Besides the comedy, _River_ feels like a more polished version of _Beyond the Infinite Two Minutes_ (_BTITM_) in every aspect. It’s still humorous, but just lacks the audible laughs _BTITM_ had. Even though they’re similar in concept, _River_ has an entire area stuck in this time paradox β€” much like a Bermuda Triangle for its 96-minute run time. _River_ is smartly written, has a fantastic cast, and is beautifully filmed. **Full review:** https://bit.ly/2imeloop
