Inquiry about Maddox


So in his encounter with Rya in '88, she breaks his leg. He then walks with a limp the rest of the movie. Why even write that in. It made no difference in the movie or its outcome. Just curious.

I thought this was a good movie. Netflix sometimes will have a gem. Sometimes........

Because she says, "Sorry about your partner." She means murdering him, but it lets us think she means maiming him.

When she say "your partner" I'm pretty sure she's talking about his wife, as she was talking about her daughter being born. Phrasing it like that is to add shock when we see the scene when the wife dies, but I actually instantly thought she was meaning his wife because the phrasing was weird.

It's just a detail. It's not a plot detail, but it adds consistency to what you're watching, why does it bother you?
It's definitely a very minor detail, true that doesn't make a difference, but it's not incoherent.

I'm trying to figure out something else from this movie, so I'll use this chance with you ;D
Why does the killed use these injection tech instead of just killing the targets in a "normal" way? The real important tech here is the time travelling, so what's up with the injections? I don't get it :/
