About Time 3.5 Stars

This is a really interesting movie with a different story that seems to work very well. It is directed by Richard Curtis who also directed Nottinghill and Love Actually and has a very similar feel to it.

The story is about time travel (which should not be a 'spoiler' as it's shown in the movie trailers) and takes a few twists that are unexpected. But the result is a thought provoking movie that I think should stand the test of time.

Bill Nighy (also in Love Actually) is delightfully good and Rachel McAdams (Midnight in Paris) plays a quieter more supportive role than I've seen her in. The surprise is Dohhnail Gleeson (Harry Potter 7 & 8) who carries the film with an awkward but strong performance. Other actors are not as well known to me but they add to the overall lovely effect.

I cannot wait to see this again and might return to the theatre to do so, soon.
