About Time Ratings & Reviews
- Scott SteadDecember 14, 2025Very unique time travel film. Great writing, solid plot and all the feels.
- charliesimon778July 15, 2025I thought this movie was an amazing romantic movie how it started out and ended. I liked how one of the characters was in love with Margot Robbie’s character but ended up seeing someone else. What I liked seeing the most in this movie was seeing some of the scenes with Margot Robbie even though she was not in it much. I wished it would have shown more of Margot Robbie in it. I thought that the scenes with Margot Robbie were the best parts in this movie. I would give Margot Robbie 11 out of 10 stars for best performances and I thought her character looked amazing in this movie.
- Treks_Tales_TunesDecember 8, 2025it is one of the best movies I have watched yet.. Sci Fi and still so full of life and love
- CallumNovember 23, 2025⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ – About Time – A Love Story Sewn Into the Fabric of Life About Time is one of those rare romantic dramas that sneaks up on you, wraps itself around your heart, and then quietly breaks it in the most beautifully British way possible. It begins like a sweet, quirky romcom and ends as something much deeper — a meditation on time, family, love, and the quiet sacrifices we make without ever announcing them. It’s warm, funny, and devastating in equal measure. You can see shades of The Time Traveler’s Wife throughout, and in some ways this really does feel like the emotional prequel — the early years before the weight of time-traveling consequences truly sets in. There’s a moral cost embedded in the gift, and the film doesn’t shy away from that. It’s not all roses and fairytale logic; the story slowly reveals a knot of responsibility and regret that sits beneath the sweetness, giving the entire film a resonance that lasts far beyond the credits. And yes — Margot Robbie appears in only a handful of scenes, but she leaves a mark. Her character is the perfect youthful fantasy, the unattainable crush that feels monumental in the moment, only to later become part of life’s background tapestry. The film uses her exactly as intended: a reminder that desire often isn’t destiny, and that the real story unfolds with the people who stay, not the ones we briefly orbit. Domhnall Gleeson carries the film gently, and Rachel McAdams is effortlessly charming, but it’s Bill Nighy who steals the soul of it. Their father–son dynamic elevates this from romance to something far more universal. In the end, About Time becomes a soft philosophical whisper: that life is lived not through rewinds and rewrites, but in learning to savour the imperfect present. Uncle Ben would approve — with great power does indeed come great responsibility, and this film explores that with tenderness instead of spectacle. 🍷 Pairing: A glass of aged red — warm, reflective, and quietly emotional, the kind of drink that deepens as you sit with it, much like the film itself.
- Billy ZaneOctober 5, 2025I watched this movie wanting purely because of the time travel, but it's so much more than that. One of my favorites and I recomend anyone to watch it.
- julien_t3September 26, 2025One of my favorite movies
- InterrobangerSeptember 18, 2025I will always love this film about grappling with the acceptance of living in the past, present and future.
- rossn21June 15, 2025Fuck “Love Actually”, this is the best romance movie ever made
- M08YSeptember 9, 2025About Time is my favourite Rom-Com without a doubt. I find it to be the most beautiful and heart warming entry into the genre. I don't usually find Rom-Coms to be memorable but this one truly is. The casting is spot on with direction and writing to match. I wholeheartedly recommend giving About Time a go. The time travel mechanic can generously be described as "don't think about it too much", but the time travel is very much to service the plot and not something you are really meant to worry about. As per most rom-coms, the bluray looks and sounds absolutely fine.
- seggi5August 26, 2025Made me cry
- AndreiTamasMay 23, 2025id travel in time for her too!!! good watch
- ishaanJune 24, 2025Only like it cuz someone important to me used to like it.
- Mister ArnMay 14, 2025I'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.
- WolfeMan911May 11, 2025English is not my first language, so I can't express the feeling of being touched by this movie. I've been watching it so many times yet every time I am moved to tears.
- RazorbitzFebruary 22, 2025About Time is the warmth of a hug on celluloid. My partner and I went in with no expectations and came away adoring this film. A love story filled with whimsy that in a brilliant stroke handles time travel in much the same way it handles the romance: with deftness, awareness, and charm. There are so many points that other attempts at a similar idea have failed, or fell into a more crass examination of what unlimited resets can do to morality. Not so here: a film that worries not the exact sciences as to the why, but in so doing gives a poignant examination on the value of failure, the value of simply being. I would say more, but despite never hearing of this film and always being fascinated in how (often poorly) time travel is handled in narratives, this is one of the best. I often despise rom-coms for their saccharine sentimentality, but here I only found myself swept up in the magic in a way that can only ever be captured that once, with no expectations. Reading a review as gushing like this, I might have set the bar too high! The simple magic of earnest cinema; About Time is too overlooked and sits now as an all time favorite in my collection. Please give it a watch sometime.
