The Greatest Hits

This film was so well pieced together from start to finish. From the tiny details like the timeless timepiece on her wrist to the editing with the memory flashes. The acting was so much more realistic than typical movies these days. The dialogue felt natural and not forced or scripted. And the storytelling itself was just excellent! I was so impressed with this film. I was in a similar scenario as her and I have certainly been transported by music when it comes to certain songs tied to certain memories. For me, this film was like a daydream fantasy of mine that I'd give anything to be able to experience in real life. Absolutely fantastic from start to finish. 10/10.

This film has taken a good idea already used in Press Play and made an awful film. I watched them promote this on The One Show who clearly didn't do any research as they said what a great unique idea! The music used which is supposed to be the greatest hits are bad in my opinion. It feels like you never care about the main female character as it always feels like the film starts half way through which means you never care about any of the characters or the relationship with the dead boyfriend which you know nothing about. Watch Press Play it's loads better I actually read a review that said the opposite which I clearly don't agree with.

Its a intresting concept of travling through time due to certain music but this film does not deliver if you like the concept please watch press play 2022 this has tried coping the same storyline near enough with a few differances.

And as always the only 10/10 is a new account probably family members again even the 9/10 seems a bit suspect been a member 6 years and only ever reviewed this film.

Worth a watch if bored

Young Harriet discovers that art imitates life when she discovers that certain songs can literally transport her back in time. But as she relives the past through the romantic memories of her old boyfriend, her time travel collides with a new romantic adventure in her present. And so, on her journey through the hypnotic connection between music and memory, Harriet wonders if, even if she could change the past, she should.

And, to overuse a delicious quote from SEINFELD, not that there is anything wrong with that. The most interesting thing about this quite adequate film is the odd way reviewers approach it. It is as if no two pundits can agree on what they just saw? Some see a time travel film along the lines of THE TIME TRAVELOR's WIFE. Some see a deconstruction of the role of music in modern society. Some simply see a useful vehicle to move along the career of the always photogenic Boynton (who, for example, is all most of us can recall from the otherwise tedious IPCRESS FILE). Some even suggest that the film's auteur created this ambiguity deliberately to hold the attention. Which is, after all, the primary purpose of any film. Entertainment. Holding one's gaze. This reviewer, like Boynton's own character, sees all the possibilities at once, and each has merit.. But, unlike that character, will not attempt to change or alter any of them.

This film took a sci fi story and made it something we can relate to on grief, heartbreak, or simply getting trouble letting the past go. You can feel the character really struggling. Everybody has felt that in some level, with a friend, family or lover. The film takes it to a surreal level, but we all do that. Romanticizing on past experiences, remembering dates, smells, tastes...moments. Some people let those things go easily... some others cant, simply cant. I am one of those and this movie caught me of guard in that sense. It helped me get some perspective on things.i really enjoyed this simple but intense story.
