“Redux Redux” is a time travel movie, but it’s really not interested in the specifics of such science fiction. The details of adventuring are fairly limited, which might drive some viewers bananas, but thankfully there’s an effort from writer/directors Kevin and Matthew McManus (“The Block Island Sound”) to give this low-budget endeavor a real run of suspense that carries throughout the entire viewing experience. Characterization is the primary focus here, with the tale using the ways of magical travel to boost a story of grief that’s slipped into madness. There’s energy to the picture, along with fine performances and plenty of enigmatic events to keep things interesting, and the helmers are dedicated to crafting an exciting effort. “Redux Redux” really shines at times, using time travel to inspire some twisted turns of plot and a few surprises, staying heated in a way that helps to hold back dozens of questions raised by the time the end credits arrive.
