The night after another unsatisfactory New Year party, Tim’s (Domhnall Gleeson) father (Bill Nighy) tells his son that the men in his family have always had the ability to travel through time. Tim can’t change history, but he can change what happens and has happened in his own life - so he decides to make his world a better place...by getting a girlfriend (Rachel McAdams). But as his unusual life progresses, Tim finds out that his unique gift can’t save him from the sorrows and ups and downs that affect all families, everywhere. From filmmaker Richard Curtis (Love Actually, Notting Hill, Four Weddings and a Funeral), About Time is a comedy about love and time travel, which discovers that, in the end, making the most of life may not need time travel at all.

This is literally one of the most heart-warming movies I've ever seen. Its tone is really balanced and you really get a perspective of the main character's development from a young man to a family father. Everything is really well thought and executed just as well. Truly a masterpiece.

I love time travel movies, everybody does but this is a different type of time travel movie. One of the best. I searched for similar movies but didn't find any. If you have to be knowing any such movie, please recommend.

[@KarlRock]

The movie is a treasure.

[@I17K]

Absolutely

[@mecanzie2741]

There are so many brilliant details in this scene. It starts off with Rory being told off, but the second time, the other lawyer is actually slightly more impressed by his paragraph. In the convenience store the cashier isn't seen in the first scene, but she is in the second, showing Tim's positive interaction with her. He also buys something extra the second time, sending his total from $4.24 to $6.23. This film is so successful at being so incredibly subtle that it really encourages you to go out into the world and find the small details that make life so great. Absolutely fantastic movie.

Finally a shoutout to the most underrated films of the century. My family and I make it an event to watch this once a year altogether. Each time hits different, but is always magical to say the least.

[@MrSpeedyAce]

My wife and I watched this when we were dating 8 years ago. The scene at the end with him having breakfast with his kids is LITERALLY my life right now (2 kids). And it makes me so happy. Also when his dad is like "we all get old and tell the same tale too many times". That's so true. Brilliant film.

[@burhanh.adhami6849]

Last walk with his dad always brings me to tears. Timeless classic. Roger Ebert would be proud

Loved the detail that on the first go we don't see the cashier at all, we only hear her voice, but on the second go at the day she's in full frame.

That’s something I noticed on my watch as well!

[@annab.8724]

Yes, because he was not "seeing" her, but the second time around he actually notices her, and finally "sees" her.

[@christophermesser8622]

This is the best film of all time in my opinion. There is literally everything in it. Comedy, drama, time travel, honest connection, love, hate, happiness, sadness, horror. It's the most beautiful film I have ever seen. I love it.

I love this movie but can no longer watch it. The part where he goes back for one last visit with his dad hits too hard. I lost my mom a couple of years ago without a proper goodbye, with no last visit.

[@keeranjani]

This scene and, more broadly, this movie has changed my outlook on happiness and life more than anything else. Great film with such an amazing, simple message.

[@ThePrincess030288]

Well Taylor Swift once sing 'the greatest films of all time were never made' well, she's clearly haven't see this movie. About Time is with no doubt, the greatest film of all time that ever made.

[@tobiaslollesgaard7389]

hang on. as those who wached the movie will know. this is only the next to last formula to happiness. The movie ends with Tim adopting the new system of only living each day once, but looking out for the small things that we miss or take for granted becouse of stress and then stopping and taking the time to appreciate them. I think this last advise from the from Tim (or Richard Curtis) is the only realy usefull advise. one that we can all adopt to get more injoyment out of eachother. Chears!

- Best Stress buster - Teaches you many things - Makes you think : You live once, You don't have power of do-over, you don't need to have everything perfect, But if you feel every moment of everything *while experiencing* it and *accept* it consciously, you can easily *move on* , then they become the perfect memory for you.

[@findingaway5512]

One of the best movie parts ever. This movie is amazing all the characters and the premise are perfect. Actors are perfect for every role. This is always such a great reminder to get out of our own heads and actually look around at the world for all the small beautiful things that make life so great.

Richard Curtis came very close to spoiling this film and turning it into another 90's sappy mess. But, even with its impossible premise, this movie came out a winner. Also, Gleeson is more likable than the other leading romantic men in Curtis' films. Finally, just a small, personal, point: would I have slept with Margot Robbie and then proceeded to marry Rachel McAdams anyway? Possibly. I mean, yup.

