Before you choose
What kind of time-travel story is this?
Time travel is an important premise, with limited sustained exploration. This assessment is provisional.
A borderline case: the temporal interpretation remains disputed. The mechanism is classified as Unknown.
Why the archive makes this assessment (spoilers)
Retain provisional 6/10. Ian is killed each day by the Harvesters and wakes in a different life without memory of the previous one. Reviews explicitly say he does not repeat days, so the reset is a reality-rewriting device whose temporal status remains ambiguous.
Ian dies and enters different existences; the sources establish repeated deaths but not clearly a resetting chronological interval.

How Titan works
Titan combines the archive’s quality, audience and legacy base with the significance of time travel. It is an index, not a score out of 100, and is distinct from the FMV archive’s scoring model.
Titan = base × [0.20 + 0.80 × (time-travel score ÷ 10)²]
This film: 58.95 base × 48.8% weighting.
Partial inputs flag incomplete source metadata. Provisional weighting flags a time-travel assessment that remains uncertain; it receives no additional confidence penalty.
