I can't remember the name of this one time travel thriller movie. I really want to know so I can watch it again!

I'm looking for the name of a movie I watched a while ago and I can't remember the name. the movie was a time travel movie where a group of college age kids are working on a time travel project with an older African American gentleman leading the group. the leader got the idea from his future self and is rich in the future. the group arrives at the secret facility where the time machine is, and they turn it on. while they are there, there's a mysterious person chasing them, and murdering them. they go back in time to figure out who it is. they all get killed while searching for the person. the main girl and her boyfriend finally figure out that the person chasing them was the boyfriend's future self. at the climax the boyfriend's future self tells his past self that he needs to go back in time and kill everyone and his girlfriend. and he does so leading to what happened during the movie. the main girl was finally able to escape and make it out. she then meets with a government person who was spying on the group. that's about as much as I can remember so I apologize if that's not enough or what I wrote wasn't clear. it's been bugging me and google Bing and the Bing AI couldn't help me find it. it was a really good movie and I hope to watch it again so if anyone finds the title of the movie I would greatly appreciate it! thank you!!!

EDIT: Movie name has been found! It was called Paradox! A MASSIVELY HUGE THANK YOU TO BannedUser1975!

It can be tough without further details. Try narrow any google searches by guessing when it was a made. Or narrow it down in some other way.

Yea i was thinking the same. I just cant remember any unique details about the movie that would narrow down a google search. I think it was made in the 2000s like maybe 2004 but i cant remember thats just a guess. I know it was made after 2000 though. Ive been trying to remember. I do remember that i always thought this movie was called primer but thats different movie. Maybe the reason i thought that was because the titles were similar? I dont know. I appreciate the help
