Product Description

The night after another unsatisfactory New Year party, Tim's (Domhnall Gleeson) father (Bill Nighy) tells his son that the men in his family have always had the ability to travel through time. Tim can't change history, but he can change what happens and has happened in his own life - so he decides to make his world a better place...by getting a girlfriend (Rachel McAdams). But as his unusual life progresses, Tim finds out that his unique gift can't save him from the sorrows and ups and downs that affect all families, everywhere.

Customer Reviews

Time enough for love

All the males in the family learn at age 21 that they are capable of time travel. Only for his lifetime and no future. This is a pretty standard “what if” type of time travel where one correction unravels the other. And as in “Groundhog Day” (1993), we get to work on perfection. Yet is Tim looking for love in all the wrong places? Or will he find that time travel is not all it is cracked up to be? I do not mean to distract from the story, but the scenes of the countryside are beautiful. Director of Photography John Guleserian. We get to listen to the song “How Long Will I Love You?” (Mike Scott) No, wait, we get to listen to the song “Il Mondo” (Jimmy Fontana) You may find that you like this film just the way it is and not go back to change it, as we are all-time travelers.

One of the sweetest movies ever

About Time is the story of an unassuming young man who learns that the male members of his family are able to time travel. With his father's guidance, he navigates this newfound ability with a clumsy, unassuming charm and goodwill that made me fall in love with Domhnall Gleeson. I have since seen all of his movies. This is the kind of movie you want to share with friends, the kind of movie you want to own so that you can watch it whenever you need to see kindness and humor and love all wrapped up in one beautiful time-travelling package.
