Charming. I found it refreshing that the plot developed over the course of a span of years, as opposed to being limited to a predictable will-they-won't-they-oh-of-course-they-will formula. Obviously, this is a piece of fluff... but I liked it anyway. Oh, and by the way Rachel McAdams strips a little bit and Margot Robbie is even more stunning. So there. This is sort of a guy-flick, too, you see?
6	jack parsons	10 _92nd
The most casual use of time travel I've seen. Easily avoided what could've been a tired gimmick and actually made for a wonderful story about making the choice to smile and take it all in each day. Bill Nighy killed this performance, obviously enjoying his surroundings throughout the film. I cried slightly and called my pops afterwards for a nice conversation. This will get many re watches from me as I entirely love the message and delivery. I hope others can relate to a film as I did this one.
6	VinegarBob	0 _2nd
Think of Groundhog Day. Now take away all the cleverness and originality, replace Bill Murray with someone with no personality, cobble together a string of embarrassingly unfunny scenes and lots of vomit-inducing sentimentality and you'll end up with this abortion.
6	antidood1	55 _24th
Starts with a great, funny, and interesting first act, but after that, this movie's just sort of... there. Stuff happens, but it never really leads to anything. It's like listening to an 8 year old telling you about his day. Add to that the fact that this movie could have ended at least 5 times before it actually does, which makes it feel like an even longer movie than it already is, and there you have one pretty forgettable, even disappointing movie.
4	NunMak	72 _72nd
The standout is Nighy, who elevates every scene he's in.
4	Leonardis	86 _52nd
I liked it quite a bit. I thought it'd be a bit of a sappy romance movie, when it's really just about relationships in general and how much time we invest in them. The leads are thoroughly convincing, and Bill Nighy is just such a charm. It's very whimsical, somewhat profound movie and the time traveling aspect never boggs it down. Watch it for the leads and the message.
4	eCitizen	80 _83rd
Domhnall Gleeson was a surprisingly good leading man in this fun but silly story. Rachel McAdams was lovely in her role despite her frumpy hair cuts & unflattering dresses. She is a remarkable beauty and had a playful fun charm in her role. Bill Nighy gave a memorable performance. Lydia Wilson was also good. The premise was unconvincing, a few plotholes, and they failed to do anything brilliant, but it was lighthearted, enjoyable to watch & was quite humorous at times. A good date movie.
4	Matija D	80 _75th
Very refreshing movie. Movie about familly, happiness, life. Also must say, brilliant choice of music used in the movie :)
4	amazedemon	65 _61st
A little heavy handed with the 'live for the day' motif. About Time has a few sweet moments and few genuinely funny ones; unfortunately they are accompanied by those that are equally as creepy or dull. Hollander and Nighy are brilliant in their supporting roles, but the two leads, even with their chemistry, are a shade too beige. Overall, this film isn't as funny as Love Actually or as charming as Notting Hill, but more mellow, tempered and flawed, though still moderately enjoyable.
4	Quintonjamin	70 _66th
I love the way time travel was depicted and the performances are great, especially Bill Nighy. The writing is mostly good, but the ending annoyed me a bit.
3	cagedwisdom	25 _17th
It starts off alright, but descends into a habit of breaking its own rules and seeming completely disinterested in its own time travel mechanic - it almost seems like an afterthought. Also lacks any kind of dramatic arc. The characters are alright, and the chemistry between them and relatively well-written dialog makes the film bearable. Domhnall Gleeson is a pleasure. A lot worse than similar Rachel McAdams film The Time Traveler's Wife in some areas, and a lot better in others.
3	Ytadel	6 _70th
I already don't know if I could quote anything from it or anything like that, but it is sweet and likable and good-natured and well-acted enough for a lazy Sunday viewing, particularly if you're a bit of a time travel nerd like myself. Rachel McAdams' character is pretty thinly drawn the entire movie, though. Nighy does fine work.
3	Roman_Herbom	50 _18th
An interest premise and good performances by the actors ruined by an extremely weak script.
3	Luna6ix	72 _41st
Another romantic comedy from Curtis who has an ability to make a movie in one of the most copy/paste genres feel just as effective as if you had never seen one before. Maybe it's because he already set the bar so high with "Love Actually," or maybe it's because the lead here isn't nearly as charming as Hugh Grant, but this one just isn't as good, in spite of an excellent supporting performance by Nighy.
3	RealMacgyver	80 _78th
Man, I could do a lot with that ability
3	Superargo	78 _80th
Not a chick flick. Not even a romantic comedy, really. It's more of an old-school, whimsical fantasy about love and family and parenthood and opportunity and responsibility. I was dreading it, but it's actually extremely sure-handed and affable and charming. Lots to like about it for sure, including Gleeson's exceptional lead performance.
3	nequient	88 _73rd
