SYNCHRONIC

BBFC advice: TBA

Fatal drug abuse, the horrors of being a big-city paramedic, the pressure of parenting a teenager, terminal illness and time travel!

It is as if Justin Benson and Aaron Moorhead have chucked a bunch of interesting ideas into a bowl, taken a whisk and seen what they serve up.

Actually, I do them a disservice. All of these elements are present during Synchronic but I am pleased to report that the result is unexpectedly impressive.

It stars Anthony Mackie and Jamie Dornan as New Orleans paramedics and long-time best friends who are called to a series of bizarre, gruesome deaths.

Amid eerie music, they go from scene to scene, finding people who have either been killed or suffered perplexing injuries.

The clues at the scene are packets of a legal designer drug called Synchronism which the pair initially believe is a hallucinogenic.

But when his partner's elder daughter disappears Mackie's character finds out the truth and uses it to try to find her.

I thought Mackie was wasted in Outside The Wire earlier this month but he proves here what he can do with a much deeper storyline.

As the tangents fire off from all angles, his character finds himself in the role of both hero and victim in two gradually intertwining narratives.

Meanwhile, Dornan proves, if we didn't know already, that there is so much more to him than Christian Gray,

Indeed, his dishevelled under-pressure dad of a missing daughter is unrecognisable from the suave businessman.

But what really stands out here is an ambitious script by Justin Benson which really comes off.

Reasons to watch: Ambitious concept which really comes off

Reasons to avoid: Might be a tad overcomplicated for some

Laughs: None

Jumps: One

Vomit: Yes

Nudity: None

Overall rating: 8.5/10

Did you know? In common with his character, Steve, Anthony Mackie is from New Orleans where, as a 13-year-old, he spent the summer working on roofs with his father. At the end of the summer, Mackie’s father asked if he wanted to spend the rest of his life doing manual labour, and Mackie answered no.

The final word. Alan Moorhead: "Basically, there's something that I didn't know about at all called designer synthetic analogue drugs, which are over-the-counter drugs. You can buy them at a head shop. I do not recommend this. I've never done it, but also there's a good reason I do not recommend this. That's the whole point of Synchronic."
