I don’t think this should have been a movie. It would have been a better TV show. Come to think of it; it reminds me a lot of an episode from the X-Files—Pusher, season 3, episode 17. If you watch the extra scene in the credits, then it’s not too late. It might still be a TV show.
The story has an interesting, although unoriginal, premise. And the pacing is really tight. This movie moves along rapidly, but it doesn’t feel disjointed. It pretty much follows the story of one character so it’s easy to keep track of things even though it’s impossible to know exactly what’s real and what isn’t. I’m sorry; vagueness is unavoidable since I don’t want to spoil anything major.

Ultimately, I would recommend waiting for this movie to stream. I’m sure it won’t be long in the theaters.
Grade: C-
About The Peetimes: This is a short movie, but I managed to find 3 Peetimes. If you can make it, I recommend the 3rd Peetime. It’s a long montage of scenes you have already seen, just from another point of view.
There are extra scenes during, or after, the end credits of Hypnotic.
What people are saying
about the RunPee app.
Brilliant idea with great information
I’ve been using RunPee for a few years now and it’s basically a requirement of going to the movies for me. The best part of course are the “pee times” that give you cues, synopses and times for when you can pee without missing the most important parts of the movie. There is also information about the credits- length, extras and if there are any extra scenes at the wayyy end. Super helpful to just know that it is or isn’t worth staying. There is a timer function that will buzz your phone when it’s a good time to pee. I also appreciate that the app is very conscientious about it being an app you use in a theater- dark background, all silent alarms etc. I will always enjoy the experience of the theater even if I could watch things at home- but I’ve even used it at home to check for things like after credit scenes or other information too.
