Tim ha 21 anni, ed è un ragazzo piuttosto impacciato, quando apprende da suo padre che tutti gli uomini della sua famiglia hanno un dono particolare. Se si chiudono in un luogo in cui nessuno può vederli e stringono con forza i pugni possono fare dei balzi indietro nel loro passato potendolo così modificare per poi tornare al presente. Tim decide di utilizzare subito questo 'potere' per cercare di trovare una compagna. A un certo punto l'obiettivo diventa Mary, conosciuta in un ristorante al buio, ma quando i giochi sembrano fatti, un errore nel passaggio temporale sembra rimettere tutto in discussione.

  • Synopsis: After discovering that he can travel through time, young Tim Lake uses his ability to win the heart of the woman of his dreams and save his friend from a professional disaster. Review: "About Time" written and directed by Richard Curtis, is one of those films that manages to make you fall in love with a story without needing grand events happening all the time. The premise a young man discovering the ability to travel through time might suggest a conventional romantic comedy, but the film uses this concept to explore themes far greater than just finding the perfect love. At first, Tim tries to improve his own dates, correct mistakes, and avoid awkward situations things many people can easily relate to. Gradually, however, the story reveals that not everything needs to be fixed, and that some of our best memories actually stem from the simplest, most unexpected moments. It is a narrative that wins you over bit by bit, making every detail feel significant. The relationship between Tim and Mary is one of the most compelling aspects to watch. Domhnall Gleeson and Rachel McAdams share a very natural chemistry, which makes the couple feel like two real people complete with their own insecurities, playful banter, and small imperfections. I appreciate how the romance doesn't rely on grand declarations or exaggerated conflicts to work; rather, it’s the amusing dialogue, the awkward moments, and the growing intimacy between them that make their connection so convincing. Mary isn't just someone for Tim to "win over," but a person with whom he learns to share his life. It’s easy to root for them because the film doesn't try to sell a "perfect" love, but instead portrays a relationship built through the fabric of everyday life. For me, however, the true heart of "About Time" lies in the relationship between Tim and his father, played by Bill Nighy. There is a profound delicacy in how they interact through casual conversations, pieces of advice, and playful teasing all of which mask a deep affection that is difficult to put into words. The film begins as a story about time travel and romance, but this relationship ultimately lends a much deeper significance to Tim’s ability. The scenes between father and son are among the most beautiful in the story, precisely because they don’t require grand speeches to be moving. When the true stakes of this relationship are revealed, everything we’ve seen before takes on a new weight. Bill Nighy is excellent, and his performance helps transform these moments into something that stays with us long after the film ends. The message about embracing life is also what makes this story so special. At first, Tim uses his power to try to secure better days, fix situations, and make things unfold exactly as he’d like. Yet, as the story progresses, it becomes clear that the ability to return to the past doesn’t mean one can control everything let alone avoid pain and loss. What he learns is the importance of living each day with intention, without the need to turn it into an extraordinary occasion. I find it truly beautiful the idea that happiness can be found in a casual conversation, a family lunch, or an apparently ordinary day that, in hindsight, proves to be far more significant than we ever imagined. The film doesn’t attempt to convey this in a complicated way; perhaps it is precisely this simplicity that makes its message so impactful. The setting and the soundtrack also play a major role in establishing the film’s warm, inviting atmosphere. The tranquility of Cornwall contrasts with the bustle of London, lending the story a sense of the passage of time that aligns perfectly with its themes. Everything possesses a unique charm from the familiar settings to the small, shared moments between the characters. The soundtrack complements this atmosphere with music that resonates with the romance, humor, and nostalgia of the narrative, featuring tracks by artists such as Ben Folds, Amy Winehouse, and The Cure. It’s not just a collection of lovely songs playing in the background; they help give personality to the scenes and make certain moments even more memorable. It’s one of those films where the music, the colors, and the settings all seem to become part of the very memories the story seeks to build. "About Time" is much more than a romantic comedy about a man who can travel through time. It’s a film about love, family, loss, and how we can spend so much time trying to improve our own lives that we end up failing to enjoy what we already have. Richard Curtis strikes a beautiful balance between humor and sadness, making the story moving without ever feeling artificial or forced. What I appreciate most is that the film doesn’t end with the notion that we need to change everything to be happy, but rather with the idea that perhaps we simply need to pay closer attention to what is already right in front of us. It’s a story that makes me want to cherish ordinary moments more because, in the end, those are the ones that turn out to be the most important.

    Fifth time I've watched it. I cry every time. What really fascinates me about this movie is that, while it is centered around a couple and it involves time travel, it is neither a romantic comedy or a sci-fi flick. It actually is a film about human relations and life, and if that's what happens to use time travel as a to show us that. The cast is magnificent, music is lovely and the father-son relationship heals me a little

    A great story about a young man, Tim, who can travel through time and change things in his own life. But this is not a sci-fi movie. It's more akin to a romantic comedy. A great cast and some powerful scenes, especially those with Tim and his father.

    Not a rom com at all. Mostly a movie about time travelling but not so SF. Could feel repetitive and flat at first but the end really made me and my bf cried. So worth seeing for some values conveyed. Ps: Just call ur loved ones man

    I was hoping to fall in love with another romcom. However, I really did not like this. It was boring and dry. The concept was awesome but the execution was a letdown.

    A beautiful story about what really matters in life -relationships and spending time with those we love because life can suck that away from us if we don't spend the time intentionally to create meaningful relationships. The chemistry in the main couple was beautiful and the way the director wove together years of life was very sweet. Highly recommend!

    Every now and then, a film comes along that doesn't just tell a story, it genuinely affects you. About Time is that kind of film. Richard Curtis manages to blend light science fiction, romance, comedy, and drama into something that feels effortless, human, and profoundly moving. Unless you're an absolute sociopath, you will laugh a lot. And cry A LOT. At its core, this isn't a film about time travel, it's about love in its many forms and about learning to live with the consequences of our choices. The ability to revisit the past may sound like a blessing, but Curtis uses it to show that life's beauty lies in its imperfections, in the moments we can't edit or undo. The message is simple and deeply resonant: you can't carry the past with you every step, you have to live forward. The relationship between father and son is the emotional anchor, it's tender, understated, and beautifully played. Bill Nighy and Domhnall Gleeson share a warmth that feels utterly real, full of quiet affection and unspoken understanding. Their scenes together have that rare quality of making you smile through tears. The relationship between Nighy and Duncan (Dad and Mum) radiates a kind of lived-in grace. It's the quiet comfort of two people who've spent a lifetime choosing each other. And then there's the romance between Gleeson and Rachel McAdams, which manages to be funny, awkward, and genuinely sweet all at once. Nothing feels forced. Curtis understands that love, like time, is best measured in small, ordinary moments. By the time the story reaches its emotional crescendo, you realize you've laughed as much as you've cried, and both feel completely earned. About Time is a film about gratitude, acceptance, and the gentle ache of impermanence. It's Curtis' most sincere work, a reminder that life's greatest gift isn't time itself, but the people we share it with.

    very sappy and cheesy and unserious but it was still somehow more emotionally touching than i expected, makes you appreciate things you have, and makes you miss the things you don't have anymore :(

    This is my favourite movie. Anyone else? What do you love about it?

    This movie is especially important to me. Some of the locations are meaningful to my relationship with my partner and watching it never fails to make me feel better if I’m feeling low.
