Les temps changent

I think the genre isn't right; it's not a Sci-fi film. I think it carries a message of gender ideology, and it's not right to categorize it as something it isn't, as that can create false expectations. The film dubbing and makeup, especially at the end, are very poor. But I think the final message, some of the acting, and the essence of the film aren't bad; On the contrary, it sends a very powerful message about the role of women in society, the generation gap, the women relevance in society today, and the path women have taken through the time. And no, I'm not the one who thinks that the movies has to send a message, but I think the message of this movie is a good one.

A brilliantly subversive and thought-provoking Mexican time-travel genre, this film masterfully blends sharp social commentary with inventive storytelling. Rather than getting bogged down in overly technical sci-fi mechanics, it wisely focuses on its characters and themes, using time travel as a powerful metaphor to explore systemic sexism and female resilience. The result is a movie that's as intellectually engaging as it is emotionally resonant far from mere 'nonsense,' it's a bold statement on gender, power, and legacy.

The film's clever narrative structure keeps viewers invested, weaving together past and present in a way that highlights the enduring struggles women face. While some may dismiss its political messaging as heavy-handed, the truth is that its critiques are timely, incisive, and delivered with biting wit. The characters' financial and logistical challenges (like subway fares) aren't plot holes but deliberate choices, emphasizing the real-world obstacles women navigate daily-details that ground the story in relatable reality.

If you're considering watching this movie, you might want to think twice. From the very first scene, it becomes painfully clear that this film is a mishmash of poor acting, a convoluted plot, and what seems like a budget that barely covered the cost of the snacks for the cast and crew.

The acting is perhaps the most glaring issue. The performances are so wooden that they could easily be mistaken for a high school drama club's first attempt at a serious production. The lead actor delivers lines with all the emotional depth of a cardboard cutout, while the supporting cast seems to be competing for the title of "Most Unconvincing Performance." It's hard to believe that these actors were even given the opportunity to step in front of a camera, as their lack of chemistry and dramatic range makes every scene feel like a chore to watch.

As for the plot, it's a tangled web of clichés and nonsensical twists that leave viewers scratching their heads in confusion. The premise of time travel could have been an exciting concept, but the execution is so poor that it feels more like a series of random events strung together rather than a coherent story. The timeline jumps are jarring, and the attempts at emotional stakes fall flat, leaving audiences feeling more bewildered than engaged. It's as if the writers threw darts at a board of sci-fi tropes and decided to go with whatever landed closest, resulting in a narrative that lacks any real substance or originality.

The production quality is another area where this film falters. The special effects are laughable, reminiscent of early 2000s television shows rather than a feature film. It's clear that the budget was minimal, and the lack of investment is evident in every frame. The sound design is equally subpar, with awkward audio transitions and background music that feels out of place, further detracting from any potential immersion in the story.

In conclusion, this movie is a disheartening example of how not to create a time travel drama. From the lackluster performances to the nonsensical plot and cheap production values, it's hard to find any redeeming qualities. If you're in the mood for a quality film that explores the complexities of time travel, you'd be better off looking elsewhere. Save your time and money-this is one movie that should be left in the past.

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.

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.
