Primer

I did not like primer. There was a lot of mumbling physics going on that I think the story could have done with out. It was almost like the movie was based on an interruption of a group of people's everyday lives that were more than just the ordinary business man days. I couldn't quite figure out what they were doing, whether they were having out of body experiences or whether they were time traveling. If they were time traveling, why did they have 2 bodies of themselves walking around? If you disrupt time, wouldn't it take all of you as a person and a body to do that? I don't understand the science fiction behind duplicating every atom and molecule over a space continuum that exists in parallels. Or maybe I'm just being too critical. Either way, I think they should have explained more in the movie. I didn't see the purpose in a lot of the things that were going on, such as the man they were chasing that night who they suspected had done the time traveling also. And why the main character killed his best friend's double. Can someone please explain this to me? Also, why did they not want to stop? Why couldn't they have just left it alone instead of one of them trying to flee? Wouldn't the double eventually disappear? And if not, wouldn't that mean there were more than 2 of each person since they did it so often?