A romance this is not, unless between a man and his life. The plot lumbers clumsily at times, and you wonder when the central conflict will manifest. Then the end sneaks up on you, and you realize you've been expecting the wrong kind of movie. Perhaps writing a plot simply "as it happens" is not the sharpest cinematic device, but then, your perception of the movie changes along with Tim's. Don't expect a rom-com. This is a day in the life of a life.
3	Nepeta	75 _56th
I fully acknowledge it's hokey, sentimental nonsense, but I really cared about the characters and it's just so charming.. I have a soft spot for Richard Curtis, alas.
3	TheEscapist	68 _40th
It's very watchable but the time travelling thing is inconsistent and raises a lot of problems that simply aren't addressed. The love story is bad and uninteresting and most characters were really bland. The humour didn't always work, but it worked for me most of the time. It's passable as entertainment but not much more. Honestly I was hoping for something to go terribly wrong but it never happened. In fact, did any of the people in this film have any problems at all except for his sister?
3	JaiGuy	80 _61st
Is this where Ex Machina, Star Wars actor Domhnall Gleason was really discovered? This movie may be a tad fluffy, but it's funny, smart and poignant too. And there's time travel.
3	QuinlanLJ	85 _93rd
What a breath of fresh air in the rom-com genre. It has loving characters, a sweet story, an amazing soundtrack and some really tear-jerking moments that will make you fall in love with the film. It's a film with the whole package and definitely one that shouldn't be overlooked when it comes to drama, comedy and romance. A huge thumbs up from me, I'm simply in love with this film.
3	meltemcilik	58 _22nd
McAdams's whole time travel movies are terrible. (see:The Time Traveler's Wife) This movie is definitely not scifi,not drama. maybe a little romantic comedy but simple,ordinary and crappy a romantic comedy.
3	Corbad	95 _99th
Combines sentimentality, genuine relationship, absolute hilarity, cleverness, and quirkiness into such a successful package that I am amazed every time I watch it. Unpredictable, unconventional, uncontrollably funny. A must see.
2	SlrSoapbox	90 _92nd
The plot holes surrounding the time travel mechanics are gigantic, but this film managed to make me burst out laughing and bawl like a child. I can't think of any other movie that has had that kind of effect on me.
2	Harmonica	62 _24th
If I could travel back in time I would watch The Time Traveller's Wife instead. As usual, all the frustrations of a Curtis film abound - a thin veneer of sweetness belies a lack of emotional maturity. Not only does this movie break its own time travel rules, the questionable morality of the protagonist goes completely unchecked (indeed, it's basically applauded). There's a point where he gets to use his power for real good and he decides to be selfish instead. 'Fuck you got mine' writ large.
2	r.Din	76 _73rd
Hoping for a Director's Cut without the Coldplay
2	walkabout	60 _38th
Yes, the approach to the female characters is disturbingly problematic and Curtis couldn't care less about an internal logic to the whole time travel issue, but gotta admit it, the film's hilariously funny at times and Domhnall Gleeson is pretty much perfect in it.
2	PeaceAnarchy	81 _64th
It tries to do too much and feels unfocused, but at least it does those things pretty well. When it tries to be comedy it's pretty funny, when it tries to be heartfelt it mostly succeeds, the lead romance is easy to root for, and the time travel is nice little twist. As a whole it's rather fun to watch and sweet without being facile, but it doesn't have much depth despite some rough attempts at doing so.
2	Mohko	60 _45th
Film is ok but I kept bashing my head against the wall because how stupidly the ginger guy uses his powers. Also the ending is way too sappy.
2	Snazz	70 _71st
Groundhog Day and The Butterfly Effect gets the Richard Curtis treatment... and it works quite well. Gleeson is a good match for the ever so lovely McAdams (thank goodness she replaced Zooey Deschanel). Nighy is doing a great job as well as the father. It's far from the most girly of Curtis' films (it's more a drama than a rom-com), so us guys can watch it. Especially with McAdams and Margot Robbie who are both easy on the eyes, we have an excuse. I loved the fathers advice; I'll keep it mind.
2	hellsditch	76 _41st
Nighy is great in his small role and Gleeson is easy to root for. I see why he got the Star Wars 7 gig. But I had a huge problem with the always shifting, nebulous "rules" for Gleeson's time-traveling character. They seemed completely arbitrary and subject to change should the story back itself into a corner that only a BS "because time travel" could remove it. At least they had the good sense to roll out a literal chalkboard to explain "Parallel 1985" in "Back to the Future 2".
2	Wiche	79 _78th
I'm not too big a fan of romantic movies because most of them are plotless, cheesy and overly clichéd. This movie is none of the above. It's refreshing, charming, witty and well acted. A must see!
2	XakkMaster	82 _68th
I'm a sucker for well written sentimental stuff. Lots of good messages about appreciating life, loving your family, doing right by others... It's just so sweet. Also, really strong father/son relationship here, which is nice to see.
