Which movie best explains the Chaos Theory ?
I saw a movie called The Oxford Murders, and in the climax the professor explains Elijah Wood about how one of his action affected all the events that take place during the movie. I think it is somewhat similar to the Chaos Theory or The Butterfly Effect.
I just want to know whether there is a movie which can explain more about the Chaos Theory than The Oxford Murders? What are your suggestions?
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

Plot :
"Evan Treborn (Ashton Kutcher), who suffered severe traumas as a boy (Logan Lerman) and a teenager (John Patrick Amedori), blacks out frequently, often at moments of high stress. While in his dorm room reading one of his journals to a girl, he finds that when he reads from his adolescent journals, he travels back in time, and is able to essentially "redo" parts of his past, thereby causing the blackouts he experienced as a child. There are consequences to his choices, however, that he then propagates back to the present: his alternate futures vary from frat boy to prisoner to amputee. His efforts are driven by the desire to undo the most traumatic events of his childhood which coincide with his blackouts, including saving his childhood sweetheart Kayleigh (Amy Smart), from being molested by her father (Eric Stoltz) and tormented by her sociopathic brother (William Lee Scott)."

Watch "Run Lola Run" 1998
It's a German movie starring Lola who finds herself re-living (no one knows how) the same unlucky morning. But every time a small detail will change the morning altogether and will lead to a different conclusion of the story. A good use of the theory.

Also "Sliding Doors"
Helen is fired from her job and takes the train to go home. From there her life may take two different paths.
1. Helen gets in the train before the doors close arrives home early and discovers that her boyfriend is cheating on her. So she decides to start a new life with someone he just met on the train.
2. Helen doesn't make the train, will get home late (due to someone trying to rob her) won't discover her boyfriends infidelity, will find a new job as a waitress and will never know the fact that her boyfriend is betraying her.
It's another good use of the theory, the sliding door phenomenon in this case, and generally one of the best to show how small decisions or events can influence our entire life.

Interesting ... Gotta check it out !
I was coming into this question to say that same thing! Excellent movie that touches on one of the wings of the Chaos Theory, the most interesting one in my opinion.
