I have watched it twice.

I still have no idea if that timeline is close to correct or completely wrong. I still don't get exactly what the end of the movie means. I highly suspect the movie's story doesn't end at the end of the movie, but I have no way to be certain. I still don't know if a couple of people actually died.

Or, in other words, I only watched it twice. I have no idea what the story is.