2	astrakhan	79 _66th
A nice feelgood romance movie with a pleasant cast. Almost perfect in the first half, and then Curtis decided to break his own rules regarding time travel, leading me to confusion, and the film down a different path. The second half plot, about his father, was tender and affecting in its own right, but made Rachel McAdams look like a spare part. Bit of a Frankenstein job of two 1-hour movies. Felt like typical Curtis mainstream romcom material, but thankfully not as saccharine as previous ones.
2	omgfridge	7 _65th
Usually a bit of a sucker for Richard Curtis. Not his best and way too overlong. Least I got to hear some Nick Cave.
2	fenixdown	53 _12th
Mega cringe. Wish I could go back in time and choose not to watch this treacle.
2	Stripy	84 _72nd
I've really enjoyed it. I thought it would be a bit more focused on the time travel part of it, but that was before I knew Richard Curtis was behind it. And to pass the message it wanted to pass, there was more than enough of it.
2	Jazzaloha	67 _52nd
Started off well, but just petered out for me. Also, the chemistry between Gleason and McAdams just didn't work for me.
2	Henrik	30 _8th
Do people in Richard Curtis' films not have any real problems? This is unbelievably bad horseshit. I mean, where's the story? The whole premise is idiotic.
2	illimani	92 _99th
If you have a son this is impossible to watch without getting emotional!
2	krf7	80 _63rd
Great first and second act, stupidly overemotional final act.
2	mandy	6 _44th
Easy going, likable fluff with a feel good message about living each day positively.
2	burkayadalig	86 _78th
one of the funniest, most clever, most genuine scripts of the year... total joy
2	jkathrens	90 _95th
Such a sucker for Curtis' rom-coms. They're the only films of the genre I seek out. Watching his characters always feels like visiting great friends. Even the assholes are loveable! (especially?) Don't overthink the time travel device -- the film's message is more about taking in all the small moments that make up a day and a life. It's not really about time travel at all. It's about time. And time watching this film is time well spent!
2	Matthew Parkinson (CineMarter)	50 _47th
About Time is for those who want a two-hour escape from the problems of the real world, as it contains no problems or conflict of its own. For anyone wanting a compelling or convincing story, it falls flat, but for an unabashedly sincere romance, I suppose it does its job. It's funny and sweet and really hard to get too worked up about. It has good actors in a simple, fluffy love story. If this is your type of thing, you'll love it. If you have an ounce of cynicism in your veins, skip it.
2	Jerky	70 _89th
This film filled me with regret. Regret for not going after my one true love? Nah. Regret for not starting a family? Nah. Regret for not spending enough quality time with my parents? Nope. What it made me regret was not becoming a time traveler. I should have studied harder in Time Traveling school.
2	TheDailyNathan	82 _61st
A sweet and lighthearted romance - the time-travel aspect is a quirky premise, and you just have to buy into it and not think too critically of it from a science/timeline perspective. Some of the side stories drag on, but the main characters of Richard Grant, Bill Nighy, and Rachel McAdams really shine.
2	caramlefloat	95 _91st
Loved this movie! At first, I thought it would be another generic turn back time type of movie, but it turned out to be a nice and balanced movie.
2	chmul_cr0n	63 _36th
I don't wanna like this movie, but I can't help it...
2	Gnalkhere	70 _46th
Why is it only the dudes that get the power? Still, despite chucking out some concepts of time travel, a solid father-son story
2	JJ1986	30 _6th
There's a section in Groundhog Day where Bill Murray tries to woo Andie McDowell by memorizing facts about her, parroting her ideas back to her and playing the scene further and further without making mistakes. In the end, though, he always ends up getting rejected and slapped. This is a movie for people who thought those were romantic scenes.
2	comepelicula	20 _4th
The movie starts quite well, with interesting characters and plot also Bill Nighy is very charming, but then the second act felt like the main character becomes sort of a selfish psycho time traveler not at all romantic and you are suppose to cheer for him... not very good, and then in the third act I lost interest, no more twists and the script becomes a bit preachy. This movie goes from "good" to "boringgg! please end this now".
2	Grolton	77 _93rd
Very good film, although it were a bit less 'chick flicky,' a bit deeper and a bit less plot hole ridden, I'd have rated it far higher.
2	mattorama12	70 _61st
Quite charming and sweet. It doesn't really go down the path you expect it to (from both the marketing and the first act), which is refreshing. However, it sort of meanders toward its conclusion and beats you over the head with its message. Still, though, it was a really enjoyable experience and one I'd recommend.
2	Barraoc	80 _85th
Certainly not my usual fare but I found this to be quite charming. I also really loved the soundtrack...
2	gkfilm	75 _89th
Entertainment: 6/4 -- the only movie thus far I've rated this high for entertainment value -- very charming movie. Spirituality: 1.5/3. Sustainability: 0/3.
2	o_rety	55 _24th
