An excellent film

Rating: 10/10 (3 November 2016)

'About Time' gets a lot of flack from people who spot the plot holes, or who are biased against Richard Curtis films before they even watch them. For me though this is his best work.
It's got everything. The first half is classic Curtis Rom-com. We've got the bumbling Brits, the American girl he hopelessly chases, there's supporting characters we fall in love with. It's all fun and lovely.
But then along comes the second half that absolutely breaks your heart because the scenes between Nighy and Gleeson are so poignant. For a film to have this much warmth and heart is a rare thing.
I can't recommend this film highly enough.
