Nuestros Tiempos

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.

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.

Lucero and Benny Ibarra are two familiar faces from national cinema, but this film is clearly their worst work and version to date. I saw it yesterday, and from the moment I started, I realized it was another TV soap opera turned into a movie.

Mexican cinema is going through its worst moment, and I think this type of film is proving it.

Repetitive plots, recycled characters, extreme feminism, bad scenes and, above all, bad acting make this film one of the worst I've seen this year.

The most complicated aspect was that they stole things from "Back to the Future," and I don't know why they made it seem so splendid or as if they were the greatest geniuses in this type of film. I think it could have been better, but they took the easy way out and went for the typical scenes of modern Mexican cinema.

Nora and her husband Hector are two physicists trying to build a time machine to study and even control time. It's 1966 and the times they live in, do not give Nora her due respect. When Nora eventually cracks the code for their machine to work, the duo travel to 2025 using the very machine. The new world, in a new era leads the duo towards Nora's relatives. The time jump helps Nora get accustomed to the more acceptable society, getting her due recognition while Hector starts to feel out of place. Their own invention starts to test their love for each other. How do they tackle this and will love triumph, forms rest of the story.

I always seek out time travel films as the concept hasn't ceased to excite me. This romantic time travel drama checks all the boxes of this genre and tries to base the story around Nora alone. What I did like about the film is it's portrayal of Hector and his predicament. He was not reduced to a caricature and his feelings were well addressed too. The character's decion in the end was also rightfully cheesy for a romantic drama and I appreciate that the writing allowed Hector and Nora to have a discussion even if it ended abruptly for the cheesy twist. The screenplay doesn't try anything new but succeeds in delivering a decent film that is worth watching once.

Our Times starts with a refreshingly original sci fi concept set in 1960s Mexico. The story blends nostalgia, time travel, and a couple's scientific ambition into an engaging and emotional setup. It draws you in with warmth, humor, and a sense of wonder.

The film stands out for its visuals and tone. There is charm in the details, chemistry between the leads, and genuine interest in how the story will unfold.

However, as the plot develops, the movie shifts focus. What begins as a touching sci fi journey slowly turns into a strong social message. While some may welcome this feminist angle, others might find it feels out of place and too direct. The balance between story and message is not always smooth.

Instead of letting themes unfold naturally through the characters and plot, the film becomes more focused on making a point. This shift weakens the emotional impact and leaves the science fiction aspect underused.