It's as cute and charming as it gets. Which isn't really that good. It's like sugar, nice on the palate, but ingest too much and it can kill you. It's also the ultimate gal's flick. If you're overflowing with testosterone and would like to gush it with oxytocin, this movie will do the job nicely for you.
2	PluggedIN	40 _35th
Tim and Mary hop in the sack--repeatedly--very early in their relationship. They move in together not long after that. And their actions once again reinforce our culture's boundary-free mores when it comes to physical intimacy. Throw in some f- and s-words and more than 30 misuses of God's name, and all those achingly tender moments elsewhere start to feel achingly sullied as well. (pluggedin.com)
2	mrarn	72 _92nd
I've got a soft spot for movies that make me appreciate my life. This film is a Frank Capra clone. While it's simple and a little silly, I still liked it.
2	qwershady	79 _80th
time travelling subject more delightful than others. but the message that the movie gave us is obvious. carpe diem. which is lame and not real
2	bjn	70 _51st
Couple of plot holes but very enjoyable
2	seenmany	97 _95th
wow, this was great. I do more love movies that have any narration in them. And great subtle humor, so subtle, wow. Seeing this movie again, after seeing the masterclass 'The Art of Negotiation' really makes me notice more in the movie, and its even more of a thrill. The no-oriented question (when asking her number), the change in approach (when asking to marry her)
2	nobamba	95 _97th
The lack of focus on the technical aspects of time travel is a breath of fresh air. I liked this better than Love Actually. The characters were all charming and the movie even acknowledges that once you enter a relationship and have kids, you lose touch with your old friends. No reliance on made up conflicts with Rachel McAdams (one of the cutest characters ever in looks and wardrobe). Gleeson had great development. Music! Fav scenes: first date running through London; wedding; picking dresses.
1	bizort	76 _69th
A pleasant surprise for a romantic comedy
1	Alex Watkins	4 _70th
Curtis can't resist a few urges to tread over the line into maudlin sentimentality, but it's actually a charming and sweet movie for most of its runtime. The denouement pumps the well a little too hard for waterworks (as does the score). Still, it's an easy enough romance to root for ("Time Rapist" undertones aside), and it balances a dry British wit with actual emotion.
1	bowfinger	50 _42nd
Groundhog Day 2. And isn't it odd that Rachel McAdams is playing yet another love interest of a man who is able to travel in time? I find that truly hard to believe. That in itself is like Groundhog Day 2.
1	td888	70 _76th
A wonderful little jewel.
1	Duder	55 _23rd
The last 20 minutes of this movie just takes a very nice and warm movie and turns it into the most cliché thing.. What a waste, still a fun watch but very unncessaryly emotional finale..
1	muutanet	69 _63rd
A nice idea, well acted, but longish and dullish as a whole. Rachel McAdams was specially sweet and has got good chemistry with Domhnall Gleeson.
1	ChrisPalm	79 _77th
Quite nice, doesnt bother you with the usual chick drama sequences.
1	roonay3k	75 _82nd
Perfect dose of drama,not too much.. funny and clever story. Love Rachel McAdams! Thiis movie was a pleasant suprise!
1	Zealot185	7 _1st
As in, it's About Time This Movie is Over. What a scatter-shot, unfocused telling of a romantic time-travelling story. The only resounding message I got out of this was that gingers can't find true love unless they fucked around with time-travelling to force someone to love them. (Full disclosure, I have red hair.)
1	lumen	6 _45th
"You don't need time travel to make your life better if it's perfect already." I'm paraphrasing, but that's the gist of it. Bonus points for the the scene where they cure an alcoholic with a long concerned stare.
1	moraesfelipe	47 _28th
It's ok to have such a confident and optimistic and oh-so-lovely plot about time travel and its consequences -- you can live good and bad days once again, now paying attention to the little beautiful and ordinary things in life, and also make adjustments in the paths of the people you love. No, I have no problem with that. But why is Tim such a perfect, flawless and silly but sweet character all the time, huh? Sorry, Richard, but it's definitely not ok if you're not Frank Capra.
1	Corleone	40 _25th
it's kinda dumb
1	Ernestina	94 _96th
That's a romantic movie I enjoyed. Funny and awkward, but also sad, with some food for thought. I love Rachel McAdams, she is to me, what Kate Moss is to Mary. I didn't quite understand a few parts, but that's time travel for you. The whole movie is lovable, earthly, with great acting.
1	d_r_e_s_	4 _90th
Definitely has a charming Love Actually vibe, but no more than you would expect. Thankfully it was not all about whether or not he gets the girl, but much more profound. A small diamond in the rough, I'd say. I absolutely love the cast. Gleeson makes a good impression, but McAdams and Nighy stands out in particular. + a brilliant soundtrack. - Very Good.
1	ehk2	3 _4th
sickeningly causing puking
1	paulin	79 _42nd
