number of variables and 
you will never be the same person stepping in the same river.

Here's my review of the movie "Enter the Void". I'm putting it here because I don't have a "cloud" account for text snippets.
Just watched the movie "Enter the Void" and... People call that disturbing? It's just a simplistic religious concept painfully dragged across the unnecessarily long duration of the film, without of course wasting the viewer's time slowly zooming into every flashing light you can find, and innumerable frustrating fly-bys over Tokio at night. The story/plot was extremely predictable and the characters hard to empathize with, being mostly morons. The only character remotely likable was "Alex", who's also a ridiculous new age junkie and therefore not really worthy of praise. At least every 3 minutes into the movie, I would say out loud "I get it, you've demonstrated the concept, please move on!", the overwhelming timespans spent focusing on every concept insult the viewer's intelligence and simply bore. If I had to describe this film with three words, these words would be: monotonous, pointless, irrelevant.
5/10 only watch if you're extremely high.
Pros: T&A throughout the film.
Cons: everything else.