살아가다 이런 저런 여성을 만나며 100일 이상 넘겨본 역사가 없다. 할머니가 돌아가신 날 차인적도 있고 말다툼을 하다 서로 자존심을 내세우다 잡지 않아서 깨진적도 있다. 보통은 그냥 스쳐지나갔다. 나는 그 수가 다른 사람과 비교하면 그렇게 많지 않다라고 스스로 생각한다. 작년 이맘때 미프 어플을 돌리다 맘에 드는 혼혈 여성과 한달 이상 대화를 했었다. 어머니가 한국분이고 아버지가 영국분이라고 했다. 모델처럼 생겼었다. 말투는 사랑이 넘쳐 흘렀다. 혹했다. 영국에 갈까라고 생각했었는데 그 애가 한국에 오겠다고 비행기 티켓을 보여줬다. 난 환호했다. 공항에 나갔지만, 금괴를 가지고 오다 걸렸다고 오백만원을 보내라고 한다. 공항 직원이 피싱인것 같다라고 해서 발길을 돌린다. 로맨스 스캠이다. 20대에는 아무나 만나려고 했었다. 되는대로 만났다. 혈기는 왕성했고 사람을 만나는데 깊게 생각 안했다. 불끈 불끈 솟는 혈기에 잠을 설치기도 한다. 그 고통에 불교를 공부하기도 어떻게 인도까지 가서 요가를 배우기도 한다. 하지만 30대가 되니 몸이 바뀌었다. 10년 전과 비교하여 혈기는 90프로 이상 낮아졌다. 수많은 사건을 겪으며 분명 몸이 예전 몸이 아니다. 지금은 아무나 만나고 싶지가 않다. 성관계를 하는데 있어서도 전희와 후희를 중요하게 생각하기도 하지만 뒤끝도 역시 본다. 뒤끝이 좋아야 한다. 에너지 흡혈귀 같은 사람이 있다. 힘빠진다. 20대와 같이 내 힘은 넘쳐 흐르지 않다. 난 평범하다고 생각한다. 나와 맞는 사람이 좋다. 언어적 표현이 두루뭉술하지만 사실이다. 어떤 사람이라고 단정할 수 없다. 느낌이 좋은 사람이 좋다. 그리고 오래 갈 사람이었으면 좋겠다. 물건을 살때는 오래쓸 수 있는 것 내구성이 있는 것을 선호한다. 하지만 이성을 만날때는 꼭 그렇지도 않다. 약간의 엄마같은 느낌을 주는 여자, 누나 같은 여자, 친구 같은 여자, 동생 같은 여자, 그리고 안맞는 여자들이 있다. 안맞는 사람 중에는 대화의 핀트가 안맞기도 대화가 뚝뚝 끊기기도 할말이 없기도 핵노잼도 있다. 사람마다 받는 느낌은 다르지만 나는 그런 느낌을 받았다. 나는 수행을 몇년하면 이성으로부터 완전히 자유로울 것이라 판단했는데 오판이었다. 그런 일은 거의 일어나지 않는다. 아니면 내 혈기가 다른 사람과 비교하여 높기 때문일지도 모른다. 그래서 나는 젊은이에게 수행을 권하지 않을 것이다. 맞지 않는 음식을 억지로 먹을 필요가 없듯, 종교인이 아니면 수행을 할 필요는 없는 것 같다. 자신과 맞고 오래갈 수 있는 사람이 있다면 그 사람의 인생은 행복할 것이다. 그런 사람은 정말 드물고 마치 행운과 비슷하다. 좋은 대학에 가고 좋은 직장에 가는 것은 쉽지 않다. 좋은 짝을 만나는 것 또한 사람마다 비슷하지만 쉽지 않다. 특히 이쪽은 나이가 깡패다. 나이를 거스르고 이긴다는 것은 정말 고귀하다. 물론 고귀한 것은 드물다. 살아온 경험과 연륜을 녹여 상대방을 분위기로 압도한다는 것은 쉽지 않다. 어떤 사람을 만나야하는가? 사실 모른다. 상대를 만남으로 삶의 질이 높아져야 한다. 행복해야 한다. 상대를 만나 삶의 질이 떨어지고 상대를 만나는게 무겁다면 다시 한번 재고할 필요가 있다. 살면서 다양한 사건을 겪지만 그것을 함께할만한지 아니면 혼자 할 것인지 결정해야한다. 믿고 신뢰할 수있어야 한다. 인생을 어떤 사람과 같이 해야한다면 어떤 사람이 좋은가? 잘못된 선택을 하지 않길 바란다.

It's not about going back in time, it's about our day to day life, and how we ignore simple delights of life.We always live in the past (regret what we could have done, or what we had back then) and ignore what we have in the present, and how beautiful our life is. It's about living in the moment, so you won't regret in the future.
