This is a fun little time travel movie, with nice relationships between the principal characters. Link most time-travel movies there are plenty of logical holes of course.

In view of Ryan Reynolds' part ownership of Wrexham Football Club, I was amused to see that the movie has Welsh subtitles on Netflix, which taught me a few expletives I didn't know before!

I suppose this is an OK film if you just like a lot of shooting, explosions, and chases. If you think about the plot for a moment, it's ridiculously improbable. If you want to get someone from Manchester to Den Haag, the logical way would be to fly from Manchester (which has the biggest airport in the UK outside London) to Amsterdam Schiphol, which is half way between Amsterdam and Den Haag - you could do the whole transfer in 2-3 hours. If you insist on going by ship, you wouldn't go through Dover (which as far as I know has never had a service to the Netherlands) - you'd either head southeast from Manchester (not going anwhere near Coventry) to Harwich, to catch a ferry to Hoek van Holland which is down the coast from Den Haag, due east from Manchester to take an overnight ferry from Hull to Rotterdam, which is even further from Den Haag, or northeast from Manchester to Newcastle upon Tyne to catch the overnight ferry to Amsterdam/IJmuiden; in any case the crossing takes 8-20 hours which would make it difficult to meet the deadline in the story. Oh, and Interpol is a co-ordination organisation between police forces - it doesn't have any agents or powers of arrest of its own.
