James vs. His Future Self

To like this movie you need to be a little bit with a scientific mind and a lot more with intelligent sense of humor.

The subtle humor in this movie really surprised me.

I am going to repeat this because I don't want to write anything else.

And again... To like this movie you need to be a little bit with a scientific mind and a lot more with intelligent sense of humor.

Charming, quirky and funny with a valid message regarding the pointlessness of worrying about the future or obssessing about the past - and never taking the time to enjoy the present. Good to see Daniel Stern again but couldn't they have found another actor to play his younger self who was the same height? Time travel 'stretches you' doesn't work, not even with Hollywood physics. Otherwise harmless, good fun and worth a watch.

I usually don't waste my time on anything rated less than 6.5.users are usually on point...but this time completely wrong. 5.7? Are you kidding me...this is definitely worth higher. Maybe if you were expecting a serious sci Fi thriller then you will be disappointed, but even if you were, and were then suprises by an emotionally intelligent film with good acting then you would definitely rate it higher. So glad I didn't listen to you negative reviwers.

One of the reasons that I love comedy genre is that they teach us valuable lessons. For example, I learned a lot from the movie . This is the story of a scientist who is obsessed with his work which is inventing the time travel. As the title shows his future version travels back to change what he did in the past. The story is very well-written. The plays are one level below the story. The usage of background music and movements of the camera could be improved. The scenes and locations are diverse. In summary, this will be a good choice for comedy fans.

I really enjoyed this movie, I watched it streaming on Amazon Prime.

The theme is time travel and the physics they discuss is pretty close to authentic physics. They mention CERN and the Large Hadron Collider, and not surprisingly used a theoretical physicist, a professor, as a consultant.

Younger James (actor was about 45) is consumed with developing his theories and eventual method of time travel when this older guy (actor was 61) shows up claiming to be him at an older age. He has a unique way of proving it, comparing unique markings on their Johnsons. In other movies it might have come across as too juvenile but here it worked.

So James and this new guy, "uncle Jimmy", go back and forth and create some unusual and mostly humorous situations. And of course there is a girl involved, and James must get his priorities straight. That is why his older self is there, to convince him.

Fun, entertaining movie.
