Les temps changent

My thoughts:

Entertaining and clever, mostly.

There are some weirdos, no doubt misogynists, out there reviewing films. They had one DeLorean, in one scene, for just a few seconds, as a subtle nod to Back to the Future and one idiot was like, 'They imitated Back to the Future the whole movie!' 😆

The bad reviews are red-tarded.

It's not the best movie in the history of cinema, but for the type of movie it is, '60s science geek couple travel 60 years into the future to find women's inequality has mostly disappeared, which tests their relationship,' it's actually pretty good.

Some of the nerds are tripping all over themselves to lament the lack of 'tech cool, CGI driven action' and totally missing the humor, social conflict and pathos that makes this film unique and interesting. I doubt some of them even know what a joke is.

It doesn't get the main theme quite right, as I don't see Hector, the male lead who praises the couple's love as an 'omnipresent force in the past and the future' shallowly abandoning the love of his life when he loses a few of the advantages of male entitlement. Any real scientist, especially an only child with no real ties to the past, would've been thrilled with the advances in science and technology and opted to stay in the future. He also would've seen the second class citizenship of women in the past as objectively wrong, adapted to the new, merit based, fairer world and looked for a way to fit in from the get go.

So it wasn't perfect, but well worth watching.

This is a thought-provoking sci-fi romance that uses time travel and gender roles to highlight how the most impactful societal changes are not technological, but social. The film pushes some boundaries in this regard and encourages viewers to reflect on how the world has changed-and continues to change-and how those changes are experienced by different people.

Some viewers have pointed out plot holes, but this movie isn't meant to be taken too literally. While certain inconsistencies are hard to ignore, they don't significantly affect the narrative. For example, it's hardly essential to worry about how time travelers from the past managed to buy train tickets-we can simply assume they rode without one, if that's easier.

The acting is solid throughout and suits the characters well. These are scientists-not eccentric inventors like Doc Brown in Back to the Future-but more grounded portrayals of physicists. They're realistic people with personal lives beyond the lab, holding both liberal and conservative views in different areas. And yes, they have romantic relationships too.

Overall, I enjoyed this film. It never felt boring, and the story moved steadily forward, with twists that weren't exactly surprising, but felt inevitable in a satisfying way. Some viewers may feel uncomfortable, while others may feel seen-but in the end, the film delivers a powerful message and explores timely, relevant issues. It's hard to argue with the underlying truths, even when they're wrapped in fiction.

The acting was both bad and very cliché. Besides, it was obvious that there was no chemistry between the actors. It was a shame because the subject was not bad, especially the transformation of gender relations, women's rights, gender equality, etc.

The holes in the script are also among the unnecessary flaws. The childishness in the technological and theoretical explanations is perhaps tolerable, but I'm not sure if the ridicules of the 'time machine' operation was necessary. Still, it's a watchable film for those who want to see an example of modern Mexican cinema. I hope we can see new, more mature examples of Mexican cinema.

Yes there are huge plot holes in the Mexican film but it isn't a rigorous sci fi film. Instead it is a delightful story of gender inequality and how time changes us all. The time machine recalls HG Wells and the main characters are fun and very watchable.

Critics of the film have probably never been to Mexico and seen for themselves the gender divide there. I have witnessed the macho culture and it is like something from the 1960s. So if this film can shine a light then i applaud it. It will be popular amongst women who can probably relate to the main character and her efforts to keep everyone happy.

Well worth a watch.

So it suckers you in with the "people from the past going to the future" theme, an it seems like an okay movie so far if you can get over the terrible acting, but then "the message" just like how Hollywood is constantly trying to cram down its audiences throat rears its ugly head once again.

The guy sees guys lose their power and the woman sees women gaining power. Now of course they never touch on the fact that divorce is rampant because of this power struggle, families are broke apart, population is declining, girls are abortion obsessed sluts with Only fans accounts in the name of "power", and that women in record numbers are becoming bitter, over stressed cat ladies who die alone. All for selfish pride and an extra gucci bag.

What should've been done is something more realistic: That he was the scientist who brought his loving and supportive wife to the future and they noticed how the West has declined, rebukes the status quo, then travels back to do everything in their power to change the future with success in the end. Hopefully The Daily Wire or Angel studios will do something of the sort so the movie can really sell.
