A master piece of smush

Rating: 9/10 (18 October 2013)

This is a romantic comedy that is more about making you feel good rather than laughing out loud.
Domhnall Gleeson excels as the likable ginger tosser Tim; and Rachael Mcadams is fantastic as the awkward, vulnerable girl-next-door Mary. Watching their relationship progress (with the help of Tim's time travelling abilities) tugs on all the heart strings multiple times.
Although the story is fantastic it is fairly basic and never dips in to the realms of silly. All the characters are great, especially Mary who takes adorable to new heights.
Important! Time travel is not possible; so don't let your mind wander into the realms of paradoxes, dichotomies and the general mechanics of Tim's abilities. This is not a Sci-fi, you need to concentrate on feeling not thinking for this film to work.
I sat for most of the film with a big stupid grin on my face but (I'm not afraid to admit it) tears in my eyes by the end. Fantastic feel good movie!
