Nuestros Tiempos

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.

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.

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.

It's a fun film. Not groundbreaking, but it still manages to cause some excitement, laughs, and moments of thoughtfulness .

The cinematography is quite great, and there's a lot of effort behind this production. The sets and decoration are fantastic. The wardrobe very well crafted.

The acting is quite on par with the main actors abilities, Mexican icons in their own rights. And the rest of the talent does not fall behind.

The script is basic, don't expect a deep story. If you go in without much expectations, you'll get pleasantly surprised.

If you're looking for a fun watch with a message, this is it!

A lovely, sweet and poignant film that asks: Are we really victims of our times, and if so -- is it by choice -- or convenience -- or both? This film is a Romance-SciFi that also highlights the "Pendulum Effect" of change in human evolution; especially with regard to gender. Changes that some adapt to better than others. I thought the content of this film was relevant for our times; especially here in the USA where 70 million Americans appear to want to turn back the clock to an era that benefitted the few at the sacrifice of many -- but that's a much more complex story for another post.

FILM PROS: Great Acting and Dialogue FILM CONS: It could have better story development. I felt the film could have delved deeper into perceived notions of gender from 1966 to 2025, rather than bluntly end the film on a more "Novela" style romantic note.

Still, I thoroughly enjoyed this film and was really pleased to see the great Mexican actress, Ofelia Medina, back in the limelight.
