Another Time

Judging from the IMDb rating and a few user comments, it seems I enjoyed this movie more than most. Maybe it is because I am a scientist? The middle of the movie contains quite a lot of science jargon and discussions of what might be the mechanism to travel back in time. Although that will likely remain impossible forever it is fun to see how it is discussed.

The main character is Justin Hartley as Eric Laziter, a financial professional who seems to be very good at his job. His firm is in the process of buying out a smaller firm and he needs to spend time with the owner to effect a proper transfer. She is smart and pretty and kind and as they spend time together they begin to be romantically attracted to each other.

Big issue! She is recently engaged to her boyfriend of five years and seems very happy with him. But Eric is sure, if he could have met her right before her boyfriend does then he can short-circuit that and have her for himself.

There is a lot of time with a retired Physicist who was on the verge, a few years earlier, of solving the time-travel mechanism. Eric looks him up in Arizona, they work hard on the equations. Ultimately the story is less about time travel and more about finding out what excites you about life. More than just going through the motions and earning a high six figures salary. And maybe, just maybe, the girl he thinks is best for him might not be the one.

My wife and I watched it at home on Amazon streaming movies.

The acting isn't that bad i guess, but everything else is very weak and boring. It is one of those "love" stories where you simply don't care about the characters or their relationship.

Just gotta say ,, if there is ever an award for the worst actress ,, Chrishell Hartley would won it .. then comes the rest of the cast ,, man they don't know what actign is ..Arielle Kebbel was okay though,

I'm not sure though,, is this an MTV movie !! because even MTV couldn't scoop to this level ... the movie idea is non-original and the script is just predictable and lazy ...

I am absolutely a fan of Justin Hartley. This movie is simply a thinly veiled excuse to watch more of him. 😄 It's overall pretty forgettable, and I just didn't really care about the characters much, but Justin alone is worth watching. He's great, even if the material ain't great. He brings reality, sincerity, and grounding to a character and story that would otherwise be mere eye rollers. It's simply a silly romance story with a pretty wonderful leading man, that's it. Don't even bother trying this one if you're not a Justin fan. If you ARE a Justin fan though, I don't think you'll be disappointed by this little flick.

I really like Justin Hartley and Arielle Kebbel and after seeing the trailer I expected so much more. The movie really isn't a love story and was boring. I kept expecting the tempo of the movie to speed up and the ending was not very satisfying. I am glad I was able to watch for free, I would be upset if I had paid to see it!
