Great time travel film

Rating: Null/10 (25 June 2017)

Films about time travel always intrigue me especially when done well. About time is a good example of that. What starts as a simple time travel story to improve a person's life becomes a story about family, heartbreak and life lessons. The protagonist shows that he never takes a day for granted and the people around him for granted. From the outset the film takes a positive note and shows a positive character that is tolerable and likable for the most part. Not only is it interesting the events that unfold in this person's extraordinary ordinary life are quite entertaining to watch. The drama is also well executed when Tim finds that there are trade offs and challenges he faces with his ability. The supporting cast especially, Bill Nighy do a great job.
If you can get over the technical feasibility of time travel and the romantic or heartfelt fluff you will certainly enjoy this film. I feel this might have scored very well with young married couples.