The trick with this one is just to relax, enjoy and not to turn on your deconstructive mind. Of course it's sentimental, centered around white middle class people, has quite static characters and proposes the traditional things of life, but hey, it's Richard Curtis. It's probably his weakest work, yet I found myself enjoying it so much. It's fun to experience, even if at times it's a bit too slow. It makes you shed a couple of tears and call your loved ones. Sweet, beautiful and funny. Good.
1	Wezzo	78 _44th
It starts weakly, with our premise lazily set up by uninteresting, unfunny narration. But the central time-travelling conceit, scientifically unsound though it may be, turns out to work wonders in the rom-com context, adding layers of intrigue to an otherwise pretty standard, if charismatic, setup. Questions without simple answers are pitched, and things emotionally escalate beyond the genre's usual constraints. All gets a bit teary at the end too, which I consider a plus.Syrupy, but tasty syrup
1	Darren	65 _37th
A step up from Love Actually. Lovin McAdams these days
1	MontyCircus	60 _68th
Very funny. Then turns into a rom-com. Then turns into a drama. It's like 3 movies in one! Domhnall Gleeson, remember the name! He is in practically every shot for the entire running time. He carries it well. It was a bit strange that the time travel plot line is practically abandoned for a very long stretch, which in the end renders it as more of a gimmick than anything else. I haven't seen "The Time Traveler's Wife" but I imagine this was a rip-off of that one but I hear this is better.
1	hajikarimi	97 _96th
1231: i really like it! good job!
1	damil	65 _54th
I liked it, for the most part. The concept was quite cool, but I sort of wish they had done something a bit different with it. It has a lot of dark and creepy connotations when it comes to the the main character's decisions, and they avoid all of that. I understand that that wasn't the film they wanted to make, but yeah, still slightly disappointing. Anyway, it was nice overall, although the end was a preachy and sickly sweet.
1	ozonepaul	77 _24th
Charming but way too long, too high/middle class, too cutesy.
1	braddad68	94 _74th
Beautiful love story and drama about the importance of family. A little strange that Rachel McAdams again plays the wife of a time traveler, but she did a fine job again regardless. Bill Nighy was excellent as usual.
1	Hofschneider	71 _33rd
This is a rom-com. This is about upperclass people without a lot of serious problems. This is Rachel McAdams, who plays a polite, clinical love-interest without major weaknesses. This is about finding "true love", wedding-toasts, children and - well - time travel (that leads to a bunch of logical problems of the plot). I liked McAdams (which is maybe the biggest surprise), I liked the naturalistic, pure touch of the dialogs, I liked some of the humor... weird.
1	segarion	83 _31st
Fun romantic comedy. Problematic time traveling plot holes. There are some very interesting take on time traveling but just too much holes. Good try but FAQs About Time Travel did a better job.
1	mkellins	70 _76th
What a sweet film. True, its message of finding beauty in the mundane moments of your life is kind of a cliche, but it's told in such a fresh manner. All the characters felt likeable, warm and real, and the actors are great. Not all the jokes work though, and some scenes drag a bit. I was still positively surprised. Recommended.
1	DougieD	80 _54th
The latest Richard Curtis comedy isn't so much about providing romance and laughs. Rather it is a sentimental hymn to the importance of family in our lives. Easy to relate to because who doesn't wish they could go back in time and fix mistakes or embarrassing interactions?
1	progre2	87 _78th
An all around ... pleasant movie. Nothing special, yet achieves exactly what it sets out to do.
1	Ryan Lueders (ReelRyan)	90 _87th
It's about time they made such a good romance movie. I thought this movie was really sweet. It doesn't go the incredibly predictable route where someone is hiding something from the other, they find out, break up and then get back together at the end. The time travel aspect really freshens things up and this movie is quite funny... [Full Review]
1	HeyDingo	33 _67th
A very well written tale about a genuinely good person who must figure out the success to happiness. Did a great job in avoiding lots of time travel cliches and all the while focusing on some aspects that I've never seen as the conflict before. Solid performances, memorable moments, and also quite hilarious without feeling forced. There may be a time travel flaw but not big enough to harm the film. Maybe not, i'll have to watch it again, which I fully intend to do.
1	deherazade	84 _52nd
Life-affirmingly hokey. Totally charming.
1	biancazzurri	75 _36th
Prepare yourself to watch a very long ad about how we waste our time (no gadget in the end)
1	Mr.Happy	95 _84th
A profound film. I really loved it.
1	Tom0594	83 _85th
"delightful" - Tom Whittall "bloody excellent" - Chloe Rodway
1	nilooravaei	74 _26th
witty dialogue, endearing characters and an interesting premise, but sadly not much beyond that. the film ultimately failed because it was crippled by its premise - having the protagonist go back in time meant that he could fix anything that went wrong and avoid any sense of conflict or obstacle. there was never anything at stake, and everything always worked out perfectly, to the point where we as an audience, disengaged with the film.
1	Frozencone	50 _49th
too many gingers

