It was prettty great tbh. I remember thinking about things that happened a lot after finishing it. Wasn't quite sure I was missing something or it just wasn't explained well enough about certain stuff. Really loved that movie though, should definitely watch it again.

EDIT: I see you haven't finished it yet, keep going. It gets even more strange at the end.

Its a good film but theres something very sloppy about the way its written, cant quite put my finger on it.

Like for example the rest of it is fair enough. But how can she give birth to herself? Theres literally no basis for this unless Im missing something?

Thats about the only thing they didnt even try to explain

I like the first 3/4ths of it a lot, but then it gets really stupid real quick.

The fact that she has two sets of reproductive organs doesn't appear to be anything to do with a time paradox. Seems like a genetic quirk they didn't quite explain, that's what I feel is slightly off and sloppy about the script

lol I know what a hermaphrodite is, but thats not explained at any point in the movie and even if it were, it has nothing to do with a time paradox that I can tell.

Good movie but def some plot holes

It doesn't really need to be explained if you already understand what a hermaphrodite is. But yes, it makes about as much sense as anything having to do with a time paradox. The main character's life is basically one giant paradox.

If anything, the fact that it even makes any sort of sense at all is impressive if you really think about it. Make a timeline of the main character's life and it works out.