loved the quasi-magic realism. i'm a sucker for storylines in which so much overtly rides on one-time interactions b/w protagonists (see also Solaris). in this film, tim gets to keep trying till he gets it right--a phenomenon fun to consider vis-a-vis one's own life. pleasantly surprised to see the love story shift gears to a different kind of love story, and then satisfied again to take home the philosophical message of, basically, living each day to its fullest. well done.

It fell short of my too high expectation, but it still was an enjoyable fantasy romantic comedy movie. It is one of those small number of time travel movies that do not take the concept of time travel itself too seriously. It was generally a good strategy, I think, but there were some moments that made me think, what the heck just happened?

I love the message. Partway through, I thought it would be a typically convenient romance but was pleasantly surprised! Family dynamic seems really fun too.

Using the same actress in another time travel movie was too much for me. I kept putting story plot from "Time Travelers Wife" into this one. Don't get me wrong the stories are different and the movie is okay.

It was cute and lively, pleasant to watch. However, making a character driven movie based on one dimensional characters might not be the best idea. The actors did their best to save it, and luckily the core plot was cute enough that it carried the movie into kinda okay territory. As for the time travel logic of this movie, I'd rather not comment on it since there was none.

Time travel in movies is always tricky, and it is in this one. If you think too much about it then it kind of falls apart, but the movie doesn't really focus too much on it. Honestly, for a romantic comedy type movie, it doesn't even focus much on the romance aspect. It is more of a movie about the importance of family, decisions, and what we do with the time we have. The worst part of it for me were some of the awkward bits especially near the beginning, but overall it was a light, fun movie.

Groundhog day araklaması ve gereksizce yapılmış bir ikinci yarı. (bonus olarak; dünyanın en güzel kadını iki kelimeyi bir araya getiremeyen sıska yan sanayi paul scholes'tan hoşlanıyor ve reddediliyor.)

Exactly as it looks on the trailer. Sweet and enjoyable. Not too corny, actually.

This super-conservative movie would be good in 1953, but not in 2013

Beautifully filmed and unabashedly sincere, About Time finds director Richard Curtis at his most sentimental.

Overall, a nice, sweet movie. It could have been much more affecting had film taken a step further at key moments to actually create a sense of real loss. Instead, they chose for a much more vanilla story.

Please, if you haven't, just watch Groundhog Day and forget this one.
